Say it ain’t so Mike

I wanted to believe Mike Vick when he said he wasn’t involved with any dog fighting, I really did. But now I just feel like I don’t want him around anymore. Lately he’s been such a nuisance and a distraction on the Falcons and now he’s just making a mockery of the whole incident.

This is what he said to a local reporter outside a Falcons event in Atlanta:

REPORTER: Michael, do you think fans still support the Falcons?
VICK: They have to support us, dawg, that’s what fans do. They gotta
support us if they want us to win.
REPORTER: So amidst all the controversy you think they still support you?
VICK: Everyone supports me, man. I walk down the street, they all support Mike Vick. My job is to win football games.
REPORTER: So do you think in the end you’ll be exonerated from these dog
fighting allegations?
VICk: No comment, dawg.

Mike, just because you can run like a crazy mofo doesn’t mean everybody’s going to cut you a break on this one. And I guess since your job is to win football games, how about winning some man? We’ve been to the playoffs once since you got here and it wasn’t very pretty.

Is it too much to ask to have a decent team that doesn’t have constant controversy surrounding it? I was excited when Vick first got here but I’m pretty much over that now. If it turns out he is involved in all of this there’s going to be a jersey and a bobblehead going quickly to eBay. Read the rest of this entry »

All work and no play…

I’ve been so busy with buying this house and everything that I haven’t been able to post in a little while. Well we finally decided on the Brownstone Square townhouse (pictured earlier) and we’re going to be closing at the end of the month! … everything has happened so fast!!

But we’re both very excited and can’t wait to get in! Looking at them again I think we made the right decision. We actually got to meet our neighbors that are already in there and they said they liked it there a lot.

One thing was kind of odd though….while were looking at it after we signed the contract we came outside and found this guy hanging out in our driveway:

It’s called an alligator turtle and man did he look nasty.

For those of you who need that in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle terms, it’s the thing that becomes this:

Thanks Wikipedia!

We think he crawled out from the creek across the street. Luckily our dog Chloe wasn’t with us or she would have definitely been freaking out…possibly got her nose bitten or something worse. I hope that’s the last we see of any of those things.

Anyway we’re just getting everything packed up and ready to go now, can’t wait to get in there!
