His team is tied for first in the NFC East division with a handsome 6-3 record. His performance last night was statistically unprecedented. To boot, he’s Top-10 in total Fantasy points.

Mike Vick’s status hasn’t been this high since Madden NFL 2004.

MikeVick.com is set to launch today – if it does, what can I say, impeccable timing. Currently however, the site is one giant link to the NFL Pro Bowl ballot, hmmm?

Begs the obvious question, would you vote for Vick? It may end up being the ultimate vote of confidence from the fans. There are plenty of people – for example, the Mike Vick Facebook fans – who are congratulating him on turning his life around. This character analysis is clearly referencing his 115 QB rating and 11 touchdowns with zero interceptions. Those who truly feel that Vick’s performance is a feel-good comeback story should cast their ballot and validate.

I personally think it’s a no brainer vote.

Truthfully, I turned on the game briefly – just long enough to get a sense of Mike Tirico blase approach to commentating such an abomination of a football game, which was funny.

After that fleeting tune-in (don’t count me in the tune-in numbers, Nielsen folks), I watched The Fantastic Mr. Fox (1:20 movie; so, roughly an 1:18:56 more time invested than the game) and Big Love (Happy to see that the show is not going with the Ben’s Alt-Christian band storyline, but rather him mired in a good old fashion seduction with Margene).

Smokey & The Bandit was also on – if I hadn’t already seen it six times…

Anyone else catch anything good last night while they were skipping the game? Because unless your name is Tirico you probably watched something good while skipping the game – I’m sure Gruden checked out and had the engineer pipe Burt Reynolds and Sally Field on HBO Comedy into the booth on his monitor at the beginning of the third quarter.
