    Michael Vick Receives Ed Block Courage Award
    by Michael Coomer

    With protesters outside, Michael Vick was awarded the Ed Block Courage Award.

    The award is presented to players who show a commitment to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. Vick was selected unanimously by his team mates.

    "I'm very humbled to be here," Vick said before the award ceremony. "I'm blessed to be voted by my peers, to be here, and this is an opportunity that I will take advantage of and cherish forever."

    This is the first award Vick has received since being reinstated in September 2009.

    Vick ran the wildcat offense for the Philadelphia Eagles and completed six of 13 passes for 86 yards and one touchdown.


    Meanwhile, this poor fella's courage under duress went unnoticed:




    To paraphrase Ron Weasely: We really need to sort out our priorities!"
    "I thought the only way we could beat Bama is if they came in unmotivated like we did against Boise. Bama wasn't caught off guard, OU didn't use cheap-*** trickeration...for 60 minutes we punched them in the face and they went down." - SoonernAR

    Vick's courage was displayed when?

    When I think of courage, I think of:

    Admiral Nelson



    John Basilone



    Hans Rudel



    Buzz Aldrin
