I think its a good thing the Beagles took Vick... Just think when they get ready to come out of the Tunnel (the music blasts)...""Who let the Dogs out "" !!!!!

Btw..the frontpage headline in the Philly Daily news..was something like
""hey philly, hide your dogs ""

First, I didn't know that people in Philadelphia could READ. Second, looks like love-hate relationship is starting on "hate". Third, $1.6 million for player who might play in 10 games. Guess McNabb should start looking over his shoulder. Fourth, Vick was dome quarterback in NFC South. Nine indoor games every year made him look better than he was. Last, can I get a copy of this to wrap my fish in?

does anyone know if the $1.6 million figure is for 16 games or 10 if the suspension goes that long?

i assume that's a salary for the full year in which case the iggles might actually only pay $1 million for the games he's available.

i'm no expert on nfl contracts but i'm pretty sure suspensions mean no payment for games missed. anyone know?

T.O. was a locker room dividing headcase. Vick is not. He's just a OG, triple OG. EVERYONE will rally around him. I still feel that the TO/Donovan incident is what made the Eagles grow apart from Lito Sheppard. He (lito) hated how they dealt with his boy Terrell, and im sure he voiced his displeasure. The organization then showed him that they could succeed without him and put him in the doghouse by playing Hansen more.

This won't be the case with Vick. He'll be used in different looks and be greeted with open arms here. i'm guessing he toe's the company line as he knows the Eagles won't tolerate another unfortunate setback.

micheal vick had plenty of issues before the dogfighting came to light. maybe he's learned after the last few years, or maybe ron mexico will be in the press again?

was always my understanding that suspension meant no pay, like with stallworth.
