OAKLAND WOULD BE GOOD PLACE FOR VICK TO START FRESH

Here's something to picture as you look ahead to the offseason: Michael Vick in a Raiders jersey.A lot, namely a trade and a lot of salary cap details, will have to happen in the meantime. But this one makes perfect sense, and it may be just what the Raiders need to revive a franchise that's faltering.

The Falcons, who have given Vick every possible chance, will be willing to part with their quarterback. Despite his outrageous talent, he hasn't produced on any sort of consistent level and tensions are at an all-time high in the Falcons organization.

The crescendo may have come Sunday when Vick made an obscene gesture at Atlanta fans who ridiculed him as he walked off the field. The Falcons gladly would take draft picks for Vick, who clearly needs a fresh start.

And what better place for Vick than Oakland, where many a renegade has prospered?

Picture Vick throwing to Randy Moss. Picture Al Davis smiling again.

Even on his bad days, Vick would fit in Oakland. He could wave to fans who speak the same language.

Must be the coaches. They've put Vick in a passing funk again. And those damn receivers. And those ungrateful fans ...

If Falcons owner Arthur Blank is having trouble putting his finger on what exactly is wrong with his team, maybe Mike Vick just inadvertently fingered the culprit.

Picture Vick throwing to Randy Moss. Picture smiling again.

More correct statement would be "Picture Vick throwing AT Randy Moss; and behind him; and over him; and anywhere but to him. Now picture Randy Moss giving Vick the finger.
