The guy was a marginal QB at best already, and now you're going to add 2-3 years of age and 2-3 years out of football to that. There's no question he's going to regress and it would probably be a year before he were back to the way he was before. Considering the distraction, and the PR nighmare, I don't think there are a lot of GMs out there who are going to go to their owners and say "Hey, this guy is what our franchise needs." You can't sell it to coaches or fans or team management. Not to mention the protectors showing up every week and everything else. He's thrown his last interception, IMO. |

Good for him.
If you're a multi-millionaire and you can't find a more interesting hobby than fighting dogs in your backyard, this is what happens. |

The CFL is to the NFL as a league, as the Raiders are to the rest of the NFL as a team.

Remember, Vick's is also facing state charges. Very few judges let individuals serve federal and state sentences at the state time. Therefore, assuming VA finds him guilty, as soon as he has completed his federal time, he will be transferred to state prison to serve his state sentence.
As far as playing football, the Fed sentence takes care of the 2008 & (part of) 2009 seasons, the state sentence will take care of the rest of 2009 & 2010. A league suspension takes care of 2011. How's your fantasy team in 2012 looking? Need a starting QB? |
