Michael Vick is a free man, with no job
Fresh off his 18 month prison sentence and a 2 month house arrest stint stemming from his involvement in a dog fighting operation. Although the former dog killer has been relased he may not make a quick return to the NFL. Vick, a quarterback, is not eligible to restart his football career until he is reinstated by N.F.L. Commissioner Roger Goodell. Goodell who has previously mentioned that he would not consider re-instating Vick into the NFL until after he had completed his full sentence,but no word has been given as to if he’s begun pondering this issue. The fact that training camp starts in about a week for most teams doesn’t really help his situation much, but it’s not like he was playing before he went to prison. Michael has been out of the NFL for nearly 2 years and while in jail and under home confinement he hadnt had much o an opportunity to train.
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that I doubt Vick will be playing this season in the NFL. He has been offered a chance to become a member of the United Football League, but the caces of him actually taking that job are slim to none, unless his reported pending bankruptcy is true and not just fodder. Maybe Vick shouldnt have been killing dogs and shit and I wouldnt be writing about this, he’d still be playing football, and the world would be a little bit happier…..but we live in reality so Vick we’re glad you’ve done your time, now its time to get your act together and fly straight otherwise your next job might be catching fucking dogs rather than penning them against each other to fight.
