Matt Schaub's success in Houston not a surprise to [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Even though he started only two games in his three years in Atlanta , Matt Schaub earned [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]respect.
So when the Falcons traded Schaub to Houston in 2007, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] was not surprised to see his former teammate have success. Last year Schaub led the NFL with 4,770 passing yards and had a career-high 29 touchdown passes. He was also the MVP of the Pro Bowl.
"He was kind of stuck behind at that time one of the best in the league in Mike Vick," [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] said. "Obviously he was kind of handcuffed there a little bit, and we ended up trading him. He's obviously showing everything I knew he would be. He's an extremely intelligent guy. He loves the game of football. He has a great arm. All the great quarterbacks have great anticipation. He anticipates things and really finds the zones,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], guys open in coverage, and is very accurate in his throws. He's playing better than anybody in the league right now, so we have our hands full with him."

Shoot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "I've gotta do what's best for me" has become the magical antidote to any selfish,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], boorish behavior. Why not take advantage of it?
Most importantly, Philadelphia got its first win of 2010 on the road.
Despite being out on bail for his part in the "Bad Newz Kennels," a random drug test turned up traces of marijuana in his system.

Regardless of how loud and clear it may have been.

I mean, he was THE Michael Vick.
Some have even gone so far as to suggest the mercurial former Atlanta Falcon should force his way out of the City of Brotherly Love. The suggestion isn't as insane as it sounds—it's become commonplace for a discontented NFL player to hold his breath on the sidelines until he gets his way. So why shouldn't a guy who's had a couple of good games demand greener pastures?
However, the head injury kept the future of the franchise from a Week 2 date with the lowly Detroit Lions, giving the 30-year-old ex-con an opportunity to start. Suffice it to say, "The Michael Vick Experience" didn't disappoin: 21-of-34 for 284 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, plus seven carries for 37 yards on the ground.
"I came into this season and this year as the backup and that's been my mindset...That's the way it is, and the way it's gonna be throughout the season...Hopefully, somebody will give me that opportunity next year."
Instead, he took the high road.

How Vick has handled the situation shows that he is a new man, for now.
Gone is the attitude, "I'm different and special, so I don't have to play by the rules." Gone is the lack of appreciation of how lucky he is to play football for asinine sums of money. Gone is the buffoon who listened to all the sycophants in his circle, nearly throwing his good fortune away.

Back then, the fleet-footed quarterback had a litany of brushes with Johnny Law and numerous brush-ins with scandal; all of which came to a head during the federal prosecution for his infamous dog-fighting ring. Yet "Ron Mexico" was so out of touch with reality, so arrogant and self-entitled that he hadn't gotten the message.

Can you imagine what would've happened if Vick decided to take the other route? If he jumped at the first chance out of Philly like Sarah Palin going after a television appearance?
That would've played out well—a clown who should've counted his blessings decides to bite the hand that fed him, when few others would even toss him a rancid scrap from a decaying rat carcass.

What a difference 1095 days make. And a set of prison bars.

Skip forward to September of 2010 to what must have seemed like a lifetime for the former Pro Bowler.
The Philadelphia Eagles are fresh off their second-consecutive impressive performance with him behind center. While he didn't start the opener against the Green Bay Packers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Vick nearly led the Iggles to a stirring comeback,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], thanks to a concussion that knocked the original starter, Kevin Kolb, from the game.

He jumps on the ESPN grenade the first chance he gets:
Well, we're all familiar with the fiery crash-and-burn ending of that story.
Forget that Vick played against a Packers' defense protecting a large lead and started agtainst the Detroit Lions.
In his place is a man who clearly recognizes the sudden stroke of luck that may bring his story full circle. A player who hasn't forgotten his second chance, authored by commissioner Roger Goodell, which allowed him back on the field.

Facing serious prison time and already under the watchful eye of Big Brother,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], No. 7 saw no problem with ingesting an illegal narcotic. And who could blame him?
Hopefully, more athletes follow his lead.
So what does Vick do?

Or maybe just "a man" compared to the little boy who came perilously close to chucking his golden ticket in the dumpster.
**Click here to learn more about the Paralyzed Veterans of America** The NFL originated in 1946 with 11 teams, and through a sequence of team expansions, reductions, and relocations currently consists of 30 teams. The United States is home to 29 teams and one is located in USA. The Boston Bruins have won the most championships with 17 NFL Finals wins. The next most successful franchise is the Los Angeles Lakers, who have 16 overall championships 11 in Los Angeles,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 5 in Minneapolis, including the most recent one. Following the Lakers are the Chicago Bulls with six championships, all of them over an eight year span during the 1990s, and the San Antonio Spurs with four championships.

Who would ever catch him? Even if some lucky son of a gun manged the feat, mortal rules didn't apply to those chosen for greatness.

The story isn't finished yet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and probably won't be as long as Vick is an Eagle; but—for now—it seems as if he has put the floppy shoes and big red nose away for good.
In 2001 an affiliated minor league, the National Basketball Development League, now called the NFL Development League or D League was created. Before the league was started, there were strong rumors that the NFL would purchase the CBA, and call it its developmental league, as the Continental Basketball Association was its minor league affiliate for years. 20 percent of NFL players spent time in this league and over 143 players have been called up to play in the NFL. Leon HalipIn 2004 the Lakers returned to the Finals, only to fall in five games to the Detroit Pistons. The following off season, Kobe was traded to the Miami Heat, and the Charlotte Bobcats were established as the league 30th team. The Spurs won their third championship in 2005.
In September of 2007, Michael Vick was the example of everything wrong with athletes of the National Football League and professional sports.

And that's a good thing.

The team now sits at 1-1. Kolb has been cleared to play, yet some observers are clamoring for the season's first quarterback controversy. The rationale is that the Eagles have looked wonderful with Vick triggering the offense, they're clearly excited to have him on the field, and Kolb can't boast as an unproven fouth-year QB.
