Your Friday Michael Vick Dog Fighting Update

Bad Behavior

Dog fighting is still reprehensible. Pretty much everyone is in agreement on that.

Sources close to Vick continue to put him with more than just passing knowledge of a dog fighting ring and activity associated therewith.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank has just given Vick a “stern” talking to. Quoth the Blank:

“I told him, ‘You represent us as a franchise, you represent yourself as a person and you represent the NFL. It’s not one single thing, it’s a series of things, I’m not saying he’s been directly involved, but in some cases he has been, and in some cases it’s been the people around him. You’re responsible for who you’re with. You need to make some difficult choices and you need to make them now. I think you’re at a critical point in your life.”

Wow. Everything’s fixed now. Nice job, Arthur Blank! (But why the need to be stern? I thought Vick had that awesome track record of honesty with Bobby Petrino?)

I am starting to think that there will be a suspension of some fairly significant length headed Vick’s way. Which would make Matt Schaub’s presence in Houston rather painful all of a sudden.
