Vick is a poor sport! (1 Viewer)

So after he bashed the NYG's for not congratulating them after their win, he doesn't move off the bench to congratulate the packers. What a hypocrite.

 
Not sure it deserves its own thread but it's a good observation...except for the fact that after the break they showed Vick shaking hands with Driver. :thumbdown:

He also came up to shake Rodger's hand during Rodger's interview after the game. Perhaps he needed a few minutes to collect himself after the loss. who could blame him?

IMO the OP's opinion is really quite a stretch.

:goodposting: Very weak op.
:confused: People are too quick to jump to conclusions to bash someone when they don't see everything that is going on just what they show on the tv for a split second.
 
IMHO I wouldn't either. I don't get how you as a player can shake hands with the team that just beat you in the playoffs, acting as if you didn't even just play the game. I know it always bothered me when I was younger and lost. Still does

 
wow, whoever started this thread is a major hater considering Vick was on national tv shaking hands with the packers players. get a life instead of making up bull about a player you don't like.

It's called life goes on. (No offense. I used to be the same way)

Because they don't care all that much about winning or losing. The money still shows up in the bank account. They'd like to win, but this is a job. The guys who beat them are co-workers. The fans hold grudges; the players smile and schedule tee times.

You people have no idea about the concept of sportsmanship.

I understand the concept of money in sports. You care about the final score more than they do.

Honestly, I wish they would do away with the meeting in the middle of the field period. There are two groups of fans who wring their hands needlessly over them:1) ______________ player/coach does not go shake other side's hand. I have never been sure why this shows sportsmanship, but that maybe a thread discussion on its own. As a player (kid) I though it as something that was a tradition that noone evey really explain why it was a tradition.2) ______________ player/coach goes to center of the field and has the nerve to smile or even laugh a little bit with the other side. Even when it is documented that the players/coaches involved have a long history, this fan gets mad because his team's player is not angry enough over losing. Let's be for real, there would be a negative Mike Vick thread, if he went over after the game and had a quick chuckle with Rodgers. Instead of a bad sportsman, he would not take the game seriously.

Saw him congratulating several and in the big prayer circle at midfield.

I guess people just like to bash the guy.

 
Who cares what Vick does after his team loses? If you have enough time to worry about what some pro athlete does after a game, you really need to get a life. If you have that much free time, there are hundreds of organizations that would love to have your help. Volunteer at a hospital, homeless shelter, the Good Will, or a food bank. Get off the couch and do something to help society rather than compain about nonsense.

:thumbdown: Some people hate the guy for what he did to those dogs. I get that. But move on. Vick may have not sprinted off the bench as soon as the clock went to 00:00 , but he did go out on the field after the game to congratulate the Packers.The OP needs to do a little more research before starting a thread like this. :mellow:

I thought Jackson came up to Rogers during the interviewI know I saw Vick talking to Packer players on the field

You can't possibly be serious. Sure, the players don't hold grudges, but to say they don't care as much about winning as fans do is ludicrous. You couldn't be more wrong about this.
 
i've played/coached alot of games. dont quite understand all the to do about ''sportsmanship''. if you compete as hard as you can and dont cheap shot anyone...this is great sportsmanship in my opinion and is all you owe your compititors. sure i have always shook hands with my competition after a game, but if one of my compititors didnt shake my hand...it wouoldnt bother me in the least.

Capitalization is good sportsmanship on message boards.

As someone else who has played/coached many games in my time. This is BS. Always respect your opponent(s) after the contest, win, lose, or draw.

im not sure you read/understood my post.i always shook hands with with my comp's after the game (win, lose, or draw). would you take it personal if someone didnt shake your hand after a contest? i wouldnt, but maybe im in the minority.

You're not the minority and the only ones that care are the ones who've never played. Even if Vick didn't every GB packer wouldn't have cared or remembered unless it was someone he had a personal relationship with.
 
I love how everyone who isn't swinging from Vick's nut sack is a hater. Then again, I do hate him and completely enjoyed seeing him blow that game yesterday. I can only guess you forgive pedifiles after they do their time? Maybe let them babysit your kids?

Was a dog killer. Not anymore big fella.
I never hear anyone say "he was a murderer" or "he was a convicted felon", it is always, "he's a murderer" or "he's a convicted felon".So Vick will always be a Dog Killer.

I have no issues with Vick and I actually like his comeback story but you can't say he WAS a dog killer. At one point in his life he killed dogs, so he will always be a dog killer. To the original poster, it would be nice if you would come back and eat a little crow and admit what a useless thread this is.
