Vick, the next big thing in construction!
An attorney for Michael Vick, former Atlanta Falcons quarterback, stated yesterday that Michael Vick will take on a 10$ an hour job as a construction worker when he is released from prison. Vick appeared in Court for the first time since establishing bankruptcy to plea with the judge that he's a changed man. HE will be testifying before the court proceedings end on Friday. "You will hear from Mr. Vick his future intentions, how he's going to change the way he lives his life," said lawyer Michael Blumenthal to the Judge Frank J. Santoro. Vick has been serving a 23-month sentence for having a dog fighting ring, and his plan to work as a construction worker, is based on the future goal of again becoming a professional football player. Will this ever happen? I don't think so. There are too many animal activists, too many teams who don't want the stigma that comes with Vick's reputation, and lastly, no one wants to show support for a player whose been offensive in the past while on the Falcon's and off the team.

If he is able to reproduce his same level of play as before his jail time, there will be teams lining up to attract him. The NFL is about business first, scruples later.
ReplyDeleteThere have been far worse stigmas that have returned to the NFL. Animal activists have absolutely zero say in him actually playing in the NFL. They have everything to do with his endorsements and sponsors. Everybody takes a probation job. My only concern for him is that he can pass a urine test long enough to get a contract.
