Vick signs with the Eagles

[atomic charvel guy]

for the rest of his life shawnny boy.

[Hellbat]

Atlanta should give away free stuffed dogs if he plays there just for the mayhem factor...

[Jacksons Shred]

He's a slippery weasel Horse-lol
I think it's a great deal at 1.6 million. That's chickenfeed for an NFL team.

Definitely. I don't follow on NFL anymore, but at 1.6 Mill I really fail to see how signing a big name to your team, who's a good player, and who's going to be some attention to your team is a bad move at 1.6 mill.

Bingo. As with everything else in life-We shall see in time

Vick would have been better off in the public eye if he killed a man instead of dogs. People in general get more fired up about hurting animals than other humans. I'm ok with that because I like some animals better than I like some humans. Do you see protesters following around stallworth carrying protest signs? Me either. But vick won't be able to show his face in public without being chastised (not saying he doesn't deserve it)
Ravens have a murderer playing LB named Ray Lewis playing for them.No one seems to mind.

[Jacksonguy666]

four of those teams are named after animals - Vick will have no problems

fantastic joke

[jcs21]

.... Do you see protesters following around stallworth carrying protest signs? ....

You will see protesters when/if he actually gets back on the field.

Since he's out for the year suspended, the Browns should have cut him and voided the contract, unless the bargaining agreement doesn't allow that. He's worse of a scumbag than Vick, that's for sure and I absolutely wouldn't want him back with the Eagles.

bullseye fusion!!! Vick is the only one who has lost everything and did significant time in prison. Ray Lewis, Pacman Jones, Tank Johnson, the secondary of the minnesota vikings on that boat cruise-lol, none of them lost all they had. Not even close. This is why I think Vick won't even be seen jaywalking anytime soon. The Eagles are a strong organization, it's not like he signed with dallas or Oakland ya know.

To me it makes no sense. First of all, Henley is enough of an ass for the Eagles. They don't need 2. Walsh plays the f'd up guy, so Vick's general lack of common sense isn't going to do anything there.

So what, he's a replacement for Don Felder? I doubt it, but could be passable, since Feder's vocals are only heard on "Visions", and that's only because he wrote it and jerkface Henley threw him a bone. I have no idea what his chops are like on guitar, but for $1.6 million I guess we're about to find out. But there's no WAY he replaces Randy Meisner. Can you imagine listening to him trying to cover "Take it to the Limit" or "One of These Nights"? Total joke.

If I have to listen to him try to harmonize on Hotel California, I may just spontaniously shit my pants, and not in joy.

Terrible pickup for the Eagles.

[atomic charvel guy]

That's bullshit Vass, and you know it!!!
Henley runs a 14.4- 40 yard dash now, rendering him worthless at this time. "Walsh" invented the West Coast offense way back in the James Gang, it's a perfect fukkin' fit, open your eyes man-lol

[skorb]

I just love how everyone's all "he's changed" and "he says what he did was wrong"

yeah right

lol at anyone who believes that.

he's just aping the words everyone wants/expects to hear. he's no different now than he ever was, mark my words. he may follow the rules now cause he has no choice but he's no different. other than having lost a step or three in prison.

[atomic charvel guy]

he's lost more than any other athlete in history,you might be right, he may not be changed inside, but i'll bet anyone on this board he doesn't fuck up off the field now after paying for his crime. I think he's too young still to have lost any significant ability. but we'll see soon enough, he'll be on the practice field tomorrow.

[joelayres]

I will be bringing some D cells to throw at his dog-killing head.

Please throw a few for me as well.

[broken_fusion]

I think the time off will extend his career significantly. He'll hold the clipboard and play a little this year. Maybe a little more next year. Possibly a starter by next year. So thats what 3 or 4 seasons without full weekly contact? Thats huge . Look at the beatings guys like Brady and Rothlisberger have taken so far in their short careers.
As long as he can still play half decent and doesn't fuck up I bet he'll be around another ten years. He's using the Eagles as a stepping stone. If he can show some promise and get some other teams interested in him this year,he'll be shopping for a starting position elsewhere next year. And who the fuck cares anyway? STEELERS rule.

[leftybob]

Are you an Eagles fan in Cali ? Vick just has to proove his words. Anyone can be rehabed ... Eagles are giving him a shot.
Those throwing batteries and ripping someones potential for change better not have any indescressions in their past is all I have to say.

Alot of people in philly are not happy about this. the Eagles are even in talks with all of their sponsors and business partners about this whole ordeal. They're asking lots of questions-lol
Vick has some big guns behind him though, Tony Dungy vouching for him McNabb etc. etc.
