That's All Folks, For Now
Keep those clips of Michael Vick at the mike on Monday doing a mea culpa because it may be all we see and hear for a while.
A well placed DC source tells me the Vick legal team met yesterday following Vick's court appearance and talk to the cameras.
It was decided that no one on the Vick team would be making further public comments or appearances for the next two weeks or so..
In the meantime Michael Vick should be meeting with the NFL head Roger Goodell and his investigative team lead by former DC judge and Assistant Attorney Eric Holder. Vick's lawyers want him back on the field within a year. Observers say two or three years is more likely.
Vick's plea agreement requires him to co-operate with Prosecutors, so a meeting in this arena could also take place where Vick might say if other pro football layers bet on the dog fights arranged by Vick's Bad Newz kennel.
And on yet a third front, the Atlanta Falcons are trying to take back the $22 million they paid the star quarterback in bonus money. Sports observers say at best they might get six or seven mill back. Still, it's yet another fire that Vick, his legal and public relations team will be trying to put out in the next several weeks.

Who cares about Michael Vick and spoiled rich who have the justice system in their favor. My concern is the Jena 6 who are being railroaded and have spend months or even a year in jail for a school yard fight. Jim Crow is not dead it just goes by another name James Crow Esq. We live in a society that does not care about the poor but will glitz up the rich when they are in trouble. They get slapped on the wrist and sent home. While there are other issues, such as racism that still exist to this day and I myself will not let Jena 6 be sweep under the rug like a piece of dirt. It is time to wake up and smell the coffee. This is 2007 and we are still fighting for Martin Luther King's dream. When are we going to wake up!! Free Jena 6 because this an injustice that I can not let go and neither should you!!! Please do not tell me that there is nothing for you to do protest, write, donate,support the Jena 6 anyway you can. The White House and Congress need to intervene in this matter. Let your voices be heard. Information is POWER!!!
