Michael Vick announces retirement

[blue_suns]

Vick, 36, says playing days officially finished

Surprised nobody made a thread for this yet

Never liked him as a player at VT or with the Falcons. In fact, he's one of the main reasons the Broncos became my favorite NFL team and not until he was shown the door did the Falcons become my second team.

How do you retire from a job you don't have?

That's it! I'm retiring from male modeling.

 

[moxie]

Obligatory:
He still had a job?

 

[Center Ice]

Well he seems to have gotten his life straightened out and now has a few retirement bucks. About as much as you can do I suppose. He'll likely never be talked about again.

A true redneck! Respect

When I was a kid I was under the impression that a QB's job was to throw the ball.

Champ Bailey being traded to Denver is the other half of the equation though. He was my favorite UGA player at the time and he had just been traded to Denver when I was starting to watch the NFL. At the time, the only basis I had on NFL players were the ones I remembered from their college days.

I may have rooted against the man but he was sure fun to watch.

Kinda interested to see what he is going to do in his post football life.

Or should I say kinda scared?? Ya know, being Scooby-Doo an all...

Viks only real legacy will be Madden 2004, he was like a cheat code in that game...

I quit a job once to watch Vick play, on TV.

After Barry, one of the most exciting football players I've ever seen.

Hope he gets a chance to coach. Either football or dogs. Cuz, I'll be honest, dog fighting doesn't bother me. They're dogs.

After the 2015 season, he was already retired.

I was never a Vick fan, but he has been a decent human since his release from prison. Here a good article penned by Vick a few days ago.

RIP Mike Vick's career. Guy was electrifying with the Falcons and even with the Eagles at times.

He'll always have Madden 2004
