4. Dodgeblogium – Blog Archive – Vick´s found Gawd!  - : vicks_found_gawd

This is actually a combination rounding up the last 2 weeks of blog articles on the Michael Vick Saga.  There are some very good articles especially in the section on the racial aspect of this campaign, in the corporate section and if you need a break some good stuff in the satyre and video sections too.

Who knows the saga might even end today if Vick accepts a plea deal as pressure from the feds increases significantly.  They are holding gambling and racketeering charges over Vick’s head as would be expected where illegal gambling is concerned.  The thing is there are two big aspects about these charges that makes the decision very important for Vick:

1. He could be looking at a lot more jail time (decades instead of months)
2. If convicted of gambling, he’s out of the NFL for the rest of his life.
