They should sign TO just for the hell of it.

I was thinking the same thing - maybe Dan Snyder could buy a new expansion team, and populate it with all the prima dona punk-ass bitches, starting with:

Vick
T.O.
Lelie
Moss
Shockey
Cory Simon

The team will have no salary cap (it doesn't apply to Snyder anyway), and all players must be the highest paid at their position.  Anyone can get on the team by publicly bitching about their contracts, touches or playing time.  However, once on this team they cannot be cut or traded.

Any other suggestions?  I'm having trouble coming up with a coach...I feel like it should be obvious, but I'm having a mental block...
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

Mike Martz, Brian Billick and Mike Shanahan would all be fine candidates.

Yeah, I did come up with Martz.  I was trying to think of a coach who throws his players under the bus after a loss...like Spurrier would do when he was coaching at Florida, "I was brilliant, but the players just didn't execute"

Loyalty is simply not allowed on this team.

QuoteVICK TAKES DIG AT COACHING STAFF

The fact that the Atlanta Falcons finally have reversed a full-out free-fall with a win against the taterskins wasn't enough to bring an end to the internal strife that could eventually trigger big changes after the season.

After the 24-14 road win, Vick offered up this explanation of a 22-yard touchdown pass to Michael Jenkins, which gave the Falcons the lead after they had fallen behind by 14:  "[Jenkins] actually wasn't even in the read.  Sometimes you've got to overcome coaching.  I told him before the play to make sure he ran his route to win, and he did.  Nobody on the field knew what I was going to do but me and him, so it kind of works out that way."

Sometimes you've got to overcome coaching.

The statement implies, obviously, that there's something bad about the coaching that needs to be overcome.  Our guess is that, if Vick is pressed on the question, he'll say that he was misunderstood.  Or maybe he'll offer up another perfunctory apology, perhaps with a $5,000 donation to a charity of coach Jim Mora's choice.  Still, Vick said what he said, and it means what it means.

So regardless of the fact that (drum roll, please) the Falcons found a way to outscore the up-and-down taterskins, the Atlanta football franchise still has deeper issues that won't go away until there's a new coaching staff in the building.  Or until Vick is gone.

The BIGSTUD

He should start taking a page out of the Giants book and whenever someone asks him after a loss what happened say "We got outcoached." It would make for fine entertainment, but I don't think Mora would fire back because he still thinks he's one of the guys and wouldn't want to lose his locker room cred.

I wonder what a ride on the Mike Vick Experience feels like now. Maybe they added a "get herpies" section and a "throw your coaching staff and teammates under the bus" section. Could be fun now.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Amazing how this topic has yet to come up on the local radio.
