Vick
I'll add some links to this later (I haven't had a chance to read through all of the takes on Vick's indictment). Quickly though... It doesn't surprise me. Michael Vick has a pattern of poor decision making (as does his brother), there were rumblings that he's been a major player in dog fighting, and he owned the house! I'm glad to see the commissioner is waiting on a suspension (this isn't like Pacman Jones, where multiple prior run-ins with the law can be used to interpolate where a current run-in is leading), but I'm sure it's inevitable. The question becomes when. Purely on the football side, the Falcons would probably prefer to have Vick for at least the season so that they can have a chance at picking up a new quarterback next off season. I have no tie-ins with the Atlanta fan base, so I have no idea how supportive (or willing to ignore) Falcon fans will be, but the road fans will be vicious - just look at how Barry Bonds gets treated.
