Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months in prison for his role in a felony dogfighting ring ithat took place in his hometown of Newport News, Va.
This means Vick, who is missing this entire season, will miss the 208 and 2009 seasons. The earliest he will play is 2010.
My take? Vick is done. His NFL career is finished. He better rehabilitate himself and learn how to become a public speaker and motivate some people not to follow his path because no team will take a chance on him as a starter with all the baggage. Maybe Arthur Blank can give him a pay cut and let him play for the Georgia Force.
Vick doesn’t deserve to ever play football again. With the amount of money he was making while playing a game - A GAME! - he doesn’t deserve the privilege of making Atlanta’s, or any city’s, fans happy ever again. Hopefully he’ll right the wrongs in his demonized past but I wouldn’t count on it based on his history of all talk, no walk.
