Implosion

Watching Michael Vick blow up in the public eye is certainly a strange experience.  I think it shows how resolute the human spirit is in demanding out-of-band excitement and interest, no matter how “ideal” its current lifestyle may be.

Somehow, it makes sense for a down-and-out or discouraged person to do stupid things, but for someone out on the pinnacle of fame?  Pretty incredible how the human mind works.

The departure of Rex Grossman is a far less philosophical event.  I think he would have been easier to take if he didn’t always have that “Wups, George, I did it again!” look on his face after every interception.  Ugh.  Bon voyage.
