NEW YORK Michael Vick has been conditionally reinstated by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
Vick can participate without delay in preseason practices, workouts and meetings and can play in the final two preseason games if he can find a team that will sign him.

Here is an article that just posted that mentions the Redskins and three other teams I mentioned.

If they let Ty Cobb in, they should let Pete Rose in.
Now THAT is a statement I think we can all agree on. I still cannot fathom what he was thinking (or NOT thinking) when he involved himself in that activity. He had SO much going for him.
I truly do hope that he has learned from his mistakes and that he decided to permanently change his attitude and his approach towards life while he was in prison. Lord knows he had a lot of time to mull things over. I guess we'll know eventually. The media is going to be all over this guy like flies on dog poop.
Depending on how you classify it, you're either the first or second one.
This might be fun...
Looks to me like the punishment has been paid. Let him play.
“Good.......Then Pete Rose should be put in the Baseball Hall of fame!”
I agree.
If Colt Brennan can redeem himself from his Colorado days, so can Vick from his dog days.
I’m Falcon fan.
Vick was very good player, I wish him well. I would like to see him back in Atlanta backing up Matty Ice., but that’s not going to happen. He lied to owner.
Anyway it will be Falcons and Chargers in this years Super Bowl.
Good. Here's you're reward.
LOL
Falcons schedule is too tough this year. I bet the Falcons go 7 and 9 this year.
Kansas City would never take him. They have to much class.
Add Denver to your list. Or maybe Kyle Orton will lead them to the promised land....
As for the laughingstock of the NFL, AKA, the Browns, nothing would suprise me if they took a gamble too...
....wait for it....
I am the first and I’ll put my dog up against anyone else’s that says otherwise!
OK, gotta go, I obviously need to get away from the computer. Good luck.
I have now heard San Francisco, Minnesota and now Tampa Bay.
Pros & Cons - a pretty good book on this...
You can't just drop that and run. My sheppard or my pit would dominate the 60-75 pound weight class.
How would Browns fans react?
If they signed him the drunk idiots would hoot and holler just like the sheeple they are.
Smells like another bad 5-11 record no matter what!!
Really good post.
