The idea, which I'm sure has been thrown around by fans already, comes from Sun-Times writer Carol Slezak. The point? Why not bring in Mike Vick if Angelo is looking for quarterback help to push Kyle Orton? To a point, I get it, but I thought that myself and other Lions fans were the only ones desperate enough to be asking questions like, "when exactly does he get out of prison?" Slezak makes a compelling argument that Vick should be a viable option when he is a free man in July. However, when you have to mention a free agent's prison release date in the first paragraph of a story, the case is tough to make. I agree that with another apology, Vick would have a good chance of redeeming himself in the eyes of NFL fans. We're all pretty sure Ray Lewis stabbed a guy, and what has that done to his rep besides make us assume that running backs and slot receivers pee themselves when he's about to hit them?
