2010 Season - "Hide your Beagle, Vick is still an Eagle"

[madinmaryland]

The Eaglets picked up the option for Vick for the 2010 season.

1. Let's hope they bomb royally...n/t

8. Don't worry, they will. The organization clearly doesn't believe in taking

the extra step to make us a Super Bowl team.

But still, fuck your Patriots :)

2. I'm recommending this for the thread title

3. Vick is very proud of himself for that Ed Block Courage Award

"Felt like I displayed courage and sportsmanship and leadership."

Yeah, just keep patting yourself on the back, asshole.

4. He does have Courage. It takes alot of courage to continually get hit by

dog feces thoughout the season!

5. Doesn't mean anything other than that they retain his rights.

He will almost certainly be dealt. Word is they're trying to get a second round pick for him but I'm thinking they'll be lucky to get a fourth. Then again they did get a second rounder for A.J. Feeley a few years ago.

As far as I'm concerned, the sooner he goes, the better. It's an ongoing embarrassment.

6. *snort*

The Beagle Killers will be lucky if they only have to give away a second rounder to get rid of Vick!

7. Don't be too surpised.

QBs are at a premium. The Rams, the Bills, the Panthers, the Cards, the Niners, the Browns and several others can use one. And, hate him or despise him, as poor at the position as he is, Vick is better than any option in those cities. The Birds will get something for him. It's nearly impossible that they'll pay him $5 million to sit on the bench.

9. The reports are that other teams are contacting the Eagles about McNabb or Kolb, not Vick

Meanwhile, Paolantonio also said that the well has gone dry on Mike Vick, and that no one is interested in trading for him. "St. Louis has dried up," Paolantonio said. "Buffalo, dried up."

It appears, then, that the Eagles are banking on something occurring later in the year to create a market for Vick. Possibilities include a starting quarterback struggling in offseason drills, a torn ACL injury during red-jersey practices or the preseason, or the decision of a 40-year-old quarterback who runs a very similar offense not to return for another season come August.
