        I meant why did you post that now? We've been aware of that for, hmm, three weeks now maybe? Not the specifics of the surgery, but that he'd be out that length of time anyway (probably missing a week or two of regular season).

            In other news Mike Vick is under investigation for dogfighting.

              Rumor now is that Vick may be banned for the year for GAMBLING on dogfighting. It's a bit easier to go with since gambling is a no-no in professional sports.

                Ahh, true. Though it's still probably not explicitly in the player contract, but who knows. I don't see the union coming to his defense too quickly on this one anyway

                    Looks like the Michael Vick story will end sooner than expected, as according to the BREAKING NEWS banner on CNN he's negotiating a plea. Apparently he finally figured out when the rest of his conspirators pleaded out that regardless of what happened it wasn't going to end well for him.

                    Don't know whether to call his career finished or not but it'll be years before he can sniff a football field again.

                    • You might not be able to call his career finished, but I can. Vick will never play in the NFL again. Go ahead and quote me on this one.

                      • What, you've forgotten the Oakland Raiders are still an NFL team?

                          • Philly fans would love him. He wouldn't love them back after they pelted him with iceballs a few times.

                            • I would like to hear which team you guys think has the best chance of going 0-16 this year.

                              I'm in a pool and being able to pick that team will help me greatly but I am still up in the air as to which would give me the best chance.

                              (and before anyone points out that it is unlikely for a team to actually go 0-16, maybe a better question would be which team(s) do you think will finish with the worst winning percentage in the league this year)

                              What say you all?

                              /me

                              And I will admit in advance that I am a casual fan at best, so don't laugh at my ignorance, but I thought Apolyton would give me an honest answer to my question so I came here first

                              • OK, the obvious pick is the Oakland Raiders. However, their defense is probably too good for them to finish with the worst record in the league for a second straight season.

                                The better money is probably on the Kansas City Chiefs. Their offense is in serious trouble, and their defense, which has always been poor, still isn't fixed.

                                Another quick pick: the Dolphins.
