Chiefs Would you be OK with Mike Vick in KC? - Page 7

I don't think the Chiefs will pick up Cassel's bonus in the offseason. If Cassel doesn't show he's playoff winning material by the end of this season, would you be OK with the Chiefs getting Vick? (Who is a FA at the end of this year).

Even if the Eagles go back to Vick as the starter for the rest of the year, Kolb's play and age means Vick is likely on the FA market. Vick also "dreamed of being KC's qb" when he was locked up in Leavenworth.

I think Vick is likely a changed guy, in that he's suddenly become coachable. He's out to prove people wrong, and I think he's been humbled. I don't think he's a choir boy, but he probably very much appreciates his NFL lifestyle these days. Having gone bankrupt, he's likely to have also lost his entourage.

Imagine how hard the Chiefs would be to stop on 3rd downs with Vick at QB. With our running game, Vick would mostly be confronted with 3rd and shorts. That's tailor made for his skill set. With playmakers like Charles and McCluster to use on misdirections, Vick would be absolutely scary.

And, with Vick's huge arm, we could drive people crazy with play action if we could get him a marginally competent deep threat.

It's the Golden Retrievers and Border Collies you really have to look out for; they're the ones out there ripping toddlers to shreds on a regular basis.

no, its the ignorant owners. breed has nothing to do with aggression levels. i walk my pit mix through the neighborhood, and i see dogs of all breeds acting like they want a piece of him. meanwhile, my dog trots right along side me. if an owner doesn't do their part, ANY dog will be aggressive. and define "regular basis" because it just doesn't happen very often, its just jumped all over by the media.

and furthermore, keep your kids out of my yard and there's no risk of my dog biting them. don't let your kids tease my dog, or they might get bit.

real monsters, let me tell you...

with the proper training pits are great dogs. if you ever get over the media propaganda and owned one, you would never want another breed. have you ever asked yourself why pit owners defend them so passionately? we have to because of people like you.

This. Impressive in that preseason game.

anyone using the ' it's only a dog, not a human ' argument, is seriously ignorant to the topic. Humans can take care of their own, dogs rely on humans to help guide them to survival. I've said this before,

I'd feel MUCH more sorry for a homeless dog vs. homless human, and yes there are always the slight exceptions. Humans are capable of helping themselves, dogs really are limited. It's a man's world.
