Maybe Jim-Jim will work an Eagles game later this year

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if he went nuclear over some innocent comment in THAT setting?

I don't think

That Mora was really in the wrong here.
Gottlieb asked some really dumb, flat and insulting (snidely) questions to Mora, which could make any man lash back and say “huh?”

Mora doesn’t want to talk bad about anybody that he favors especially (would we want to rat on our friends/loved ones). So he won’t talk about how bad Vick performed in Atlanta.
But it is true that Vick did make probowls and we were somewhat competitive in Mora’s tenure, and he was our best player despite his half hearted efforts.
We truly didn’t know his background until much later.
Mora may have not been a great coach/motivator and Vick may have not tried his best, but at least Mora has the respect for not trying to talk badly about something that happened in the past. The Future is Now!!!

I don't think people should be allowed to pretend the past doesn't exist

Mora made some dumb mistakes while he was here. If he expects to go his entire life without anyone bringing that up, he’s sorely mistaken.

I thought the questions were fair.

But I don't think he was advoiding that nor that's what he was doing

He already knows what the past is, but it’s not important to dwell on that.
What Michael Vick did in the past is bad and what Ray Lewis did is bad, but they are forgivable.
I think it makes all three of them a better person however.
