Michael Vick's an Eagle

But as far as paying for it, how will that work given Vick's debacle of a financial situation? No chance he's gonna pick a 1,000-sq ft. condo for $1,500 a month.

How the hell is Vick paying for anything these days?

 

He'll find a good place to live. In fact, I think AI still has his place so he may let Vick use it. As for cash, that's what agents and friends are for. They're not going to let him go hungry.

 

Do you know exactly where Iverson lived/lives in Philly? I love looking shit up on google maps.

 

He lived in Gladwynne off Waverly Drive.

 

I imagine Vick will get a lot of charity on the grounds that, if he turns things around, he can easily be back in the 5-6 million per year salary range.

And you've got to figure that even with all the debt he probably has, it shouldn't take him more than two or three years to pay it off if he stays on the right track. Most of us on this board wish we could be so lucky.

 

Yeah in a lot of ways, he is very lucky.

 

This comes under the category of WTF and who cares?

The animals are striking back!

The game-picking camel is boycotting Eagles games and a group is donating dog food every time Vick is tackled.

Five pounds?

Cheapskates.

 

Isn't this what one would call a bounty?

 

You can't put a bounty on a man's head!!!

 

Who would buy a Michael Vick jersey? Apparently a lot of people. Second in sales only to the WARRRIOR.

Good story. I'm not sure that I agree with the source who says the Vick sales result from the enthusiasm of the Eagles fan base. I've got to believe it's more of a national phenomenon than a Philadelphia phenomenon.
