FYI - Vick may never get big endorsements. He'll never get a corporate job. It's in his best interest to play in the NFL as long as he can as this is it. He won't exactly land a job in Hollywood as the animal rights people will physically block his appearances (I'm being serious here).

I'm not condoning what he did at all. There are times, especially when I'm stuck in traffic and some asswipe almost kills me or the guy in front of me, where I like dogs better than people.

But I'm under the impression the intent of this thread is about his ability, not his character. I'm sure I won't like the guy in person if I knew him. I'm only talking about his ability.

I can't believe what I'm seeing. My Raiders buddy here and I always joked that Michael Vick couldn't hit the side of a barn even if someone painted a big black X on it. Yet all of a sudden, he's the most accurate QB in the NFL. I'm wondering if this is really Michael Vick or some alien doppleganger. He runs like Michael Vick, yet he passes like '09 Brett Favre. WTF?

As the guy who wrote the "Michael Vick is not an elite QB" thread, I'm more confused than you are.

This may ruffle a few feathers, but if you want your kids to look up to athletes as role models, that's a parenting fail.

Athletes as role models? Really? What's next, telling your daughters they need to be more like Paris Hilton?

Well, there's something to be said for encouraging small-breasted women to wear low cut dresses. :)

Which, ISTM, is Paris Hilton's only virtue.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

ahhh...now i see what you were saying. clearly i took it in a vastly different direction. my apologies.

and uh kev - you can say i'm nuts all i want but i feel how i feel. if you really read what i was saying, you'd realize that we actually feel the same way but we're approaching it from two different viewpoints.

i certainly wouldn't encourage my kids to worship a pro football player but i know MANY who do. since i'm in illinois, brian urlacher comes to mind right away - now THERE'S a class act - NOT!!

i said he paid his debt to society but if you honestly think i should feel sorry for this guy, it's just not gonna happen.

I think you're honestly freaking nuts! I never once ever said you should feel sorry for him, never, not even the slightest implication of it.

I wouldn't ever say someone should HONESTLY feel sorry for a person playing a game and banking millions a year. I can try to understand their situation, but never would I feel sorry for them.

The whole role model thing for kids is what pisses me off. If parents did their god damn job, this wouldn't be a damn issue.

When my daughters do something wrong, I never once ever put it on someone else. I take the blame, I figured out what I did wrong, how I can do better.

If a parent notices their kid idolizing someone, they need to step up, check into that person, educate themselves on said person and follow through with educating their child.

I'm so sick of parents pushing blame for their kids mistakes on outside sources they claim to have 'no control' over.

There's a difference between "feisty" and being stubborn. For the record, I'd do both. :)

I think we should all trane our daughters in the Anna Nicole Smith mode. Gold dig off a gozillioner. Hell she gave that old bastard much more pleasure than those pantywaiste children of his. Anna Nicole is a true American success story, she maximized the gifts that the good lord gave her, and all the while giving self righteous assholes the bird.

Martha Careful (8h) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (8h) : BALL DON'T LIE

Zero2Cool (11h) : Mayo was the guy they groomed for HC and one of the reasons they let Bill go.

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Pats have the #4 pick, lots of cap space and Maye at QB; should fetch some attention

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Well that didn't take long; Jerod Mayo out as Patriots HC

Zero2Cool (12h) : I would expect it to be higher in favor of Eagles

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Thst line seems...generous

Zero2Cool (13h) : Eagles -3.5 over Packers in Wildcard Round

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
