Vince Young to Sign Autographs Prior to Longhorns Spring Game--for $59

For most the t-shirt that says "Football is Life. The Rest is Just Details" is just a t-shirt. However, for football fans in the state of Texas that is not the case. Football really is life. How else can you explain Vince Young still being a big enough draw that he can charge $59 for an autograph?

Young is going to be signing autographs for fans prior to UT's spring game Saturday for $59 a pop. It's not as much as what some current NFL stars get away with charging at organized events like this, but when you consider that the last really meaningful accomplishment he had on the gridiron was at Texas I'm a little surprised he's getting as much as he is.

Than again, he is going to be doing it in a place where his name will forever be remembered as one of the greatest in school history so I guess it does make a little sense.

Hopefully when he's done Saturday he'll take decide to take a page out of Chad Johnson's playbook and hook up with a Canadian team. At 30 he should be a much more enticing player than 36-year old Ochocinco. Yeah, it's been a couple years since he's played, but he has been in camp for teams the last two seasons.

If he's holding out for the NFL--get over it Vince. Prove you still have it and just go play.
