Write the Eulogy: Vick Guilty Suspended Indefinitely

Since July 17, Michael Vick has lived his obituary’s opening line. Someday, said line will read: Michael Vick, who spurned football for dog fighting, died today.

On Friday afternoon, Vick negotiated his guilt. On Friday evening, he was suspended indefinitely. Officially, Vick will plead to procuring and training pit bulls for fighting and conducting the enterprise across state lines. He will acknowledge bankrolling the operation, receiving profits, and observing canine slaughter.

According to Attorney Billy Martin, codefendants Purnell Peace, Quanis Phillips, and Tony Taylor were guiltier than Vick. “Our position has been that we are going to try to help Judge Hudson understand all the facts and Michael's role,” Martin said. “Michael's role was different than others associated with this incident.”

During his career, Vick completed 930 of 1,730 passes for 11,505 yards with 71 touchdowns and 52 interceptions. He also logged 523 carries for 3,859 yards and 21 touchdowns. Pathetically, Vick incinerated his career. Amidst the ashes, fans and the Atlanta Falcons.
