The cover scared me a bit, it wasn’t quite a Tiger Woods DMX style cover, but close. I am sure the ladies will like it (photo credit Brian Brown).
Vick speaks to Uptown Magazine about what he has had to overcome since being sent to jail for operating a dog fighting ring. Here are a few of the quotes.
“I play the game the way I know how to play it,” Vick tells UPTOWN, after the magazine spent months trying to negotiate an interview. He’s understandably cautious about whom he talks to and what he says.
“You have to take precautions, but this is what I love to do. I want to be there for my team and do what I have to do as a quarterback to be successful.”
“I am determined to become a better student of the game and I knew I had to work at it,” says Vick. “I was young when I was in Atlanta. I’m older now. I’ve been through a lot and I think I’ve matured. I had some good years there, but I’m just so thankful to be in Philadelphia right now. I could not have landed in a better city. This is my home. This is where I want to be, and I take this opportunity seriously.”
The Eagles still have time to turn things around this season. They have as much talent as anyone in the NFL, but need to come together as a “team”.
That starts with Michael Vick.
He needs to be the leader and I think he has it in him, but we will see.
This issue of Uptown Magazine is on newsstands now, so what are you waiting for.
