Rumblings: Fly Eagles Fly, On The Road To Vick-tory
>>> I know, you’re shocked, right? An all-Eagles rumblings? So are we. But there is news. With the news of QB Kevin Kolb getting hurt breaking yesterday, no less than two Bleacher Report columnists are strongly suggesting that the Eagles look into… Michael Vick! Their reasoning: Philadelphia fans are basically animals who deserve to die anyway, and, uh, this is something that Vick (pictured at right, getting Photoshop justice) knows about. Groan. [BleacherReport]
>>> So we can’t help but wondering: Did the very idea of Vick becoming an Eagle cause one fan to throw their entire set of Eagles tailgating gear onto Craiglist? Or is that just good old fashioned recession clearing-out? We may never know. [Craigslist]
>>> Meanwhile, Vegas odds on a Vickless Eagles winning the SuperBowl are 12:1. So now you know. [USAPlayers]

That would be horrible. After TO, I don’t see us taking a guy like vick.

Nice to see some more Eagles news on Philebs even if it’s not the best news. Personally, I’d be surprised if the Birds took a flyer on Vick even though he’s paid his debt to society and is now being mentored by Tony Dungy. I guess it depends on how much they want to try the wildcat.

Great idea. Given the state of the Eagles OL, Vick’s career could be ended in the first pre-season game.

Kolb is out for the first preseason game at minimum, maybe the 3 or 4th at maximum. All these Vick rumours are slow-August-commentators’ wet dreams.

Why is Vick even being allowed back in the NFL?! The man is basically poison at this point.
That said, I’ve been an Eagles fan my entire life, even during the 90′s when the average season only saw about 3 wins. They get Vick… fuck ‘em. I’m done.

Agree with expat attack. There is absolutely nothing to this.

Vick isn’t becoming an Eagle, let me repeat, MICHAEL VICK IS NOT JOINING THE EAGLES!
No way would the fans or this city let him play here after what he did. Expect him to join some southern or midwest team where no cares about dog abuse. ie Houston Texans, St. Louis Rams, etc.
