OT: The Flip Side: Vick Apologizes - Pleads Guilty

Since I have been on his ass, I guess fair play dictates that I post this:

"First I want to apologize for all the things that I've done and that I have allowed to happen," Vick said at a news conference following his appearance in U.S. District Court.

"I made a mistake in using bad judgment and making bad decisions," he said. "Dog fighting is a terrible thing."

"I offer my deepest apologies to everyone. And i will redeem myself. I have to.

Vick also said he was sorry "to all the young kids out there for my immature acts. What I did was very immature so that means I need to grow up," he said.

The plea by the suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback was accepted by U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson, who asked: "Are you entering the plea of guilty to a conspiracy charge because you are in fact guilty?"

Vick replied, "Yes, sir."

New article at http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7159406?MSNHPHMA says that:

In Atlanta, the Falcons said they would not cut Vick immediately because of salary-cap issues. The team intends to pursue the $22 million in bonus money that he already received in a $130 million contract signed in 2004

Lawyer talk, that's all it is.

If he was truly sorry, he would have apologized a while ago.

If he wasn't found out, he would still be involved in that mess.

Seems like they all find Jesus when they get in deep shit. If he had been looking for Him all along, he wouldn't be in this predicament.

I have to agree with all of you.

Sad.
