Catching up on the news on ESPN.com and SportsCenter has been stressing me out. I have been forced to chose between my long love Favre and Rogers. I feel like Dylan from 90210.*
Then I finish watching the Tour, and I find out this guy is going to partner with RadioShack. I was just thinking that I needed new aero bars for my bike - off to the shack. What?!
On to the main reason for the post - Michael Vick. He is out of prison and it looks like back at work. For an excellent discussion of the original case, look here. Similar to NY Kid, I think that Vick received an appropriate sentence, and he served his time quietly. I strongly support the commissioner's decision to reinstate him in the NFL. It is important to note that Vick will likely not be reinstated fully until October - this is essentially equal to a 4 or 5 game suspension. Bryant has a nice discussion on the nature of the reinstatement.
Will he perform? Who will sign him? Who knows - the point is that he was given the chance.
*For the record, I have chosen the younger man (of course), and I will have a new fantasy football name to match. We should have openings for one or two players this year.

This reminds me of the episode of 90210 when Kelly chooses herself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGk9E4oKYYI
90210? Really? Aren't all of those actors now grandparents?
Can you make Ron Mexico your starting QB?
LOL, Anon! Love the clips you and Velma so helpfully provided.
Ah, 90210. They just don't make TV like they used to...
I'm not sure what to make of the whole Vick thing, though with her expertise in re-entry and recidivism issues, I'll trust Velma's take on it.
