Who is going to the Falcons/Eagles game at the Dome in December?

What will the atmosphere be like considering he's a backup?

I won't be going to any Falcons games this year, so I can't address your question....

I just want to go on record saying I wish Vick all the best and I'm sorry he's not going to the Vikings - Lord knows MN needs help in the QB position.

And I wish Vick the best whie also being a proud owner of two mutts who quite possibly maybe pitbull mixes. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Earn and deserve are two different things. Actions speak louder than words and his actions were dispicable. Serving time in prison only pays your legal debt to society, it does not absolve you of guilt or make you a good person. The Eagles have made a business decision which shows that money in sports is still king, and integrity still takes a back seat. We'll see if there is any kind of fan backlash.

Good for Vick. I wish him all the best of luck! His skills were under-appreciated here in Georgia anyways.

Sorry, playing ball for millions of dollars doesn't redeem anyone or anything. Had he done what he did to children instead of dogs, would you all be so quick to jump on his bandwagon? He brutally, violently, and purposefully hurt animals because they didn't make him money.

Remember MLK and judging people by the "content of their character?"

I wish him all the misfortune the world can bring, short of physical calamity.

This thug should be driving nails or flipping burgers. He should NOT be allowed to get back into the NFL and handed a couple million dollar contract straight out of jail. YEAH, THAT'LL TEACH HIM!

Look at this guys track record. He was BORN to be a THUG. IT'S ALL HE KNOWS!

And by the way.......Vick's football skills were already diminishing when he last played. His knees had started to wear, and his decision making as a QB was ATROCIOUS! Remember the Matt Schaub fiasco? The Falcons were ALREADY planning on replacing Vick then!

I hope both he and the Filthydeathofya Beagles fall FLAT ON THEIR FACES!

Guys like this will never have a true reason to show remorse or repentance as long as BUFOONS like the Beagles are there to put them right back where they don't deserve to be.

This is great news for Vick and the Eagles! I hate the Eagles as a Cowboys fan but this is going to be huge for them... though they still suck. I'm glad Vick was able to get a job... I don't understand what people want from him... he screwed up, paid his debt and now he has a chance to earn a living and grow from the situation. Like ALL felons, I'd rather he be given an opportunity to work than to sit around idly... the latter situation is a recipe for societal disaster.
