Just trying to reach the level of the NBA!
Oh Vikings! HELlllooooo..
Who needs a NFL legend QB when ya can get a felon instead? ;-)
“if he can find a team that will sign him.”
Wonder if the Browns will sign him.
...wait for it...
Good. He paid his dues. Take him, Vikes and put these torturous Favre rumors out of their misery.
It’s always about Money....who cares about right or wrong.
The NBA and NFL have become thug leagues.
Soon to be a Raider.......
Every person is entitled to redemtion. Vic paid his dues, has apparently seen his life turned around. If he’s still got an arm, I say give the guy a shot.
Yup. He did the time,, will still have to do community service so.. he will be motivated.
He’d fit right in with the Vikes, both as part of a running regime and all the other miscreants they have had and have there these days..:-)
any word on if he’ll be suspended or not for the first few games of the season?
One last shot from Al Davis for the end zone..
Who knows? we could have a bidding war ..
Washington, Oakland, Buffalo, Cleveland, St Louis, Miami, Jacksonville, Kansas City and New England are all considered possible teams.
Nah, the Bengals. Our “redeemer/owner” Mikey-boy Brown will sign him. Sigh.
Oh.....what an absolute shock /s
It looks like a 4 game suspension or so if things go right so he could actually play in october per article.
Good.
Unlike some other felons currently playing in the NFL, Mr. Vick actually served a prison sentence and has, as they say, “paid his debt to society”. A
And, since his chosen profession was not and is not related to the crimes for which he was convicted, there is no reason he should not be allowed to resume it.
The American legal system cared about right and wrong, that’s why Vick went to jail.
