There’s A Joke About Michael Vick Murdering Birds In Here Somewhere

Found June 13, 2012 on With Leather: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Michael Vick,  Andy Reid
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles,  Jacksonville Jaguars,  Miami Dolphins
Tampa_bay_buccaneers_1e32
In news that is sure to overshadow the Jacksonville Jaguars announcement that they’re merging with Crash Bandicoot, the Philadelphia Eagles have entered into a partnership with the Angry Birds. I’m serious. So far, the announcement has only included two things: a “Philadelphia Eagle” character you can use in upcoming Angry Birds games and this video of Andy Reid welcoming fat birds and birds that explode to the team. DREAM TEAM. Hopefully this will send a message to the rest of the NFL — The Philadelphia Eagles are a team to watch in 2012. Either that, or that when you spend all your money on free agents you’ve got to recoup it though iPad game crossovers, so the Miami Dolphins should forget about Ochocinco and try to get some of that sweet, sweet Elf Bowling money. One of those two messages. [h/t Pro Football Zone]

Mike Vick not pleased with landing spot on NFLN list

Via Philly Sports Muse  |  June 12, 2012
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Mike Vick is aware of his landing spot on the NFL Network’s continuing countdown of the top players of 2012. And he is not pleased with it. Though the list is compiled based on rankings from fellow players and his ranking of the 70th best player in the league reflected a season where Vick was not at his best, the quarterback thinks it’s…well...

Philadelphia Eagles: Is Michael Vick Getting His Edge Back?

Is Michael Vick starting to feel the pressure already?  Is he getting a little snippy due to stress?  Or is his personality coming out a little more these days because he feels a little more comfortable? Lately, he’s been uncharacteristically edgy in interviews with the media. Photo: bossip.com It began earlier this month when Vick seemed to get annoyed with all the questions...

Patrick McDermott/Getty Images There aren’t many bigger names in the NFL than Michael Vick.  There is only one NFL player who shall remain nameless that is as polarizing as Michael Vick.

Mike Vick unimpressed by the opinions of his peers

Via The Victory Formation  |  June 11, 2012
Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback Mike Vick was recently asked about the NFL’s 2012 Top 100 list, a yearly ranking of the 100 best players in the league as picked by the players in the NFL.

Via Larry Brown Sports  |  June 12, 2012
The NFL Network recently released a portion of its Top 100 Players of 2012 list, and you know what that means — absolutely nothing. The list is merely a topic for fans, analysts and bloggers like us to analyze and interpret. For players, it can serve as either a pat on the back or a motivational tool. After being ranked No. 70 on this year’s list, Michael Vick will be using for...

Michael Vick calls the NFL’s Top 100 a joke after his ranking

Via Down and Distance  |  June 11, 2012
Alas, another player thinking this NFL Top 100 thing is a joke. But, I do have to give them credit, they make these rankings based off of the players that supposedly vote, and make them a list out of it. It’s dumb, but it gets fans and players going on it, thus bringing in more views and discussion. Today on 97.5 the fanatic, Eagles QB Michael Vick sat down and talked with Mike...

Michael Vick: Eagles QB’s NFL Top 100 Ranking is Well-Deserved, but Should Be Positive Motivation for 2012

Michael Vick may disagree, but his ranking on NFL Network’s “The Top 100: NFL Players of 2012” is well-deserved. In an interview with Philadelphia’s 97.5 The Fanatic, the elusive quarterback voiced his opinion on the ranking which pegs him behind players such as return specialist Devin Hester, rookie Patrick Peterson and unproven, oft-injured rusher Darren McFadden. “Yeah...

Eagles eager to start two-a-days in July

Via AP on Fox  |  June 14, 2012
Michael Vick has something to prove. So does Andy Reid. These Philadelphia Eagles aren't the talk of the NFL the way they were last summer. After failing miserably to live up to enormous expectations and their own ''Dream Team'' label, the Eagles know they have to earn respect. The team completed its three-day minicamp Thursday and anxiously awaits the start...

Fantasy Football Face/Off: Mike Vick

Via Razzball Football  |  June 14, 2012
Without a doubt, Cam Newton‘s rookie season will go down in the record books as one of the best by a rookie QB in the history of the NFL.  However, it is said that it is harder to stay at the top than it is to actually get there, as we have seen many spectacular campaigns being followed by something rather mediocre.  Now that coaches and players have seen what Newton brings to...

Michael Vick Continues to Love Himself, Not NFL Top 100

Via thepigskinreport.com  |  June 12, 2012
I’ve tried the past five years to keep my criticism of Michael Vick in check. People constantly get onto me for saying that the guy “made a mistake” and he “paid his debt to society” and that he earned his second chance and I should get on board with that. As a retired breeder and owner of multiple Doberman Pinscher’s, I’m sorry but that was just something I could...
