Let's see,

Off Field:
Spreading STD
Weed in water bottle
Fighting dogs
Interstate gambling
Smoking weed in limo
Failed drug test while waiting to go to court

On field:
Not giving 100% every play
Quitting on the field
Flipping off home town fans

I did see him and that was the first thing I said to my wife,,,look at this clown saying this stuff,,,the same words almost verbatim he's been saying since he got caught. It's like everything he's been saying is in a loop and he's a robot saying the same thing over and over again. People who are trying to change their ways have some emotion because it has impacted them in some way. My big disappointment comes from Tony Dungee who is mentoring this POS,,,Tony is a really good man and when he was coaching the Colts he was available to talk to with the crowd and people in general,,I lived there during their glory days. I feel bad that he has hitched his wagon to a guy who is going to let him down and probably make a fool out of both of them.

Right on the button,,,,he speaks with all the emtion of R2D2.

I admit, I'm an die hard eagles fan, and I'm excited to see him come in this year, and hopefully get us a Super Bowl Win!

I can almost gaurantee you that teams like Pittsburgh, teams with ownership integrity didn't even sniff Vick. It's no suprise that teams like Baltimore, Cinncinnati and Phiily were among the 5 teams that expressed interest......I'm sure the Raiders were interested, as well.

Keep in mind Vick LIED to law enforcement when he was charged with dog fighting. Only after his buddies turned him in did he change his tune. Vick is a pathological liar. He's been torturing and killing dogs for YEARS, including throwing family pets into dog fighting rings because he thought it was funny. So now he's done his time and been released......and no public statements of remorse.....NOTHING...until he signed a contract. Why? Either he's stupid or he's not sorry. I think it's both. On a good note, he did find the time to go to a strip club his first night out and attend a couple thug rapper parties.....he's really trying hard to change, huh?

Agent: Michael Vick signs with Philadelphia Eagles - CNN.com

I woulda liked him to come to the Patriots. Bill Belicheck said they made an offer to him, but the Eagles offered better.

He has messed up, big, in the past. But he is an incredible athlete and I think he is an asset to any team. People tend to over estimate the influences of a person on a whole team. We all know of the big names like Manny Ramirez and Terrell Owens. If he had came to the Patriots your sure as hell he would have been kept on a very tight leash (get it!? oh my, dog jokes about Vick, hahah! love it!).



The guy has had 2 years to think and reflect about what hes done in the past and how he had essentially ruined his life. I don't think there will be much more problems with Vick. Only time will tell.

As much as I hate the Pats...it would of been a good fit with the way the team is run...umm Randy Moss??


I think if given the chance he will be different person and help the eagles..super bowl because of him..I dont think so..it is nice to hear the McNabb had lobbied for him.

Change we CANT believe in for sure.

Here's a backstory to this tag line: "One of the reasons Arnold Palmer played so well is that, before each final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them." - US Open TV Commentator

Johnny Carson had Arnolds wife on his show along time ago and asked her what she did to help him win all those tournaments. She innocently answered that she would kiss his golf balls for good look,,,,to which Johnny would give that look he was known for and casually answered her,,," Well,,,,,,I bet that flutters his putter!"

Being a cowboys fan I absolutely love that the Eagles are experiencing the "Mike Vick Experience"

Maybe McNabb will be out with one of his seasonal injuries and Vick will get to Qb. That should make for a fairly easy victory.

I agree, but at least it is doing some good. Can't say I have any positive vibs for Vic.
