FAN Iq ^

It's not that much longer before Michael Vick re-enters society, hopefully as a completely new man. Obviously, he's going to be desperate for a paycheck, but before he gets one, some things need to happen.

Hey, does this mean that my Michael Vick cards, and that of his brother, are worth more than a piece of toilet paper?
I have one that is a limited production of about 65. I’m rich!!!!! Our dogs are threatening to eat my card album.

Oh, the horror of it all.

Predicting UFL fails. NY and SF areas already have multiple NFL teams, ORL has Tampa/Jax/Mia teams within 5 hr drive.

They were supposed to have started play in Spring 2008...they were going to have a team in Knoxville...ran commercials but at the last minute had to postpone a year...they have postponed again....

I had not heard about that one. Add to the pile with USFL and XFL. Not sure there is enough room for all those leagues; NFL and NCAA have tremendous followings, coverage, etc. In Texas, high school ball is bigger than the pro indoor league and any semi-pro squads out there.

I think thats his only option. I seriously doubt given the economic circumstances Goodell will allow him back in the NFL any time soon, if ever.

There is no good time for a boycott or picketing.

There are times, like now, when its just bad business to even risk it.
