August 20, 200719 yr Two people were posting this at the same time, maybe a mod could combine the two threads. Thank You
August 20, 200719 yr Author I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see Vick in the NFL for at least 3 years...his career could be over.
August 20, 200719 yr Here's more: Vick Plea What will the NFL do know, I wonder? I believe the term is persona non grata...
August 20, 200719 yr I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see Vick in the NFL for at least 3 years...his career could be over. That's what I was thinking, although I could also see a suspension for this season and the next in case he gets released early. A Michael Vick who has turned over a new leaf could be good publicity for the NFl.
August 20, 200719 yr I believe the term is persona non grata... Yea. He's sorry, says the statement. But, Vick has a few million reasons why to be sorry. Be interesting to see if the gambling charges are there or not. I haven't seen a list with gambling on it.
August 20, 200719 yr Author That's what I was thinking, although I could also see a suspension for this season and the next in case he gets released early. A Michael Vick who has turned over a new leaf could be good publicity for the NFl. I doubt they will want to run his suspension concurrent with his jail time. They might suspend him for his time in prison, + one year after he gets out. Who knows though...at this point anything could happen.
August 20, 200719 yr I'll be anxious to see what Roger Goodell does from the NFL standpoint. you and me both
