Gottlieb: Arthur Blank and Michael Vick talk Falcons

[@jacobjackson7013]

I remember watching Blank push Vick around in the wheelchair all season the year he broke his leg in the preseason... He'll always be a Falcon.

[@gsabella4]

Exactly brotha. Something so rare, this owner-player relationship as strong as Blank- Vick. Awesome. Redskins fan here, but always have been a Vick Fan.

[@MrAtlfan21]

I was at that game when he broke it

[@PoliticallyInCorrect1]

and despite lying he had mercy from blank. im happy for tht

[@jasonray8530]

Touching moment with, along with primetime, one of the most exciting Falcons to wear the red & black.....Its so good to see Arthur Blank have this moment, he and his family have worked so hard. Congrats Arthur!

[@bakkpi4275]

I finally got closer...I'm very happy now...Vick still be a falcon forever

[@camel595]

closure*

[@camel595]

the MJ of the NFL for a short time and he played for our city, completely revolutionized the game. Such an icon

[@ej9309]

Arthur Blank is a Great Owner, I like how he brings Michael Vick to talk and for him to Bring Vick back for the final game at the Dome

[@sirBighead12]

That Velvet Jacket is the MVP of the segment btw.

[@atlpeach7186]

LOL, Right!!

[@AKABoondock19]

Its great to see someone who had sunk so low rise again. I hate what Vick did, but I love to see that he seems to have grown massively as a man, has taken responsibility, and feels genuine remorse. Hope he lives the rest of his life just like this.

[@noahda3877]

Arthur Blank defines the term class act

[@sirBighead12]

Wow I was like 'together'?! We live and learn and do it all again. Mr Blank is a class act.

[@JavierRodriguez-qm5qc]

Coming from a bucs fan I love vick he's the best ever qb to do what he did

[@bigcock8900]

Without a doubt the best dual threat, he barely practiced with his time on the Falcons and he did nothing but break records and make big plays every game

[@KingDrudge]

Atlanta & Michael Vick. That city and that name are intertwined forever.

[@Ebd1990]

He is always so humble.

[@zmoneytmnt]

People forget how much Vick carried them in Atlanta. In 02 when he beat Brett farve in the playoffs. They had a great chance to beat the Eagles when they were down 13-6. Against the #2 defense Vick drove his team down the field and made a incredible run to the endzone only to have it called back on a holding call that had nothing to do with the play. After that the falcons missed the field goal. The next possession Vick made 2 perfect passes for first downs that were dropped on 2nd and 3rd which lead to a punt. After that the Eagles scores a TD to ice the game. I remember thinking to myself that the game was one of the biggest games that I’ve seen a team let one player down

[@luke304]

Vick the goat

[@luke304]

Cj James 169 touchdowns and he changed the game at QB FOH

[@rampooni8122]

Arthur is a class A individual

[@Jnel28]

Vick is the greatest falcon ever ... literally carried team on back

[@gregs7460]

Jnel28 I beg to differ. No way was he the greatest Falcon ever. He was very talented and exciting, but never reached greatness.

[@shoopdawhoop217]

Greg S name a better Falcon that changed the rather way he did

[@jaynyce5923]

Greg S No Falcon has reached greatness Lmaooo they 0-2 in the Superbowl

[@Falconsfan1020]

Jay Casado Deion sanders? Jamal Anderson? Julio jones? Michael Vick? You're telling me none of those players are great?

[@fuckyofeelings1]

@@Falconsfan1020Mike Vick was better than all of them

[@abdulcaderasmal7631]

Its rare to find two people with such class addressing each other with such mutual respect, especially when there is such an economic disparity between the player and the owner and the sickness of racism that often lurks on the sidelines. Good luck to them both in their future, and though the Patriots earned their epic win I am sorry for the Falcons Mr Blank and Micheal Vick that the Falcons were unable to pull it off

[@cathyharden3937]

build a Vick statue

[@IZSIN222]

Lmao

[@DWILSONBR-NOLA]

The Greatest Right? Matt RYAN is Getting 1, I Loved Vick. But he Fucked up Ruin it for ATL, and on top of dat, Mike NEVER took us to a SUPER BOWL

[@DWILSONBR-NOLA]

Cathy Harden So, Mike ain't betta than Matt, that's just the Truth

[@gregs7460]

Cathy Harden Matt Ryan is much better, but Michael Vick deserves credit for making the Falcons exciting to watch

[@kirkgibbsrossi]

Greg S there's a difference. ..a big difference! I'm tired of people giving quaterbacks skill credit but reality is they can't do what they do without the help of the team but MV is a true talent on his own. His talent made stuff happen happen even tho he didn't have the team Matty Defrost has

[@johnsanchez2565]

no disrespect to matt Ryan hes a great qb, hes the leader of our team now but no1 will ever replace #7 he changed the game and will always be my favorite falcon

[@williamh.gatesiii8183]

why am I tearing up??? wtf man.

[@eatsleepdrumrepeat375]

Thats awsome

[@brandonbrown2051]

shot out to Arthur

[@rollsroyce7385]

respect👍👍

[@MsNikkiFree]

Forgiveness is a powerful healing tool. I am happy to see he will retire a Falcon.

[@MentalMarc]

He deserves his jersey retired. Not only did he make the Falcons a reason to watch, Falcons fan or not, but he also changed the QB running game.

[@jaimejared4239]

#VICKSTERNATION

[@FalconsFanForever]

he's always a Falcon

[@PoliticallyInCorrect1]

BRING VICK BACK .

[@brandonhardman9714]

NOOOO! Michael Vick is still the best quarterback ever to hit Atlanta. I don't care how old many years go by Michael Vick will always be. him, Julio, Warrick Dunn, Jessie Tuggle, Jamal Anderson Dirty bird, Roddy White

[@darinweaver9976]

he still got love 4 vick he will find a place 4 vick in A T L

[@dirtybirds2323]

I love Vick great memories watching him but I still will hold a grudge that he never took us here should of atleast once maybe twice had he tried to be NFL QB n not just a athlete!!

[@CJThyGlorious]

this legit

[@jemelmoore7329]

Clark Gable owns the Falcons?!

[@c.l.b5271]

is mike vick a hall of famer?

[@elite1266]

Happy for Vick but we are much better with 5,000 passing yards and MVP QB. Vick was much more athletic and had a better arm but didn't have the mental capacity that Matt Ryan has. Best of luck to Mike Vick he will always be remembered by Falcons as a great player!

[@zyartist4646]

Falcons will go 19-0 next year (I'm not a falcons fan)

[@cheesetoitles453]

Zachary Anderson I am a flacons fan and I see 18-1 with a loss to Dallas in the regular season and then we take revenge in the playoffs just like we did with Seattle and we whoop the pats and this time when we are up 28-3 we score 31 more unanswered

[@234Tbaby]

Arthur blank so rich he gave Vick and Matt Ryan 300 million dollars

[@matrix8750]

he was imprisoned by the system
