    Vick gets 23 months

    The judge just handed down Vicks sentence. He gets 23 months and 3 years of probation. The judge said he believes that Vick was the mastermind and financial backer of the whole operation, without him the judge said it wouldn't have happened.

    He will get out in Oct of 09, does he have any football left after that?

    Well if he get's out in Oct of 09 he'd still have to get in massive football shape....2010 would be the first realistic time he would be totally in shape....He would be near 30.....realistically he could get back in shape and play 6-7 years....however Vick has always been better with his feet than his arm....I don't see his ability to run being the same.

    I hope he does try a comeback. I think it could be a good story.

    Well from a PR viewpoint...if he got out of prison, expressed remorse, joined an animal rights group, made a commercial, and then tried for a football comeback....he'd be a superstar again.

    Well, he'd have to try for a football comeback and actually play at a superstar level--which he's never really done as a pro.

    True but you know a book and movie deal will follow at some point.

    But would it be worth reading without any of his criminal activities being iincluded? Remember that you cannot profit from crime, after commiting a crime. That would prevent him from telling his story in regard to the whole doggie issue I'd think.

    True but someone else can do a movie and it would still up his "Q" levels.....esp if he turns this around and comes back from this situation and wins a SuperBowl! OK not likely to happen but hey what else can we all do but speculate.

    Isn't that only true while you're incarcerated? I don't know that much about it, but I can remember several biographies coming out after the person gets out of prison.

    I believe so, maybe all the proceeds will go to PETA if you can't profit.

    That's all we need, millions of dollars going to PETA.
