Eagles fans are putting their hard-earned tickets where their mouths are on Craig's List today. Word was barely out about Michael Vick signing a two-year deal with the Eagles when Philadelphia Craig's List started buzzing with angry fans seeking to rid themselves of tarnished tickets.
Writes one Eagles fan trying to unload season tickets: "The last thing my son & I want to see is Michael Vick in an Eagles jersey. We made up our mind to sell the tickets. Lower Level, 2 seats, side by side, 24 rows off the field. Great seats. $3000 cash gets the tickets. Any info feel free to ask, serious buyers only, I want the deal done fast."
Another disgruntled fan writes: If the Eagles are going to sell out, then so am I. 2 tickets to 7 regular season games in section 237 row 13 for $2000.00. I already donated the Tampa Bay tickets for a charity
Still another post urges fans to donate some of the proceeds from their ticket sales to charity.
Of course, Craig's list was awash with other posters looking to "help" fans who wanted to shed their tickets. Wrote one: "Vick haters look no further $100. I will take your tickets from you!!!!"

The Eagles will pay for this in karma forever. You watch, they will have a run of luck that makes them the Detroit Lions for the next 30 years.— JonKap- I LOVE dogs, but there are players that have done much worse, for instance, being involved in a strip club shooting, shooting yourself in the thigh and endangering everyone else in the club (and trying to cover it up), assaulting women and even KILLING a man with a car while drunk and high. If you are going to tell me that the cruelty to animals is worse than any of those above then there is something wrong with YOU. If anyone does not want their Eagles tickets, I'll take them and all the new "Eagle's Haters" better not even THINK of showing up for the parade down Broad Street when the Eagles do win the Super Bowl in the next couple years.— johnnyblazenj
- "If the Eagles are going to sell out, then so am I. 2 tickets to 7 regular season games in section 237 row 13 for $2000.00. I already donated the Tampa Bay tickets for a charity" I sit in Section 236, and only paid $1400.oo for my two tickets. So in his outrage at the vick signing he is asking for $600 over face value, plus it doesn't include the Bucs game, another $140, and the deal probably includes tickets to last nights pre-season game.— Section_725
- love it. come on people. Dump your tickets and I move up higher on the season ticket list! Go Birds!— ynot716
- blah, blah, blah. Here we go. I just checked craigslist. more people were selling eagles tix before Vick's signing than after. If people didn't put these players on a pedalstool in the first place, he would just be another felon trying to change his life and he would not have gotten a real job in this economy. It's these people who paid 2 and 3 thousand bucks to watch a game that created this monster. Enjoy!— mizevillynn7

- I like dogs too thought MV should have went to jail. He did his time and he is out and I want those tickets.— bigcityballer
- He served his time, did the community service - get over it. The guy is a football player, let him play. As mentioned, players have done FAR worse things to HUMANS and have still played the game. Maybe he should have a sitdown with Chase Utley and calm down all the nutty animal rights people.— H Dog 14
- Hey Johnny - Killing defenseless animals is nothing but a powertrip. That makes it wrong on many levels. If you were human, you'd understand that. MV stood over and tortured animals for pleasure. Do you not get how sick that is? That is one of the things psychiatrists watch for in budding sociopaths and psychopaths, the toruture and killing of animals. If you have no feeling, other than power and glee while a dog is screaming in agony you belong in intense therapy. You might want to check it out.
- johnnyblazenj--there is a bigger problem than DUI or shooting yourself in the leg here. when someones abuses animals - that will love you unconditionally - for fun or pleasure or profit, they are sick. Psychopaths, sociopaths...you know, like Jeffery Dahmer. You want to support him? Do you want kids looking up to him?— tas1869
- Based on the comments of the haters...Donte Stallworth should probably have been banned for life. He knowingly drove while impaired, killed someone, paid a big check to the victims family, serves less than a month and will make his money back the next year. Guess what...they were both sentenced...they both served their terms, they should both be able to play now...and while I'm at it...Pete should be in the hall and that vote should go to the fans...after all...it is the hall of "FAME." Fans should decide who is famous...not sportswriters.— ceocreates
