Young sorry for Internet photos

To Vince Young, it was simply a night on the town. A good time with friends and an offseason release from the pressure that goes with being an NFL quarterback. With the push of a button, however, it became something much bigger. Photos of the partying Titans quarterback on the Internet last week appeared mostly innocent, but they led to questions about everything from his football commitment to his lifestyle... "I apologize to some of the kids if they did see it because I am trying to be a role model for them," Young said after practice Thursday. "But at the same time, I was just trying to have fun."

Usually when I socialize I like to include some ladies. I generally try to keep my shirt on around other drunken half naked men. Its not like the guy got drunk on a boat and tasered though. All in all I think Vince is a decent guy.

This is a story about nothing. Same thing with Matt Leinart. These QBs aren't preachers or pastors. They're regular men...enjoy life.

At least Vince was wearing panties.

Camera phones are everywhere.

Anyone who plays for the Titans deserves to drink alot

How on earth is partying in the off season comparable to Rose or Bonds? HUH?

Wow this is a weird picture. Where are the chicks? Let the guy do what he wants as long as no laws are being broke and it doesn't affect his play (or in his case lack thereof)

Jesus Christ, a little early to be drinking isn't it?

What amazes me is that athletes have been doing this forever...all the way back to Babe Ruth and even before that, but they take so much heat for it now. I understand it's more public with the internet and all, but is it really so bad that an athlete goes to a party in the offseason? I don't get it.

Camera phones should be outlawed. There is no privacy. Just waiting the day when someone snaps a pic of a celebrity, sports star or whomever, taking a leak or in a bathroom stall. What a lousy world we live in now.

For once, you and I are in total agreement here.

I find it hard to agree with an Eagles fan, but you are correct here. That is a "weird" picture too..

May 23, 2008  08:18 AM ET

At least he has good taste in Tequila. Still, a bunch of dudes standing around in a club with their shirts off... Was this at the Blue Oyster bar?

That's it? That's the photo? Everyone is making a fuss about THAT photo? Looks like a family reunion picnic that got rained out and moved inside to the recreation room. Vince Young has nothing to apologize for. Gimme a break.
