Did anyone else watch the Vick statement this morning? I know a lot of you are in Utah, and I admittedly stalled around and made myself late for work waiting for ESPN to show it. I actually thought he did a really good job. I was just wondering what everyone else thought about it.

The oddest thing on ESPN this morning was when they had a bunch of guys in the studio debating whether or not racism was a factor. I thought the black guys were making an excellent arguement, and it was just starting to get interesting when all of the sudden they cut away to show the podium where Vick was going to give his address. Not a sould in sight anywhere on the screen. Just a bare wall, with a podium at the bottom of the picture. The press conference was still a good 10-15 minutes out. So after we get left staring at that for a few minutes they went back to the debate. It wasn't as interesting when they went back. I get the feeling we missed the best part to stare at nothingness.
