You may use round numbers to answer that.
I think Michael Vick is a very talented player and I have no problem with coming back to the league. My thinking is more about the kind of abuse/treatment that Donovan takes from the fans/media in Philadelphia. I personally think the guy is a warrior and I have seen him kill the Giants many many times. Personally I hope that they take the ball out of Mcnabb's hands and even take him off the field a couple of times a game. I'll take my chance with Michael Vick. But we have all seen McNabb go into those slumps now and then and the Eagle nation call for the likes of A.J. Feeley and Kevin Kolb. Now you will have Michael Vick in the bullpen and you would think that every crappy pass/interception that Donovan throws people would be looking for a pitching change. Maybe it will turn out to be a good move. But I think ithas the potential to do more damage by undermining their franchise QB is has been a warrior his whole career.
