Eagles lost. Any team that plays Vick deserves to lose.

I give people a second chance.

Vick did his time, lost more money than nearly any athlete ever, and is making the most of his second chance. IMO it's a great story.

I like that the Chickens won yesterday. It gives the West a little bit of respectability. Now they can go ahead and bounce out of the playoffs :)

For me it will never be in the past regarding Vick. I will always root against him. That is just me though.

I tried to feel this way but just having the camera on that jackass Carroll one time changed it for me. Just couldn't be happy for them.

i root against the Eagles because they are the Eagles. I could care less who the QB is. Same goes for Dallas, the Redskins and now the Niners.

A pox on all of them.

Carrying hate in ones heart serves only to restrict the thought that redempion for all is available. Hate only burdens the hater and keeps him captive to his own misery

Some actions are hard to forget, killing is one of them. Giving another chance is fine, but forgetting the past should never be done. You can never correct that. He is a terrible person and will always be.

But let's forget that. He did not make the most of it. He sucks against good teams and once in playoffs. He is very easy to scheme against and GB and Minny have showed how easy it is. With a good pocket passer, Eagles are definitely off to the next game, this is a GB loss.

It shows that pocket passing is the most important trait and scrambling is a luxury. There is no way you win SB in modern day NFL without having a great pocket QB.

And Vick is by far the best of these run first QB's that the NFL have seen lately. And not even he is remotely good enough to make that style of play successful for a championship.

Eagles should have went with Kolb, at least his style of play would give the team a slight chance at the big thing.

That's to all you saying Cam Newton is the next Vick or Vince Young. It means no SB.

The Eagles are my number one team to hate; with Vick at the helm it goes somewhere beyond hate.
I hated the Cowboys more at one time(early 80's) and pulled for the Eagles as they were the only team I felt had a chance to beat them.
