Good find Box, thanks. In addition to the glowing praise of BB and SP and the Patriots organization, I liked this one as well..

Quote:

Cody from Jacksonville: I read recently that the NFL owners have proposed that they will look into outlawing quarterbacks being hit in the legs. I understand there are those instances of Carson Palmer's catastrophic injury, but aren't all players subject to this type of risk? Is it fair to say quarterbacks are extremely babied these days as if they are too fragile to play real football? What are your thoughts?
Vic: The solution is simple. If you don't want your quarterback to get hit, then run the ball. It's time the owners stop letting these sissy finesse teams ruin the game.

This was a good read. Here's my quote:

"Tony from Greenville, SC: What do you think of the Adam Vinatieri signing for the Colts?
Vic: Three-and-a-half million dollars of signing bonus for a kicker? Are you kidding me? Two million a year in salary for a kicker? The Colts are now going to pay Vinatieri for all of the big kicks he made for the Patriots, just as the Jaguars paid Hugh Douglas for all the sacks he made for the Eagles."

Kind of like a pension.
