Interesting news story for late June anyway. Can't provide link because 1st gen iPhone fails. Vicks lawyer saying he wasn't present but the guy that got shot turned out to be one of the guys that rolled over on MV, and he got into a confrontation with MV inside the club. If Vick was even in the vicinity, will this be the last straw that gets him kicked out of the league?

A shooting took place outside the nightclub at which Michael Vick celebrated his birthday Friday morning.

Vick doesn't appear to have been involved in or present for the shooting, so this shouldn't be a big deal for him. The shooting victim suffered non-life threatening injuries after the incident, which occurred at 2AM Friday. The shooter was described as a "black man in a white Cadillac Escalade."

That a way to narrow it down AP.

Thanks for providing that. My phone sucks. So Vick celebrated his birthday, left before the club closed, and a guy that snitched him out to do federal time got shot? I bet there's more to the story than, "Vick wasn't present, no big deal". Just a hunch.

He pointed out the snitch and they waited til he left to do the job.....

Ding ding ding. The thing I read said that he got into a confrontation with Vick in the club. Vick was probably like, what are you doing here snitch? Vick left and guy gets shot. I'd be willing to bet a $3 McDonalds mini meal that the shooter knows Vick and this story blows up.

The dogfighting thing started as a little blurb in the news too...

So he invited the snitch to his party or coincidence?

Eh, I'm no Vick fan but let's wait until all of the details come out before we presume Vick was involved.

I don't know why you guys think it'd be uncommon for these sorts of people to get into other sorts of trouble. It's not like they lead completely pure lives, aside from all of that dog-fighting stuff that they just did every now and then to get away from the rat race.

It's not that simple.

He's legally not suppposed to be in the presence of Quannis Phillips (the shooting victim). The simple fact that he was there is going to draw the attention of the league, the team and the government.

Maybe he didn't know? Maybe that's why he left, and why someone else shot him (possibly even without Vick's order).

As I said, I'm no Vick fan at all. I just think we need to wait a bit until we assume Vick had something to do with this.

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
