    Vince Young said that his "Dream Team" comment, which many within the media and some players and coaches from other teams have emphasized in the weeks after the Eagles went on a free agent signing spree, was taken out of context. But the quarterback didn't exactly back away from the statement either. "That's pretty much how it go with Vince Young," Young said Monday at the NovaCare Complex. "My words always get taken out of context. It's just basically what I mean. We do have some really talented guys and I feel like if we continue to keep working and taking care of our responsibilities and finish like a team like we want to finish I feel like that's pretty much how I called it. How everybody want to take it that's how everybody is going to take it. Just how the Miami Heat was -- them guys ended up being in the NBA Finals. So it's all about getting your chemistry right, playing together and taking stepping stones to get where you want to be." Young made the comparison to the 1992 U.S. Olympic basketball team the day after the Eagles signed the former Titans quarterback as a free agent. Eagles coach Andy Reid and the team's front office have tried their best to distance themselves from any "Dream Team" comparisons. So did Young regret the statement? "That's just how I feel," Young said. "I don't care what nobody else says, that's how I feel about the guys here. I have a lot of respect for each and [every] one of the guys in this locker room, as well as our coaches. That's just how I feel. You can't tell me not what to say. At the same time, that's just how I feel. If we continue to keep working as a team, as a structured unit, as coaches and everybody that's pretty much in this locker room, I really feel we can be -- if we take the days day by one day -- to get ourselves better and where we want to be at."

    If the Eagles do live up to the hype and are a Dream Team it won't be because of anything he's done. He'll just be along for the ride so maybe he should shut it and let the players that matter on that team speak.

    This.

    Vince Young will sit there and watch from the sideline. That's the most he should be doing with any team, anyway.
