Reid names Vick starter
Andy Reid has named Michael Vick the starting quarterback for this Sunday's game against the Jaguars. (Ron Cortes / Staff Photographer) Eagles coach Andy Reid has named Michael Vick the starting quarterback, the team announced tonight in a stunning reversal. The move appears to be for the season.
An Eagles source said Reid still believes Kevin Kolb can be a high-quality starter, but that Vick was playing too well to be benched. His mobility, in particular, is something the team thinks they need to win now behind a shaky offensive line.
The Eagles leadership was unified in its decision on the starter, according to a front office source.
The decision is a sharp change for Reid, who on Sunday said Kevin Kolb would start Sunday in Jacksonville. Asked then if it would be hard to go back to Kolb given the way Vick played against the Lions, Reid said no.Vick himself said Monday that Kolb would start.
Looking back on Monday's press conference with hindsight, though, it appeared that Reid left the door open that day when asked again about Kolb's status.
"We'll just see how it all works out," Reid said Monday. "I'm not here to justify one over the other, I'm not doing that. I told you before, I'm very proud of Michael. Michael's a great player. Michael was one of the all-time great ones in this league at one time and he's on his way back. I think we were able to see that and I think that's a great, great thing. Kevin's future is, he hasn't had the same experience here as Michael has, but his future is a bright one."
Asked about getting Vick on the field, Reid said, "Yeah, Michael will be out there. We'll see how it goes."
The Eagles have invested three years in grooming Kolb and have touted his potential all off-season, even extending his contract. But Vick's dazzling play in six quarters against the Packers and Lions apparently were enough to change even Reid's mind.
More once Reid's 6:30 conference call begins

Nope, not at all.
He's just NOT all your making him out to be.
He's not even in the TOP 15 QB's in the league, IF he was he would have STARTED the season as a Starter.
I KNEW I should have said Top 10
It's WAY to early to use those stats to form a real opinion.
What would have happened had Kolb went 8-10 and 150 yard and a TD ?
Kolb played 2 quarters this year and they gave up on him.....
Wait to see how Vick is doing when they have to play a few teams with a D included.

Agree. Lets just say, Vick looks better with the poor offensive line we currently have to work with.I KNEW I should have said Top 10

Again this is the Pros. Not High School.
A Good quarterback does what he has to do to make a play, Not stand there like a dummy and get slammed face first into the ground.
Know could you Imagine Kolb? He would be dead in full game.

Well if he has a quick release and makes quick desigins, it would not be a problem at all .......
Oh, he doesn't do either of those ? Yikes !!!!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Yup, I agree, I'd rather be 2 or 3 till the last few weeks.They get cruel sometimes, very very cruel.
Season 2 order already in hand:
'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1
I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
Stay out of my office. I rarely have shoes or socks on in the office. My office and business is at home thoughI don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
