I wonder if the league officials interfere often, or if this was a special case given the circumstances about Vick.

At least the NFL knew better than to send him to Cleavland.

If I was a Bills fan, I would want to kill myself.
...and once I heard this news, I would probably do it.

If I'm Ralph Wilson or Mike Brown, I'm on the phone w/the commish about Vick's claim that the league steered him to Philly. And I'm ticked.

So should someone take draft picks away from Goodell?

They only advised him that Philly would be better suited for the situation he was in, no big deal

Hey Mike Brown, don't think putting an ex-con in a locker room full of ex-cons is a good idea. Just sayin' .....

Brown deserves not getting Vick after how stubborn he's been in not trading Palmer. He could've swallowed his pride and at the same time helped his team get one or two draft picks in a trade, but nooo...so Palmer retired. Now, he's stuck with whomever is left on their roster and the Bengals will continue to suck...karma! Of course, there's the off chance that Dalton gets good really fast or Gradkowski fills in nicely in the meantime.
As for the Bills, they should call the commish and make a complaint. I didn't know the NFL hired a commissioner who also has roles of a scout and agent.

Based on that quote, it sounds like vick wanted to go somewhere else so that he wouldn't be the 3rd qb, and the commish, who had the authority to reinstate vick, convinced him to go to Philly instead. That seems like a big deal to me. Now Buffalo has been stuck with pretty good wrs but with Ryan Fitzpatrick to throw to them.

This is all about Roger trying to protect the image of the league. Not sure why Buffalo was a bad spot but you wouldn't have wanted Vick in that Cincy locker room. still the Roger should have remained impartial. Bad move by him.

Oh whatever. If buffalo REALLY wanted him they would have increased their offer
