We are flipping between an Astros/Marlins game and the Cardinals/Steelers - did the announcers of the football game really just laugh at the announcement of Vick going to the Eagles? I did hear something like “support in place”..... what is that supposed to mean?

The Steelers have class and would not tolerate someone like Vick.

The Steelers have shed many good players with bad behavior off the field.

The Eagles now have 3 quarterbacks -— McNabb, Vick and Feely.

That is not going to work in the long run.

Agreed, but he paid his dues. Time to let him move on.

yeah as long as we can watch football who cares what Obama does. We can watch Olberman on the NFL broadcast on NBC. Vick should not be allowed back in the league.

The NFL should not be a place for criminals, muderers, dog killers, people who bet on dog killing or people who bet on other games.

As a Steelers fan, you should be!

Let’s face it, if he does well, the Philly fans will embrace him, and if not, look out for the “boo birds” to beat him like a dog! 8 ^)

Shouldn't be, but is. He sacked up for what the law required and in America, that is enough.

yeah as long as we can watch football who cares what Obama does.

Give it a rest, some Americans can do both at the same time. Don't like football, don't watch it. Another great thing about America.

Dog fighting attracts seediness and murder. Pit bulls get a bad name from this. Pit bulls were considered the dog to have around children as recommended by the AKC 50 years ago.
