Electronic Arts delivers. Swift Michael Vick is joining the Madden NFL 10 roster after his reinstatement into the NFL. Specifically, he will wear the Kelly green, silver, and brilliant white as all members of the Philadelphia Eagles. In the gallery below you can check out a few fresh images of the quarterback in action.
Michael Vick was booted from the football league several years ago. He served a two-year prison sentence in Virginia for animal cruelty charges after it was found that the millionaire operated a dog-fighting ring. His reinstatement comes with a caveat: Vick is suspended an additional several weeks.
We haven’t taken a gander at his stats, but we’re guessing prison hasn’t boosted his accuracy rating, which was always a touchy stat when he was included in the game.

Anyways, glad he's in the game. Accurate team rosters and all.
That made me laugh.
That, and the fact that apparently stores selling his jersey can't keep them on the shelves. I keep hearing people in the Philly area bashing him and the team...yet they are buying up his merchandise?
After all, fighting animals against each other for entertainment and humanely slaughtering for food are totally in the same realm.

And yes, both can be broken down to an argument of ethics and beliefs.
anyway, as this is actually a game forum...apart from the circus sideshow that he is, vick is a joke of a quarterback. perhaps ea actually gets it right this time by not allowing him to scramble at will and throw 50 yd.td bombs.
