Animal-rights activists burn Philadelphia to the ground

Yeah, remember how the word was that no team would sign Michael Vick because they were worried about the "publicity?" About the inevitable legions of animal-rights "activists" who would descend upon the unwary team? Why signing Michael Vick would be nothing short of public-relations suicide for an NFL team? How people would turn back their season tickets in droves, in disgust at the idea of that unrepentant dog-killer quarterbacking their team? How a team that signs him would destroy any accumulated goodwill with the community at large, would invite an epic shitstorm of unfavorable media coverage, and on top of all that he's probably not any good anyway?

Yeah, I remember that. I called bullshit on it a few weeks ago.

Now it looks like the Philadelphia-frickin-Eagles have picked up their QB of the future -- a rather proven commodity, if you recall -- for a song. And they get to look good doing it, those rat bastards.
