We Want Vick, We Want Vick


I LOVE MICHAEL VICK!!!! Did I say that out loud? Well I meant it… I love Mike Vick!
Former Atlanta Falcons, Quarterback, Michael Vick has been conditionally reinstated by NFL’s commissioner, Roger Goodell. Although Vick will be suspended for four games, the surprise now is finding out which team will sign him!
I am a St. Louisian... and I would love to see Vick throwing that ball in Saint Louis. Wishful thinking, but it is so unlikely. The Rams are too d@mn upity to make such an adventurous or would that be a risky move? Michael Vick still has fans, I believe he still has that talent too. I cant wait to see what lucky team actually nabs this dude. He is going to do great things, that is if he gets some clock!
I really want to know why are so many people trying to crucify him all over again??? This 29 year old was once the highest paid quarterback in the league (at one point). He had gained the world and within a twinkling of an eye, he turned around and lost it all. Vick was suspended from the league indefinitely, he received a 29 month jail sentence, he filed bankruptcy, he has lost some fans, and the list of losses go on and on. Obviously God is on his side. Somewhere in the bible it says “if God be for you, who can be against you?” I am sure Michael Vick regrets his actions and the decisions he has made, but God gave this young man a talent and another opportunity with the NFL. Many have expressed that they will not be interested in him, but there are many teams and players that do want Vick on their team! Wherever Vick goes, he will have some fans, he may not start, but he will produce those good numbers! Mike Vick has paid he debt to society plus some… can we please let his crime go? There are others who have taken the lives of human beings and have not been punished to the extent that Vick has. Let this young man live his life, and how bout the media go on with theirs.

Like I said wishful thinking, for him to even be considered for the team... but anything at this point would help the Rams. A good quarterback would be the first key!!!
