Didnt c it, but I hope it's true. I <3 Michael Vick (pause). He was the most exciting player in the L, and also the most athletic man in all of sports.This guy is amazing. (nh) And he smokes trees? Beautiful.

Mhm...Commonwealth of Virginia doesnt play around, its a shame that this boy (a real man would serve his time) doesnt just take his punishment and deal with it. He isnt going to be back in the league, and he sure as hell isnt going to perform at a high level when he gets back.
A real man would serve his time? Get out of here with that mess. Jail is not the place to be and if you could cut your sentence you would. Ask any man injail they would do whatever they could to cut their sentence. I don't agree with what he did but I also know that if you or me did what he did we wouldhave gotten a fine and been on our way. I wish mike the best.

So you hope that hie sentence will be cut just because he was an exciting player? I agree. In fact, they should introduce the law in the U.S. where thelength of people's sentences for the crimes they commited will be determined by the level of excitement they bring when they play sports.

When I read that I thought he was just referring to the chance of seeing MV7 play again, not that he should be let off because he's who he is.Originally Posted by Xtapolapacetl

Anyway Mike, I wish you the best, and I hope you don't make the same mistake again once you eventually get out.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick could be getting out of federal prison much earlier than anticipated after applying for a prison-monitored drug rehabilitation program and evidently beingmoved into the program in Leavenworth, Kan.
The program could have Vick out of prison by the end of this year and perhaps back in the NFL by the 2009 season.
A source confirmed to Yahoo! Sports on Friday that Vick has applied to the program, which is run only at the federal facility at Leavenworth. An official withthe Federal Bureau of Prisons said Friday that Vick was being transported to Leavenworth.
Under the program, Vick could be released after serving only 12 months of the 23-month sentence Vick was given Dec. 10 inRichmond, Va. It's unclear exactly when Vick would be released because it's unclear whether the 12-month term starts from when he voluntarily beganserving his prison term in November or whether it starts from when he enters Leavenworth.
Part of the reason Vick was given a 23-month sentence was that he failed a drug test for marijuana after pleading guilty tocharges relating to dog fighting. Vick is expected to be held in a minimum security wing of the prison at Leavenworth. According to a federal source, Vick iscurrently in transit to a minimum security satellite prison that is under the jurisdiction of the Leavenworth facility.
Although it's unknown what the standards are for entrance to the drug rehabilitation program, two sources confirmed thatVick was eligible for it. An official at Leavenworth told Yahoo! Sports that Vick would have to spend a minimum of one month at the prison before qualifyingfor the program.
Calls and emails to Vick's attorney, Billy Martin, were not immediately returned Friday, and Assistant U.S. AttorneyMichael Gill refused to comment on Vick's application.
"I can't confirm or deny anything on it," Gill said.
As it stands, Vick's 23-month prison term could translate to a release in the summer of 2009, putting his attempts at areturn to the NFL for that season in jeopardy. But if Vick were to be released in late 2008 or early 2009, his opportunity to return to the league aftermissing only two seasons would be boosted significantly. Members of Vick's camp continue to hope that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell will decline to tackon a lengthy suspension following Vick's release from prison.
Humane Society investigator John Goodwin expressed moderate dismay at the news Vick might get out earlier.
"At the time that he was sentenced, I and a lot of other people who watched this case felt Vick received a fairsentence," Goodwin said. "If this really happens, that he's able to get out in what's basically half the time, I think there's going tobe a lot of outrage about the whole situation.
"It's just another example of big money allowing someone to get away with something the rest of societycouldn't."
