Gotta say I'm really disappointed that the Steelers have signed Michael Vick -- yes I understand that he did his time (which was primarily for running an illegal gambling ring, NOT for what he did to those animals).
And to some degree I believe in second chances -- although in the case of Michael Vick I believe he should have been cast off from the NFL.
I find it odd that Super Bowl MVP Santonio Holmes was such a problem that we "had" to trade him -- but we're willing to add a sub-par, known team cancer like Vick to the Steelers.
I realize the pickings (right now) are slim -- but I certainly would have preferred the Steelers wait to see what hits the wire after cuts.
I just don't believe there is any upside to Michael Vick - Zero. When given the chance to play last season, he clearly wasn't ready from a preparation stand point.
I also realize they're two different guys -- but this reeks of LeGarrette Blount all over again. Hope I'm wrong.
