Yes I know the Eagles signed Michael Vick
Not sure how I feel about it but I'm taking it one day at a time. Yes, I know what he did - I think it is beyond horrible. And if I'm correct the bulk of his salary will be used to pay off fines owned for what he has done but the man did complete his sentence.

Personally I think Vick can do one of two things - one is he could return to what got him in trouble in the first place. But the other, and the road I hope he takes, he can use this second chance the NFL is giving him and use it for some good. Speak out against animal abuse, raise money for it;s cause, show remorse to the world for what you have done.

Rumor has it, if Vick is healthy and can play he may be used for positions other than QB - the guy was fast.

1. How will Vick get along with Henley and Frey?
Not to mention that freak Joe Walsh

2. I dunno what other position they've got for him. They just drafted Jeremy Maclin out of Missouri...
and that guy can FLY. So, not really an available receiver position. I think Vick will pretty much serve as backup to McNabb, who is, after all, four years older than Vick, which can be a lifetime in pro ball. If McNabb gets hurt, the Eagles will still be able to go strong.
