Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Mike Vick scored 6 touchdowns on the hapless Redskins in a memorable Monday Night football game last night.

The former Atlanta Falcons quarterback who lost his job when he was convicted of running a dog fighting ring, did everything right last night.

The MVP candidate led the Eagles to a convincing 59-28 win over the Redskins. He finished the night with 333 passing yards that resulted in 4 touchdowns, and he rushed for 88 yards and 2 more touchdowns.

Any other quarterback would have been celebrated on all the network morning shows today. But Vick’s riveting performance on the field was buried under the news of Prince Williams’ engagement to his girlfriend of 8 years, Kate Middleton in London.

Many blacks who thought racism would vanish completely in America after they helped elect Barack Obama to the presidency, expressed dismay on social networks facebook and Twitter this morning.

Outraged nationally syndicated Morning show host Rickey Smiley, who can be heard locally on Hot 107.9, lashed out at CNN’s Tony Harris, calling him a “house nigga” and a “sell out” for “doggin'” Vick on the network today.


Despite the fact that Vick has paid his debt to society, that same society seems unwilling to forgive him for his past behavior.

Vick was released from prison in 2009 after serving 2 years for torturing and killing pit bulls. He was subsequently dropped by the Falcons after attempts to trade him failed.

He signed with the Philadelphia Eagles and was reinstated to play in Week 3 of the 2009 season.
