VICK DA GREAT

[SkinBasket]

'Cause it took balls to come back to the league after the shit he did?

Yes, tremendous courage. In fact, Vick himself explained that no one could have endured what he did alone. Because he's a victim.

I hear the Vickster may be heading to Minny

I will say... Vick may have given the eagles a better chance to win against teh cowboys then mcnabb. Mcnabb looked absolutely horrendous, meanwhile Vick faked a run and got a 76 yard TD pass.

So... yeah. Something tells me that vick may have given them a better chance.

If Andy Reid was starting to agree with you, it all went away after the horrible handoff and absolutely no effort to retrieve the loose ball right in front of his face.

Watch the replay. It's like he didn't even want the ball... strange play.

Vick's comeback was probably the most overrated story last offseason. His season was a joke.

Would/could it have turned out differently if McNabb didn't complain about his "rhythm" early in the season?

What if, I know...

But it's interesting the main reason he went to the Eagles was because of McNabb's blessing (gotta be careful with these drama queens) and he looked primed to play a large role in the offense and then zap... McNobb makes a comment and you don't see Vick until (really, but not really) the Atlanta game at the end(ish) of the year.

All in all, though... you're right. Such a huge story, such a huge fizzzzzzzzle......

[TennesseePackerBacker]

The media obviously blew it out of proportion, just like everything else. Anyone could see McNabb had control of the team and the Vick move was nothing more than giving the guy a chance, some good PR, and MAYBE they ship him for a draft pick during the season.

Re: VICK DA GREAT

now that he's released from prison hopefully he can get his life back in order and be given a chance to continue his career

i think it was awesome that the great man tony dungy visited him a couple of weeks ago to discuss life after jail (1st book quiet strength is excellent and is one of the publications we've read and continue to reference in my small group at church). there are more important things in life than sports and im sure dungy addressed that with vick; he's a creation of God first and foremost and im sure he's seeking HIS forgiveness.

unfortunately, it will be MUCH harder obtaining the forgiveness of many individuals who will continue to despise him as a result of his previous behaviors. im grossed out by dog fighting, as well as any other killings and macabre undertakings (including hunting).

personally, i feel spousal abuse and even infidelity are more deleterious acts perpetrated by many athletes and laymen alike. many ppl who probably want him banned for life do and have done worse things depending on one's moral compass.

here's to vick having learned his lesson and getn back on the right track; would love to see him entertaining me with his dazzln ahtleticism again. just PLEASE not in a playoff game at lambeau; dayum, that still stings - sherman was terrible......unless, of course, he's wearing green....its going to take a strong owner to bring him in for sure. or one who's not as concerend about his peer's opinion of him ala al davis

.....anyway....


GET VICK!!!

I'm just thrilled he's getting a well deserved second chance.

[Joemailman]

The timeline given by Vick's attorney to prove Vick wasn't there at the time of the shooting is, to say the least, in dispute.

He may be getting a well deserved second chance at jail.

And isn't life all about second chances?

I ain't known as Rastak for nothing.....back to our regularly scheduled football talk.....

Yet you take shots at weed smokers...

Fraudulent Rasta

Im not down with weed eaters. They require far too much maintainance. Weed smokers...in moderation...always came to ... pretty cool in my experience. The key word is moderation and too often some people get carried away and they escalate their drug use....end up on CRACK or worse maybe a little Meth. Real nice drug.

Ahhhh shit did I say something anyway positive about weed I have to be cautious of CSIS. The Canadian Security and Investigative Service - branch of policing Canada. Just mention weed and you'll end up on some list till your dust.

Final analysis...Weed is bad.
