In Prison, Vick Dreamed of Playing for Chiefs
saw this on arrowhead pride...interesting
This story isn't quite what you think it is. While in Leavenworth Federal Prison, Michael Vick watched NFL games whenever he could. Because Leavenworth, KS is less than an our from Kansas City, the games on TV were always the Kansas City Chiefs. Vick recently said that when he thought of playing football again, it was in red. "When I imagined myself playing again, it was always for the Chiefs," Vick told Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer. I don't think the Chiefs would be interested in signing Vick. Hey, they've proven me wrong before but it doesn't exactly seem like a match made in heaven. Next week, the Eagles will visit the Chiefs in their third preseason games 15 months since Vick left Leavenworth Federal Prison. "There will definitely be a moment of reflection," Vick said. "I think I'll be thinking about how I always hoped I would get that second chance and prayed every time that I was watching those games that I would be allowed to play again."

Can't read defenses, relied on elite athleticism which isn't there anymore and gets beat up a shit ton.
No thanks. Give me a pocket passer with es capability. |

He couldn't read a defense if it was written in 16-point font and spelled "Dick and Jane" style. His accuracy is beyond erratic. And his body is starting to break apart. I'd rather have Alex Smith. |

When I was watching the Chiefs this year, I dreamed I was in prison.

This isn't surprising. I think most people who have watched the Chiefs play recently are sure they could do a better job at Quarterback.

I am a huge animal lover. I love animals more than I do most people on this planet...
with that being said, don't want Michael Vick here because he's unproven, inconsistent and a big risk. Not because he participated in horrible, inhumane, criminal activity of which HE PAID HIS DUES. He was sentenced and served time for his crime so I think he deserves a chance to make a living. I just don't happen to want it to be in KC because I think his best playing days are over.
