Vick Takes Plea Agreement

Michael Vick has agreed to plead guilty to the federal dogfighting charges against him under a deal reached today between his attorneys and prosecutors, his lawyer said.

Vick's D.C.-based attorney, William R. (Billy) Martin, made the announcement in a written statement released by his office this afternoon. Martin said that Vick accepted full responsibility for his actions and decided over the weekend to accept the plea deal.

Vick and his attorneys are scheduled to appear in federal court in Richmond next Monday, according to the statement.

The terms of the plea deal were not immediately clear, but previous reports indicated that the two sides were discussing an arrangement by which Vick would spend about a year in jail.

The deal still must be approved by the judge in the case and could collapse at any point until then.

Vick's three co-defendants in the case previously agreed to plead guilty and cooperate with the prosecution.

Vick was charged with helping to operate a dogfighting ring based at a property owned by him in southeastern Virginia. He'd been scheduled to go on trial Nov. 26.

NFL discipline against Vick remains pending. Last month, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell ordered Vick not to report to the Falcons' training camp and announced that Vick's playing status would be determined by a review being conducted by Washington attorney Eric Holder.

The federal indictment of Vick portrayed him as an active member of the dogfighting operation who attended and even traveled to dogfights, paid bets for losing fights and participated in the killing of dogs that didn't perform well.

More Holcomb Trade Rumors

Falcons Could look to add veteran quarterback
ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reports the Atlanta Falcons may look to acquire a veteran quarterback. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported the team had inquired about the availability of Philadelphia Eagles backup QB Kelly Holcomb.

Michael Vick is going to prison, Joey Harrington looked terrible in the pre-season, and DJ Shockley is out for the season, with an ACL tear. It looks like this rumor could actually have some legs to it. I'm willing to bet Holcomb plays a lot against Pittsburgh, and that could be his last action as an Eagle if he does well.

Get Your Vick Chew Toy

As the Michael Vick dog fighting scandal continues to unfold we find ourselves trying to figure out why a multi-million dollar NFL superstar would put himself in this type of position. That question can not be answered as of yet and may or may not ever be answered. After authorities raided a house owned by Vick on April 25 and found 66 dogs and a pit usually used in dog fights, Vick has finally been indicted by a Federal Grand Jury and will face trial soon.

While most of us have turned a blind eye to this underground world of dogfighting, Michael Vick has helped to blow the doors wide open on this problem. There are now more people responding to the horrible situation that many of these animals have been subjected to.

Now a new type of retribution has been created to give every dog a little pay-back. The Vick Dog Chew Toy will be available for delivery on August 7th and will hopefully help open the eyes of many others. This has been created to help the Local Shelters shed some light on this horrendous sport of dogfighting. Each person now has the opportunity to buy a dog chew toy that will help other animals live a better life than those poor dogs that were found on April 25th.

The most rewarding part of The Vick Dog Chew Toy is that a portion of the proceeds are being donated to the a local animal shelter to help spread awareness of this terrible phenomenon.

This gave me a good laugh, so I thought I would share it with you. We all know I am a huge Michael Vick fan.

Around the NFL

• Darwin Walker update: Bills make final offer.


• As if his knee injuries, and the widespread staph infection outbreaks were not enough for LeCharles Bentley to deal with in Cleveland, now he has a waterfall of crap in the locker room. Poor LeCharles.


• Michael Strahan is AWOL at Giants camp. Is he planning to hang it up?


• Mike Vick gets sacked again. Reebok pulls his jersey off the shelves.


• Simeon Rice is pretty pissed about being cut. He might be near the end, but I know Tra Thomas is sick of trying to block him.


• The bizarre tale of Corey Simon continues. Now he is cleared to play, and reporting to Colts camp. What a strange situation.


• The Rams gave Marc Bulger a $65 million contract extension. He is a very underrated player, and now a very rich man.


• The Carolina Panthers have suspended ex-Eagle offensive tackle Jeremy Bridges, after being arrested for assault.


• Curtis Martin retired. He had a great, most likely Hall of Fame career.


• Pacman told to stay home. Odell Thurman denied reinstatement. I love that commissioner Roger Goodell is cleaning up the league. With penalties this severe, players better be on their best behavior at all times.

Vick 'Loves Dogs'

A real Dog lover

Really!?!

Dogs in the Kennel

NFL=Not For Long

It was just a few short years ago that the top dogs as far as the QB position in the NFC were Donovan McNabb, Mike Vick, & Daunte Culpepper. As late as 2004 it looked like those 3 would be battling it out for the every NFC title for the next 5 years.

Since then, McNabb has had two season ending injuries and hasn't gotten back to the postseason himself. That said, he's well off compared to the other 2.
