I dont mind players sticking up for Vick, asking for him to be pardoned for a serious crime is just ridiculous. At this point the Atlanta Falcons should start cutting away all the crap that they've accumulated over the years. Take a few years at the bottom and build from there. While Vick was at QB there was never a good enough WR there to pull in his passes, because it would take an exceptional WR to consistantly hook up with Vick to have any effect. Irrespective, I believe that if your going to win the Superbowl you need a great pocket-passer and Vick wasnt that. And with the amount of salary he could wrangle im not sure if the Falcons could build a decent team around him anyway. Any talent they had on Defense has jumped ship, and bringing in John Abraham wasnt a great move. Theres a lot of holes to be filled on this team and its going to take a long time to fill them. A new QB with a good WR corp, and a whole new defense. Im a Falcons fan and I was really amazed by that T-shirt.

That former teammates would support their friend no matter what. There's nothing wrong with a coach engaging in backdoor negotiations, quitting during the season, lying to everyone, and abandoning his entire staff. perfectly reasonable. I'll bet vick never woke up and said "dude, I'm gonna go kill some dogs, send myself to jail and cost myself millions, and oh yeah, screw over the falcons", but petrino pretty deliberately and knowingly screwed people who had put their trust in him. and you can't blame him for that? We'll make a note of this for the next time anyone's integrity comes into question. Yeah, that’s the problem. That former teammates would support their friend no matter what.

ATL should be in Mensa at this point. I hope they don't break the 'fins streak; it just suits them so perfectly. :) Supposedly you learn more from your mistakes. ATL should be in Mensa at this point.
