Re: Goodell Orders Vick to Stay Home
 

It's the right thing for them to do, no doubt. It allows the team to move forward as much as possible. Switching your offense to Joey's skill set(yes i mentioned Joey Harrington and skills in the same sentence), from Mike's is going to be hard enough without the added chaos.

[quote=steveo395;332145]What I don't get is how Joey Harrington keeps finding starting jobs.[/quote]

He obviously has a good agent who targets teams with problem starters that could be hurt or suspended so Joey can play. His play isn't earning him the spots. It's his agent or just dumb luck.

Vick has played his last down for Atlanta. We will see Vick in 08 in a new uniform.

The following link offers a pretty interesting take on what options the Falcons discussed recently re: Michael Vick. Of course, this is from an AJC reporter, so I would NEVER consider it gospel.

I guess we'll know in a couple of minutes how accurate, or inaccurate this report was.

It doesn’t sound like the Falcons will do anything until the NFL has completed their investigation. Sorry no link, just listening to Arthur Blank on live radio. Stay tuned.

And the countdown has begun until we hear someone here say the Skins should sign him. :doh:

I don't think he will come here, but he is done in Atl. No way he can play for them anymore. But there are alot of teams that could use him. Miami, Det, GB, KC. Jack. and TB to name a few.

But he can run better than JC, and him and CP are such good pals.....put a fork in that tard! Dr. Commish is laying down the law! As he should.

Good move on the behalf of the NFL, since Sir Arthur wasn't doing shit!

Re: Goodell Orders Vick to Stay Home
 

"The NFL said Vick would still get his preseason pay and Goodell told the Falcons to withhold any disciplinary action of their own until the league's review was completed."


Preseason pay for a NFL veteran is only 1,100 a week.

From what I've read and heard the Falcons owner feels like Vick has been lying to him for years and doesn't want to pay Vick his 07' salary of 6 million to sit the year out. Not only that, but the Falcons are ready to take the huge cap hit they will face by cutting him.

Even if he is cleared of these charges his days as a Falcon are defiantly over.
