Thoughts on Vick signing with the Eagles?
I'm disgusted in our city for putting winning and money before morals. I understand that he payed his time, but what he did was wrong and immoral and he doesn't deserve to make 10 million dollars now.
Re: Thoughts on Vick signing with the Eagles?
We in no way needed a qb and therefore are shooting ourselves in the foot by bringing in unnecessary drama. Even if Vick doesn't play 5 minutes and we win the Super Bowl, it will be tainted by having to hear about him every.single.game.
Obviously I'm opposed to him as a person, wish he got more punishment, but I won't say he can't play anywhere. I just wish it wasn't here for personal and team reasons.
I just don't think someone who could be that cruel to any living thing should be allowed back into such a priveledged life like an NFL player has. I am a huge animal rights person, and just cannot stand by the Eagles organization for hiring him~and mrs.kapow I completely agree with your reasoning too. Of all the positions that the Eagles need, did we really need another quaterback, especially one that is usually the main quarterback and not a second string? Its insane! And another thing that really bothers me, is the Eagles decided not to resign Brian Dawkins, an excellent player and an excellent community service person~but they will sign on this scumbag. To me it says a lot about the Eagles management. Disgusting.
I think the Eagles are idiots for signing him!!! They are loosing ALOT of fans b/c of it...I for one refuse to watch them.
My fiancee and I were saying last week that a team would have to be pretty desperate to sign him and the EAGLES did!!!!!!!!

I said almost the exact same thing to my H in the car coming home from the game last night. I'm not a huge football fan in general and last night was my first game. But once the news started to spread, most people weren't paying attention to the game anymore. The negative publicity and possible protests are going to be a huge distraction.
I have no clue what the eff he's doing in Philly. This was literally the worst choice for him. We don't need another QB and the whole thing is disgraceful.
I think he's scum for what he did to animals for 6 years. In no way is he a 'reformed' man just because he spent 2 years in jail.
What a huge dirtbag. I don't think anyone in Philly is going to welcome him with open arms.
I don't believe for one second that he's rehabilitated. He admitted that he's been involved in dog fighting since he was a young child. We're supposed to believe that after 18 months in jail and absolutely no therapy he's 100% "recovered" and repentent? Don't think so. He's doing what most scumbags in his situations would be doing - saying whatever he thinks the public wants to hear so he can get what he wants.
Jeffrey Lurie said that the organization will be on top of Vick to make sure he is very involved in the community and with the Humane Society. I hope that wasn't just a line, but I'm thinking it probably was. FWIW, I think Vick needs to still be in jail, then should be in therapy for a few years. And he never should have been allowed back in the NFL.
