Vick sentenced to 23 months in prison for his role in a dogfighting conspiracy
The verdict was just announced, no official links yet, but that is the ruling. So roughly April of '09 he'll be out? .. Ouch.

Who is this person and what did he do?

[D3V]

He was the 'former' Atlanta Falcons QB.

It'll probably get cut in half for 'good behavior.' Celebrities and high-profile people are definitely catered to in jail.

That's true.

Well, federal prison to start off only requires you to attend 85% of it, I BELIEVE...

I'm sure he'll become a 'hero' in prison, everyone's buddy. He'll get out, go be a 3rd stringer on some lower-grade team (Miami/Oakland..etc) and move into 2nd string, get a break and be starting once again, I mean he's only like 27? or so?..

[Thanatos]

Yeah, he'll be back in the NFL someday.

Yeah, he'll be back in the NFL someday.

It'll be sooner than anyone expect, that's for sure. He'll be in a nice lil spot and won't even know he's in jail... till he remembers he can't leave.

Just an update on this story:

Apparently Vick has been playing football in prison to "keep his arm loose".. Just thought I'd throw this in here.

[alex132005]

hes not popular anymore, lets hope he has fun dogfighting in prison for the next 23 months, hes gonna get his ass kicked.

[Coffeedagger]

I dunno I also think he will get out early and be fine for the rest of his life. Makes me sick when celebrities and the like get rules bent and mangled for them.

[-Spector-]

Not sure how much of an ass kicking he'll get... to be in the NFL I'm sure you have to have quite a bit of muscle mass.

[Tyrannicide]

Yea but hes only a QB, compare most QB's with other positions and then guys that are spebding multiple years+ in prison. There are going to be plenty of guys that are way bigger then he is.

Just another thing, if people don't like him, a shank doesn't give a shit how big you are. Just thought I'd throw that in.

[-Spector-]

The shank thing yeah.... good thinkin.

This is only because everyone loves them so much. No other reason.

I dunno I also think he will get out early and be fine for the rest of his life. Makes me sick when celebrities and the like get rules bent and mangled for them. why the hell sh0uld he be realased earlier? he aint big n p0pular anym0re. so he shoulda got 23 years instead of months

Fucking retarded piece of shit ruins his football career, making millions and he also filed for bankrupsy. If he died I`d laugh.

[D3V]

I was watching SportsCenter last night and apparently Vick is supposed to plea guilty now to speed up his sentencing and get his jailtime reduced somehow...
