ATLANTA - Former Atlanta Falcons superstar Michael Vick is returning to professional football.

But he’s not going to be a part of the Falcons.

Vick is going to be the offensive coordinator for a new team in The Alliance of American Football.

"I'm just looking forward to being the best offensive coordinator I can be," Vick told Channel 2's Anthony Amey .

The former Falcons superstar will be the offensive coordinator of a new professional football team. We'll have coverage on Channel 2 Action News at Noon.

The team will be coached by Brad Childress and will play its games at the old Turner Field.

The league is set to begin in February.

The only other team announced so far is Orlando. That team will be coached by Steve Spurrier.

If he were to commit some heinous act against me, I would be glad to forgive.

But, for some idiot torturing helpless animals to death, forgiveness isn’t mine to give.

I can’t forgive someone who did no harm to me.

I think this is an “anti-kneeler” league. If thats the case then I’m in.

Mike Vick as offensive coordinator: “okay fellas, we’re going to run the play where the QB takes the snap, surveys the defense for 2 seconds, then runs.”
Players: “Again?”

Yes, I noted that after I reread the article. I will support any real alternative to the disgraceful, anti-American nfl.

If it proves a success, the NFL will have to either change its ways, Fire Goodell, or fold...................

I can’t speak to what is in Mr. Vick’s heart at this point. But I can say that he was on his very best behavior as a backup QB here in Pittsburgh.

So you are equating the value of a human to a dog?

Vick abused dogs which is reprehensible, the folks you listed are mass murderers or worse.
