Default Vick suspended indefinitely

I didn't really think they would suspend him indefinitely. Somehow I thought the NFL would keep him pending final outcome.

i dont respect what he did as a person, but damn he used to be one of my favorite players...even IF they do ever let him back, i dont think i'd be able to look at him the same way knowing what he did...

You are searching my friend.

The Falcons have a bad staff and ownership.

Look at the 3 most succesful teams in history.

The Steelers...Cowboys and 49'ers.

See any corn row thugs in there?

Nope.

I think Vick has a 50/50 chance of playing again. Someone may take a chance on him at QB (Al Davis [&:]). There was a time that the best Qb's in the world hung out in the pocket. Vick was the golden child in regard to mobile QB's (magical athlete), but I think it is changing back. Look at the current MVP...running is not the emphasis ofhis game. Will the game have changed when Vick gets out of prison (two to three years)? I think so. Roger Goodell is not putting up with any bull****, and Vick is on his **** list...we'll see how that works out, as well.

By the way...corn row thugs refers to an attitude...a mentality...not a group of people.

Understand?

The final outcome happened, he plead guilty. It's over except for the penalty phase.

Nope not searching at all BMG .. Arthur Blank hasn't been at the helm too long and I think he's taken and taking them the right direction. Granted they don't have the history the Steelers do but NFL no longer really has dynasties and things change drastically for teams every year. Our Braves our a prime example; they sucked out loud for years until new ownership and *** had a few years to get things going in the right direction. Falcons are on the right path .. and I don't know how you can judge much else about them since they have a new coach this year and many new players. They did already lose D.J. Shockley to injury as quarterback replacement so yes a lot is up in the air right now but I don't think the loss of Vick is that crushing really since their defense was just fine last year and the offense wasn't up to par so losing him might actually be a benefit .. better focus instead of all on one person now.

I'm sure Vick will play somewhere one way or another in the future .. If NFL doesn't let him play he'll go play Canadian or European league until they allow him back like so many before him have done .. domestic abuse charges, murder charges, whatever .. they've all come back to play. The public here has short term memories and in a few years they'll all want him back on their teams ... watch and see; they say hell no now but if he's playing at a caliber that can help their teams in a few years they'll shove all that other stuff under the rug.
