"I told him, 'You represent us as a franchise, you represent yourself as a person and you represent the NFL. It's not one single thing, it's a series of things,"' Blank said.
"What (Goodell) will do about it, I'm not sure, but he's not going to take it lightly," Blank said. "He's got Michael on his radar and I think he made that clear to Michael as well."

He's put up with plenty of **** so far.
Now Roger is going to suspend him.

Until the courts bring him in and have a court date, Goodell can suspend him, but the players union would jump all over that since he hasn't been convicted or even indicted. He won't ne indicted unless there is some evidence that the police are keeping secret about.
If Vick goes to court and they find him guilty, then I would approve of a suspension. But until that happens, suspending him on a whim would cause a bad domino effect.

How bad would it look for him if he suspended him, then Vick isn't found guilty of anything? He was cleared of wrong doing with the water bottle incident, so Goodell couldn't use that on him. Right now the only thing Goodell has on him is the chance of dog fighting, nothing else. If he does suspend him without Vick being found guilty of anything, the players union will jump all over that. Pacman and Henry were suspended for several things and actually being convicted of things. People thing he is involved with it, but with it being such a high profile media case, it would be hard to get any evidence not out in public. I have a feeling that he won't be convicted of anything, and thus won't get a suspension. If he is, he would be suspended maybe 4 games at the most, with 2 being more likely. Not gonna give him such severe punishments like Henry and Jones, due to their acts and the number of them.

Has Pacman been found guilty of anything that happened in Vegas yet? No.
He was just there, followed by a history of run ins with law enforcement.
