Word just came down that Michael Vick, who was previously pegged as a prime candidate to be released by the Philadelphia Eagles due to the $15 million left on his contract, will in fact be staying in Philly for at least one more season. Vick and the Eagles restructured his deal, and he now has a one-year, $10 million contract.

$10 million dollars?????   :rant:  What's that work out to -- a little over half a mil every time he loses the damn ball?

Just freaking wonderful . . .   :censored:  :banghead:  :argh:

I hope he doesn't start, but then he would be an expensive backup.  :banghead:

I was looking forward to a whole new team.  :thatsright:

Doesn't matter to me......I don't have a dog in this fight.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Well, at least Eagles tickets should be affordable for the 2013 season.   :fuelfire:   :-)

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

To add insult to injury, they raised ticket prices for the 2013 season too   :rant:
