EAGLES MIGHT GET IT!

OH YES!
To all football fans, MICHAEL VICK has signed 2-year deal with Philadelphia Eagles! I cant wait to see Vick back in action! We get to see him play in the last two pre-season games, but unfortunately after that.. we have to wait till Week 6 to come to see him play again =[!

Vick was the No. 1 draft pick in 2001, and once the highest-paid player in football. But he has not played since 2006 when his career came tumbling down. He was convicted in August 2007 of conspiracy and running a dogfighting operation, sentenced to 23 months in federal prison and suspended indefinitely by the NFL.

But after serving his time and being released from home confinement July 20, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell conditionally lifted Vick's suspension, allowing him to sign with a team.

Vick can immediately take part in preseason practices, workouts and meetings and can play in the final two preseason games.

Once the season begins, Vick may participate in all team activities except games, and Goodell said he would consider Vick for full reinstatement by Week 6 (Oct. 18-19) at the latest.
