December 26, 201312 yr Jon Kitna is the one-week 3rd-string QB for the Cowboys this week. He will earn about $50k for the week. He has said he will donate his check to the Seattle high school where he currently teaches math. Jon Kitna donating Cowboys salary to Lincoln High School - CBSSports.com
December 26, 201312 yr Kitna is one of the good dudes in sports. Yes, he is. A few years back my son was traveling from Cincy to Seattle. Struck up a conversation with the guy behind him (long flight); turned out to be Kitna. They got up a Scrabble game with a couple other passengers. Kitna was a nice, unassuming (conversation started out with "I work in Cincinnati but I'm from Washington") guy.
December 26, 201312 yr I think it's great that he's a teacher now. Shows he didn't let the NFL go to his head.
December 26, 201312 yr Nice gesture by Kitna. I wish I could stand in the sidelines for one week and earn $50,000
December 26, 201312 yr Nice gesture by Kitna. I wish I could stand in the sidelines for one week and earn $50,000 You sort of do, right? :sssh:
December 26, 201312 yr How so? Was obviously being flippant, but that you earn your money literally standing / sitting on a sideline.
December 26, 201312 yr Really like Kitna, I was both shocked and happy when I saw that he was the Cowboys 3rd string QB this week. Just a really neat guy.
December 26, 201312 yr Was obviously being flippant, but that you earn your money literally standing / sitting on a sideline. I thought that's what you meant. Now for the $50,000 part...uh lol
December 26, 201312 yr In related news...the Cowboys would rather hire a 41-year old high school teacher than Tim Tebow lol
December 26, 201312 yr In related news...the Cowboys would rather hire a 41-year old high school teacher than Tim Tebow lol Kitna knows the offense, has a decent track record, and is a traditional NFL QB.
December 26, 201312 yr In related news...the Cowboys would rather hire a 41-year old high school teacher than Tim Tebow lol Exactly what I think when I hear teams have interest in Favre, etc. This one kinda makes sense considering Kitnas command of the offense and the changes they'd need to make to accommodate Tebow though.
