Vick shows he's a 'Pro'
Daily News staff
A lot of attention has been focused on Michael Vick this offseason and especially recently.
Vick will be on national television tonight, taking part in "Pros vs. Joe's" on Spike-TV (10 p.m.). The episode was taped in March. (Keep that in mind if you watch the clip below.)
This follows last week's season premiere that featured former Eagles Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens.
The difference is McNabb and Owens were among the Joe's, facing former NBA stars. Vick is among the Pros, becoming the first active NFL player to be on the show as a Pro, according to Spike.
Vick is joined by retired linebacker LaVar Arrington and retired wide receiver Isaac Bruce.
Vick leads a Wildcat offense against the Joes, but he also gets in a little tackling.

Here is another video of the show with more (about 10 minutes)
K_Ball, Johnnyvegas makes a lot of sense, I find it to be very strange that Phillips was never questioned, even though he refused to be questioned by authorities, there was never any attempt by the media to question Phillips or any of this friends. There is something about this party incident that sounds real funkey and has ever indication of someone setting Vick up. I agree with johnnyvegas there is more to this story that is being told, I can see that and I don't live anywhere near VA.— charmaine- Karmagoesaround, you might want to high tail it up to Vick probation officer and tell him or her, that they have no idea what they are talking about, because you know according to the law and the conditions of Vick's probation agreement that he has without a doubt violated those conditions LOL. I am sure he will listen LOL LOL LOL— charmaine
- he's not a PRO he's a CONvick..LOL....wolf.— wolf 4
- johnnyvegas seriously? if his former thug friends wanted revenge they would just shoot Vick or if they're going to stage a shooting and Phillips takes a bullet to the leg don't you think he would have cooperated with police to follow through with the plan? That's pure rumor and complete BS if you ask me, why would you even repeat that?— K_Ball
- I have friends in Va Beach, and the rumor down there is that the shooting was staged by his former thug friends as an act of revenge to take down Vick. There is more to this story than we are being told, and the fact that the NFL is not disciplining Vick confirms this. Whether you like Vick or not, he did not violate his parole.— johnnyvegas
karmacomesaround -- how did he violate his parole you moron? how? the phillips guy wasnt invited and was told to leave. and thats a fact thats on the police report!! so how did he violate his parole?? stop wishing. he didnt break any rules. period. you people are losers. keep saying the same old redundant things that arent even true. get a life.- ronm -- um, any backup with multiple probowl selections can be considered the best backup you idiot. just because YOU dont like him doesnt mean that he isnt good. who are the better back ups?
- it is inexplicable how this man is not in jail. he violated his parole and any normal person would have been back in jail in a heartbeat, and how anyone can ever take lurie and goodell seriously again for their 'no tolerance' bs is beyond me.— karmacomesaround
Comment removed.- Hey 'BDawk20', how can he be the 'BEST' backup in the NFL if he has accuracy issues? You're a bigger idiot than 'Zero Tolerance' Lurie, 'Wessel' Joe & 'Father of the Year' Big Dread'. You keep eating what management keeps shoveling out. You're a sheep. BAAAAA!— ronm
Vick will be a better player because he no longer has to worry about McNabb giving him bad advice. Kevin Kolb will bring back the old Vick
Word has it that Chris Wheeler lovesssssssss Mike Vick.- The Dogs must have been thinking, "Dad, why are you Hanging me, Why are you Drowning me, Why are you electrocuting me? I just wanted to please you.that's what we Dogs do! Why did you kill me!" You'll get yours Mike!..Keep moving...! Monster!— Bob Frapples
- ^ Word— jaydes
- Think the eagles would be better off with Garcia as back-up and Cake in the face BANG BANG Vick in Oakland.— jwatson
Michael Vick is going to help out the eagles alot this year in wildcat formations and 3rd and short. Needs to work on his accuracy but he is the best backup in the NFL right now.— briandawkins20
