Thing is, they weren't even in the room.
In fact, there was no room, unless you count the chat room. Mr. McNabb was being limo'd from Manhattan down to Vet Stadium Philly, and was talking on a cell phone to someone in the Eagles office. They read the chat questions to him, and he answered, and they typed it into the chat room.
"Are these McNabb quotes?" one of the reporters even asked as I copied and pasted the chat room text into the website. The game was afoot.
They wouldn't get to actually talk to McNabb for another hour or two, and may have been able to make an early story deadline by using those quotes.
