Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has reacted to league findings that say that New Orleans Saints players maintained a ‘bounty program’ over the last three seasons that targeted opponents with the intent to injure them.
“It’s a part of the game now. To sit here and try to make light of the situation whether it was right or wrong, I won’t try to justify that. I just think, what a team does is there own personal business, that goes on in-house. I don’t think it’s anything personal towards certain players.
“It’s a compliment if anything, they don’t want you out there, you’re too good, if you stay out there they’re going to beat you. And I think for the most part it never really happens. You put a bounty on a player, you may hit him once or twice, he’ll bounce back up and nine times out of ten he’ll finish the game. Because the things that I seen that happened to Brett Favre, if (Brett) Favre was able to get up, he’ll finish the game and I think for the most part he did. So, I won’t touch on it, but, don’t take the fun out of the game.
“I’ve been told plenty of times that there’s been bounties out on me. I won’t say what teams because it’s not important and there will be probably 13 bounties out on me out of the 16 games that we play this year, so, it’s all fun. It’s all a part of the game and I just have to dodge those guys and make them play harder”.

He’s right. All these idiots sports writers who have never played a SINGLE down of football in their ENTIRE lives need to fall back and listen to what the PLAYERS have to say about it.
