I see that Vince Amey went to Chicago (with Bonner). Anyone know why he left? Did the Rattlers not want him back or did he want to follow his QB or something else? (money?) I liked him on the team. He had a fun personality, plus I like it when the Rattlers sign former Sun Devils. Too bad he's gone.

I was told by one of the Rattlers Players that Vince wanted to come back, but was not given an offer. He was one of my favorites. It will be sad to not see him in a rattlers uniform. I think we are down to seven or eight players that were on the roster last year.

It will surly be a new Rattlers team with just a small sprinkling of the old players. I am willing to wait to see how Coach Guy puts this mess together it will be interesting for sure.

Time to quit living in the past ! New team, new coach. Yes Vince was a fun guy to watch, but a middle of the road player. Enough with the guys that like to sign their autographs, let's find some real football players !!!

All know I usually don't hold back on my views, but I planned on posting my views on Amey, but didn't feel like raining on his parage. Your quote was quite accurate, and I have the very same opinion. I do feel you were a bit kind stating that he was a middle of the road player, when in fact he was below average. If Wendell Gains was double teamed, then Amey had a chance, but he rarely beat his opponent on his own merits. Time to move on with a chapter in Rattlers football.....big john

Fair enough I suppose. But I didn't see anyone posting negative comments about Amey when he was on the team.

Vince Amey was released by Chicago today. I would imagine he will most likely retire if he cant hook on with somebody else real soon. In spite of his Average Play I liked Vince and wish him the best in all he does in the future
