im not arguing thir consistancy in ;evel of play...just in their entertainment level.

i guess if you are super educated when it comes to playing skills and and nfl talent, then the better the player=the more entertaining

but, most people, myself included, have no idea if a player has got real SKILL or not..its all about the glamourous plays, the long bombs, the juke moves, and the big hits.

who is really going to notice a defensive linemans technique when he does a swim move on the center lol.. very few people

I get your point, but most all of the guys on that list are playmakers. Westbrook, Brady, Moss, LT, Peterson - etc. I do have a few guys on there that only football fans would appreciate. Vick is prolly one of the best athletes that ever walked the earth, but he is a crappy QB......it's weird.

Imo the biggest playmaker in the NFL is Adrian Petterson, the kids a man child.

Great Vick is jailed for years because he killed some dogs,but a women shoots her husband in the back of the head with a shotgun ,while hes sleeping,and gets 200 days in jail.What a great justice system.Marion Jones will do as much time as a women who blasts her husband.

of course the justice system fails. i don;t think they did here though. i believe that he should have gotten time

Epic stereotypical inability to manage money. Lets see now, M.C. Hammer, Mike Tyson, Michael Vick, and the list goes on...Who would've thought pure-bred arabian horses, gold plating everything, and diamonds in their teeth weren't good investments?

Ther was/is a pitcher with the NYM, contract was 270K...he got robbed of 270K worth of jewelry from his spring training camp hotel.

Award winning plan.

Would not change a thing.

Vick is the scum of scum but anyone who thinks he is done is a retard...The guy will come out of jail and get himself back into elite athlete shape and if he is smart, he will sign a 1 year deal with someone as a punt returner/wide receiver and light up the field...He then will be able to get a 3 year deal...Even in his mid 30's, he will still have the natural ability that most on the field can only dream of...The sucks ass as a quarter back...And he should leave that pipe dream alone...He has always been in the wrong position...He plead guilty because he was told that he will be given a second chance by the public...And he will...

I don't thinbk teams are going to be eager to have animal rights groups picketing their stadiums.

Think about the PR nightmare

Vick will be working with these people when he gets out...It will all be set up...These organizations know that type of money he will be able to generate for them...Esp/in the inner cities...There is still a good story that can come from the Vick situation...Him pleading guilty was the first step toward this...

PETA is seen by most as being terroists and the SPCA will be the likely candidate for Vick to work with...

Animal rights groups will noit take a cent from him.

Wayne Pacelle, my fellow HS school graduate, is president of the America Humane Society.

I really think, as a fellow donor and ON the board of our high school (private school), I will contact him about starting a campaign against reinstating vicjk to NFL

It will happen one of two ways...Either the SPCA see a good thing in Vick in getting people together for animal rights or Vick goes and starts his own inner city type animal rights movement...If there is money to be had, the SPCA who kills millions upon millions of animals a year is not going to turn its back on something that can generate tremendous interest...This is a guy who will be on every talk show pushing for animal rights...It would almost be criminal for someone like the SPCA (who in some peoples mind abuses animals themselves) to not be on board something that can generate so much income for unwanted animals...

Remember Magic Johnson, when he made his aids announcement years ago, turns out he was a big patron of strip clubs and that element (big surprise)

Well, it is said that he STILL lives that lifestyle.

I'm not saying i agree with it...I myself would rather see Vick back in the NFL for one game and as I'm watching it on sunday afternoon with my feet up I witness a sniper blow his fcking head off...But thats just me...He pleaded guilty for one reason i believe...And thats so he would be given another chance down the road...His lawyers went over everything with him...They always look for the upside of everything...What i posted above is what i believe will be the upside...I don't like it...But it is the world we live in...

yes true...Magic was also rumored to be a tink...Which may be how he contracted HIV...Some say that when this all went down, Issiah Thomas was sweating bullets waiting for test results...

Vick is rotten to the core I'm sure...But the sheep of the country want to believe different...And these are the people he will try to convince he has changed...He will only have a very small window to make back some of the money he lost...But in the end, it probably won't matter for he will end up basically pennyless looking for a bood deal by the time he hits 40
