Vick's co-defendent shot @ Vick's Bday party

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.

    • Yep, like I said, I don't mind guaranteeing them money, but make the contracts smaller amounts in order to minimize cap implications. I don't know about "half," the actual amounts, whether more or less than half, would have to be determined by the NFL and NFLPA (which will probably be highly contentious, if not "impossible").  I'm just for whatever leads to the best product on the field while also unaffecting my wallet. As an aside, the NFL owners are greedy bastards in my estimation. They're trying to keep a larger portion of the pie, but players' agents are greedy as well, and they've sewn seeds of greed among the players. It's not all their fault; we all know what our society has evolved into, but the NFL wants a bigger piece of our smaller pocketbooks and refuses to "negotiate" with us (that's why we don't have cheaper and more reasonable à la carte options to view games that they're gradually trying to migrate to paid TV), so fu<k 'em. And then on top of that we have guys trying to water down the product even more by feeding greed. Change the way things are done so that we can at least see players prove themselves on the field without throwing wrenches into the engine that pays guys that have proven they can play on a pro level.
