NOTICE TO NFL TEAMS: SIGN MICHAEL VICK, NOW!!!

Controversy creates cash. The biggest risk in life is not taking one (that one is for you Baum).

Ok so maybe the previous statements were full of cliches, but the point being is that NFL GM's should wake up and take a chance on the quarterback formally known as Ron Mexico. Now, I am not going to sit here and try to convince you that Michael Vick is a good human being or that he has honestly turned his life around after his 23 (ish) months in federal confinement. What I am going to try to do is explain from a football standpoint why someone NEEDS to take a risk and sign him to a year long contract, in the NFL.

Let's face it people, Michael Vick is arguably the most athletic human being alive. Yes, I know he was in prison and wasn't able to workout like he would if was in an NFL training camp somewhere but c'mon, that kind of athletic ability doesn't just disappear. Give him a contract, put him through training camp, let him continue to workout with a high profile trainer Tom Shaw, give him a fews weeks into the season to get back into game shape and you've got yourself one hell of a talented player. I think we all can agree that there are numerous teams out there in dire need of a talented athlete that averages 7.4 yards a carry for his career. The wildcat formation is spreading as fast as the swine flu in the NFL and the ability to add a guy like Michael Vick into a formation like that could be a game changer for many teams.

Let's not completely rule out the idea that this guy could play quarterback again as well, somewhere. In the NFL, the talent of quarterbacks is very top heavy. Many teams have average at best QBs. Vick is just that, an average quarterback. The biggest difference, Michael Vick has superhuman abilities (man I love watching those videos). In 2006, he did average 12.1 yards per completion, above the league average.

At the end of the day, I just think the potential reward of a guy as talented as Michael Vick is worth the risk to me. A team like the St. Louis Rams could use the boost, not only in talent, but in terms of excitement as well. As for the whole PETA thing, they will have to call off the dogs eventually and just let the man show the world that he can still fight, I mean play(as Ballhawk would say, that is a pun on words).

If all else fails, I'll being the first one to order a UFL Orlando hat as soon as he signs his contract.. woof woof!!

--The Truth

Can't think of any better way to celebrate being out of jail...

Than going to a strip club with A.I. C'mon! Yes!

Ok, so the lawyers are saying it isn't true. That Iverson and Vick didn't hit up the strip club together a couple nights ago in Virginia Beach. It probably is just a rumor, but if it were true it would probably be one of the sadder and more enlightening nights in sports in the past 15 years.

You have former number one picks from both the NBA and the NFL. Both players changed their respective games as soon as they entered the league. A.I. crossed up Jordan. Mike Vick beat Brett Favre and the Packers in Lambeau.

Now they are (allegedly) sitting together, calmly, cooly taking in and basking in the wide array of beautiful naked women that Virginia has to offer. The interesting thing here is that, they could have been doing this six or seven years ago and it would have seemed normal, almost perfect.

Now it is sad. Iverson continues to try to hang on to his career (he can still score 20 by putting up 40 shots a night). And Vick is hoping to revive his.

It is Vick that will receive all the attention for his (alleged) rendezvous at the club. Just out of jail for electrcuting dogs, awaiting a meeting with commissioner Roger Goodell to determine his fate, many people will point to a visit to a strip club as a sign that he shows no remorse and has not changed.

Last time I killed a dog in a strip club...the owner did not care for it very much. Here, the whole time I thought the two sort of went hand-in-hand. Look, Vick could have scored some crack...raped a chick...got a hooker...killed something else...etc etc etc, but he didn't. He did something (allegedly) completley legal instead. I'd say he has taken a step in the right direction.

Now it seems though that none of this ever happened. That the DJ at the club is a liar/idiot/both. But this is just such a good and easy rumor. No one, upon first hearing that Vick and Iverson went to a strip club they day Vick got released from house arrest went, "no way!?" or "that can't be true!?" because it is totally reasonable to think that two former number one picks would spend their Tuesday night at a strip club in Virginia Beach. I guess everybody gets bored during baseball season.
