It’s pretty sick when you can be a dog killer and still be honored by your teammates and coach. Not only did the Falcons coach mention at Monday’s football game (the Falcons took on the Saints) that he hoped Vick would be back, playing in the NFL, after he is released from prison a few years down the road, but two of his former teammates have paid tribute to their fallen comrade. I don’t get the mentality of those who honor a man who so brutality killed animals, but that’s just me.
DeAngelo Hall, who held up signs and wore MV7 under both eyes as he played, had this to say about his former teammate.
We’re still blaming him for losses we’re getting as a team and he’s not even here to play,” Hall said. “It’s a catch-22 he can’t win.”
WR Roddy Hall made his own t-shirt, which he wore under his jersey during the game. At one point, during the first quarter, he lifted up his jersey to reveal the shirt, which clearly said, “Free Mike Vick” on it. The black shirt with white letters made a splash during another rough game for the Falcons, who lost to New Orleans 34-14. White spoke of the effect Vick’s absence had on the team after the game.
