VICKADELPHIA



Kevin Kolb raised his fist in the air all day yesterday but it was not out of celebration for himself but for his teammate and once backup quarterback Michael Vick. Vick has taken over the starting QB position with a passion. After being removed from football for one year and trying to get back into the swing of things last year with the Eagles, Vick has emerged as one the hottest players if not thee hottest in the NFL.

Vick took the field yesterday afternoon vs the Jacksonville Jaguars and did much of what he did against the Detroit Lions and that is dominate. Throwing for 291 yards with 3 touchdowns, one of which came with less then 10 seconds in the first half, and rushed for another touchdown to seal his performance.

This will truly be one of the feel good stories of the year. A man on the road to redemption. A man who had everything taken away from him trying to get it all back. I have been a Vick supporter from his days in Atlanta and all the way through his legal troubles. All those who shunned him for his mistakes are just the fuel for him to continue his NFL career as one of the elite QB's in the game.

Philadelphia has a new name now, which I as many others hope stays the same for a good amount of time and that is VICKADELPHIA
