that's the sticking point, vick wants no jail and is probably offering to pay a HUGE fine rather than sit in jail. as for the gambling, was that anywhere in the original charge? or is that part of the pending charges? at any rate, if goodell and the nfl find that vick gambled, he's thru.
and of course now the falcons owner came out saying he was shocked (SHOCKED!!) that vick lied. oh, the humanity.
thing is, if he isn't banned for life (as an aside, you think rose has a shot in hell now of ever getting in the hall of fame with these recent scandals?) who will take him? especially when you consider he was more style than substance as a QB.
