Vick cleared to play Sunday

Racist.

do I start him or Schaub?

Define "games" please.

Dog games or NFL games?

He's gonna get his noodle scrambled. I'm somewhat troubled by the fact that if it happens to that POS, it doesn't bother me. Dog killer.

Games in dog years?

Not taking that bet. Vick is just reckless. Fearless, but reckless.

On the play he got smeared he could have protected himself but he's watching the play instead.

Starting to realize how Farveruh set the record. He was fearless like one year then just rode his reputation for a decade and a half.

Vick has no game if he plays careful.

Nope. Brent's a dink who's earned his ignominy, but he was one tough MFer. He never ran like a guy breaking out of jail like Vick did, but he was brave early in his career and in his prime. He ran into guys all the time. After the SB's, he changed, but still - for the most part he earned that record. I thought Manning would break it, and he still may break many others. He's an all-time dink, but he earned that record.

I still think his streak record is more likely to be broken than his INT record. That'll never, ever be touched.

Yeah I suppose I exaggerated by a couple years.

I'm not a bit troubled by the fact that he could have a Theismann occur on both of his legs on the same play and it wouldn't bother me in the least.

I guess it'd be more based on the supposition that my ultimate Ookie comeuppance would be to be mauled to death by a pack of rabid dogs that fit inside of Paris (or Perez) Hilton's purse. I'd love to dump a gallon of BBQ sauce on his head if I saw that. It's a hateful regret, but valid.

OK - you're right. I'm over it. Screw him. Scum.

I don't know that he could have protected himself on that play. He got hit just as he was letting go of the ball. Then he got whip-lashed into his OL's shoulder pad. He's certainly reckless when he takes off with the ball, but methinks the concussion was more the result of a freak occurrence than Vick being reckless.

Not that I'm losing any sleep over it....frickin dog killer.

Remember what I said earlier. The Eagles will be given every opportunity to win this season. If that was any other QB, they would be sitting this week.

If TOG had played his whole career with the NFL concussion rules they have now he wouldn't have the record. And that is why it will never be broken.

It is a little surprising that they've cleared him to start already on Thursday, and they played Sunday night.

Guess the league wants to see Vick play

Or, maybe he passed the independent tests.

Dude. Blacks have been independent since like the civil war.

The way I saw it, he got grabbed as he let go of the ball and the defender is trying to bring him down, but Vick is holding himself up just so he could watch the play unfold. So the defender finishes the tackle and whips him into the other player. Looked to me like he could have protected himself by just going down, but he was being bravado about it.

His whole style of play is like that, and he won't make it much longer if he keeps it up.

But like you, I ain't losing sleep over it either.

Well, if you mofos would pay us our reparations things could be so different. Feeling guilty? Please mail all checks to:

Too lazy to look up the zip code. See why I need the reparations?

Wouldn't it be easier to start a 419 scam? I'm sure Charlie Peprah's grandfather left a bunch of money in a Swiss bank acount that Peprah can't access.

Funniest **** I've read all day. Thank-you!

Racist.

Brothers and Hmongs agree.

Adrian Peterson might disagree with you.

I hope he gets so neck broke that he will have to spend his millions on nurses to change his diapers and wipe the drool from his mouth.

Just a tad harsh?

I do find it interesting that for a business (NFL) that seemed so concerned about the health of players with the "new" concussion rules that Vick seems to have made a miraculous recovery.

I like the NFL as much as anyone, but they are all about the ratings and the money. Nothing more, nothing less.

Vick won't last through the season anyway but much like Ray Lewis he's now become one of the faces of the league. How ironic.

I think you're reading too much into Vick coming back this week. Some guys recover faster than others.

I'm not minimizing concussions but maybe the NFL is putting too much emphasis on them. We're not too far removed from a guy "getting his bell rung" and sniffing smelling salts on the sidelines to "knock the cobbwebs out."

I think the league is going overboard with trying to protect the players. I want nothing but the best for their safety too. However,when you look at some of the calls being made, especially on the quarterback, you have to wonder if the next move is to put flags on everybody and penalize tackling. Christ, they moved up the kickoff line just to minimize the violent contact that occurs. It's football for Christ's sake.

There are varying degrees of concussions, from very mild to quite severe. So I'm guessing Vick's head bump was more on the mild side this time.

Isn't some of the protocol takes into account how an individual fares against their baseline test performed at the beginning of the year? Didn't I see somewhere where players where "lowering" their baseline tests by performing poorly on them?

Maybe in Ron Mexico's case, he wasn't faking his baseline?

I'm not saying, just sayin' ya know.....

Vince Young will never sit out a game.

did he fake his baseline Wonderlic score, too.
