Vince Young puts Tennessee Titans troubles behind him, focuses on NFL future
Charity game, future have QB's attention

Vince Young wants to leave the past in the past even though he faces a future full of unknowns."Life is good," said the former Titans quarterback, who's in Nashville to take pa
rt in the Celebrity Basketball Slam Jam at Tennessee Statetoday. "Right now, I am just enjoying it and waiting to see what happens next.

"Being back in Nashville, I always get a warm welcome when I come back, a lot of hugs, a lot of welcome back wishes. I know some people want to talk about negative things that went on when I was here, but I have great memories from here. It's all good to me."

Young, released by the Titans after the 2010 season, played for the Eagles last season as Michael Vick's backup. Now he's a free agent.

Young said he expects to have several teams to choose from, but not until after the NFL Draft on April 26-28 — which also happens to be the weekend he's getting married in Cabo San Lucas.

what do y'all think happens with him? I know I have a higher opinion of him than I should, but I could definitely see a team like Miami bringing him in to compete for a starting spot if they don't get a QB in the draft (Tannehill) but that's probably his only shot to start at this point, I could also see him winding up back with the Eagles backing up Vick if nobody gives him an offer to start. I would say he could provide a decent stop gap for a team that drafts someone, but I don't know how he'd look at that opportunity and I'm not sure any front office would want to put him in that position, usually you want to bring in an old vet who can mentor the rookie (see Hasselbeck/Locker) so I'm really not sure what happens with him at this point.

Vince Young was Tebow before Tebow got to the NFL, with putting up some poor stats yet winning most of his starts. But Tebow is a high character guy and VY is stupid. It wouldn't suprise me if nobody signed him and he had to settle on some UFL shit or whatever is out there.

Pretty much what the first two posts said. Even when brought in to be a backup, everyone freaks out about having the talent and athletic ability on the bench and thinks he should be put in with optimism. Then he shows you what he's not capable of.

say what you want, but VY was improving a lot his last few years in Tennessee, though he did look awful when he came in last year in relief of Vick so who knows

Yeah, his final year here he looked like someone who could live up to being the #3 overall draft pick and being a franchise QB. Then he blew it all by showing he still hadn't grown up in the slightest.

Bay  : (19 May 2013 - 11:16 PM) So the injured to hell team is his fault?
BradyFan81  : (19 May 2013 - 11:17 PM) Josh beckett injured and sucking? didn't see that one coming
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:18 PM) Kinsler will probably only need the 15 days to recover but you never know.
SteVo+  : (19 May 2013 - 11:18 PM) I know he's up because of Kinsler, I'm just wondering if he stays here once Kinsler comes back. Or does it depend on how he plays?
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:18 PM) Should've seen him after their BP imploded today
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:18 PM) He looked like a defeated man
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:18 PM) His eyes were dead
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:19 PM) I imagine if he plays well it will make things interesting.
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:19 PM) Regardless, I didn't drop a world beater to pick him up, so w/e.
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:19 PM) Worth a shot. :yep:
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:20 PM) If he plays well enough they can trade Kinsler to the Braves
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:21 PM) Nah, he'll go down again even if he plays well. No room. :(
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:23 PM) I remember seeing on MLBTR a few weeks ago a poll suggesting the Rangers and Card should swap Profar and Taveras
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:23 PM) :shifty:
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:23 PM) Profar on the Cards would be so unfair
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:23 PM) The NL might as well throw in the towel at that point
BenJarvus Gr...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:24 PM) Profar will bust
BenJarvus Gr...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:25 PM) and lmao @ Miguel
BenJarvus Gr...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:25 PM) Posted Image
BenJarvus Gr...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:25 PM) that's from tonight :rofl:
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:25 PM) :nope:
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:25 PM) Profar rises to the occasion. :yep:
BradyFan81  : (19 May 2013 - 11:26 PM) Is Profar known more as a defensive whiz or a hitting type player?
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:26 PM) Dominated 2 Future Games, Homered in his first ever Big League AB. lol
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:26 PM) Both.
Mathias  : (19 May 2013 - 11:26 PM) http://www.youtube.c...h?v=cwU_4KsK2YU
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:27 PM) A guy who is all D would never be the consensus #1 prospect in the sport
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:28 PM) Wonder if he got the ball back, lol.
BradyFan81  : (19 May 2013 - 11:29 PM) didn't know he was the #1 prospect
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:32 PM) :yep:
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:34 PM) But still, our Curacao SS > Ranger's Curacao SS
BradyFan81  : (19 May 2013 - 11:37 PM) i feel bad for blue jay fans
BradyFan81  : (19 May 2013 - 11:37 PM) thought they finally had a winner this year, end up being worse than last year
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 May 2013 - 11:51 PM) lmao, almost every book in that "Best pieces of literature" thread are books I was supposed to read in school but never actually read
JetsFan4Life  : (19 May 2013 - 11:52 PM) I don't Brady.
JetsFan4Life  : (19 May 2013 - 11:53 PM) A lot of them were apparently very pompous about it.
BLUE  : (19 May 2013 - 11:59 PM) I really only know 2 Blue Jays fans, one online and one IRL.
BLUE  : (20 May 2013 - 12:00 AM) Both are pretty humble.
JetsFan4Life  : (20 May 2013 - 12:08 AM) Tom Hamilton (radio guy) said when they went there for the opening series everyone in Toronto was smug. Thought they were already in championship contention.
BenJarvus Gr...  : (20 May 2013 - 12:14 AM) Jays fans made for some absolute gem .gifs during Opening Week this year lol
BenJarvus Gr...  : (20 May 2013 - 12:16 AM) my favorite: http://sportshangove...4/jayshandy.gif

BenJarvus Gr...  : (20 May 2013 - 12:23 AM) blowjob guy behind home plate is good, but Jays hand job guy is better IMO :yep:
