    It doesn't help that Powerade features him on a commercial launching the freaking football nearly out of the stadium...but I remember a lot of people saying his arm alone will allow him to become a premiere QB, maybe one of the best ever...in addition he has scrambling ability and poise...I am gonna love the Texans, ( especially since Jeff has helped with the theme song ) but I sure wish he would have waited. No use in beating the dead horse with what-ifs but do any of yall know top players the Texans will consider next season? Thanks

    I wish he hadn't came out in the draft this year, either. Then again, he would've gotten pummeled with an expansion team...

    I had to a chance to meet Vick and watch him play. He is simply a freak of nature. He was very accurate and had a cannon for an arm. On one play, he threw the ball 40-50 yards downfield off his back foot (and off-balance). Geez. He's also a really nice guy, too. Very, very, very competitive. There was a video game tournament featuring a bunch of other top NFL rookies, and Vick killed them all at the Playstation 2 version of NFL Gameday. Vick even took that seriously. Hey, he's competitive and wins.

    That Powerade commercial was, um, fake. You can do lots of editing tricks nowadays...
