One of the teams most often considered as a potential candidate to sign quarterback Mike Vick has said that Vick won’t be joining said team.
Sort of.
Saints G.M. Mickey Loomis has said that his team has “no plans” to sign Vick, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
“No plans” is a far cry from “no way.”
So until we hear the latter, we won’t add this team to the Anti-Vick List.
They’ve got nothing behind starter Drew Brees, and all tickets for 2009 already are sold. Besides, the Saints can do no wrong in New Orleans, a city that knows first-hand the potential that Vick possesses.
Throw in an arguably desperate head coach with a soft spot for cinematic story lines, and Vick could get his chance to but his sins behind him as a member of the Saints.
