May 21, 2009- Superstar Michael Vick returns home from a two year imprisonment sentence that has disgraced the former National Football league legend, and has left him with a sentence of house arrest for the next two months. For his role in an underground dog fighting ring, Vick has obtained a ten-dollar an hour construction job to prove the citizens of Atlanta that he has learned his lesson, with the intentions of someday returning back to the NFL.
Passing, running, and at particular times special teams, this versatile athlete was a part of the greatest of stars and was believed to be one of the best multi-talented player that has ever played in the National Football league. Also being one of the highest-paid athletes in the United States, dreams of supporting a new family, purchasing a home, and living in a high class environment, Vick has potential of fortune and fame. This fate changed after being sentenced in December of 2007 after pleading guilty to conspiracy to operate a dog fighting ring.
The Atlanta Falcons who still own the rights to Vick's contract have said that the return of this certain individual is impossible for this player, but has publicly stated offers and trades will be accepted with open hands. With many teams, that need a quarterback, on the horizon of the season that is shortly beginning the NFL is talking and voting on the decision of this superstar.
"Mike has already paid his dues," White said. "If he gets reinstated before the season, there'll be a couple of teams that will be after him and give him a chance to play." With support of organizations and players, rejoining the league isn't difficult but fighting with the public, and the Animal activists that are protesting in Atlanta with the admission of Vick back to the league has put a quick and feared stop on the decision of this record breaking player. Neither the NFL, nor the public will truly decide the fate of this man, but the actions that he decides to act on in the next couple of months.
