That's pretty neat. Would you please tell us if he had anything interesting to say to you?

Yeah, I think that'd be cool to hear. Always wanted to spend time with a professional athlete

To not seem like a groupie, we kept it pretty basic.  We were in the same foursome, but different carts.  So our convo was limited to the teebox and while waiting to putt.  He's a damn good player and probably sports about a +10 handicap.  We talked a lot about kids, family, life after football.  Of course I brought up the Ravens and he said Ray Lewis communicated w/ him at least twice a week while he was incarcerated.  He said he has so much respect for Ray that if Ray needed anything he would be there for him in hrs.   He's very cool with Tyrod Taylor and he spoke very highly of Flacco. He said ANY QB that did what Joe did in the post season the year they won the Super Bowl would be automatically considered elite.  Feels that Joe doesn't get the respect that he deserves but he's respected in the league.

That's pretty awesome. He seems like a changed person for the better

That's a cool story, Mike's so polarizing but I think he has changed for the better.

Nice to hear him say some good things about the team, too. He and Joe did a golf event for Ron Jaworskis charity a few weeks ago.

If RBates (or whoever is obsessed with running QB's) sees this, I'm afraid his head will explode.

That's really cool though, thanks for sharing. Vick was once my favorite player ever.

It would. Especially since he idolizes him. But hey, if anyone knows a QB, it's another QB

Pretty cool...if you want to play golf with a lowlife, scum of a human being. Ha.

Honestly dude, get over it, he did a terrible thing almost 8 years ago. Can you give him a chance? He's been clean ever since.

Dude, that's really cool. Spending time w/ a guy that has had the life experiences that Vick has had is such a rare opportunity. Regardless of his legal issues, which this is not a forum to discuss really, that is a valuable life experience.

Its just one comment. Nothing for me to "get over". Nevertheless, it was a heinous and unforgivable series of events in my opinion.
