He won\'t be fined, he will serve time. Remember, these are federal charges and he is going against one of the roughest judges in the country. The chances of him getting out of this are very slim. You must also take in account that Vick himself, has been in and out of trouble for a few years now, this may just be the final straw.
Then again, who is surprised? One only had to look at his little brother, Marcus Vick, to see what kind of thug he is. If that didn\'t do it for you, then look at his flipping off the crowd numerous times.
With all that said, one can sum up the Falcon\'s season with this quote, taken from ESPN.
"The Atlanta Falcons hired Bobby Petrino because they thought he could turn Michael Vick into a complete quarterback. They signed Joey Harrington merely to serve as No. 7\'s backup."
The best thing for them to do now, is realize they have a lost season, look forward to the draft and let Petrino pick up the excellent Brian Brohm fro Louisville, KY. There is no way Harrington can lead this time, Vick most likely won\'t be back. Look to the future.
