Michael Vick making 12 cents an hour

Post #1 » by **HMFFL** » Sun Nov 16, 2008 2:57 am

Michael Vick lives in a prison in Kansas, making 12 cents an hour while plotting his return to the NFL. His houses and farms will soon be gone, the two yachts are history, and he’s down to his last couple of Range Rovers.

A race horse he bought for $60,000 died of colic, the Atlanta Falcons are still trying to hit him up for millions they paid him, and the IRS and the state of Georgia want nearly $1 million in back taxes.

In 2006 he made nearly $15 million. Recently he reported total income of $12.89 for an entire month.

That’s $12.89 as in 12 dollars and 89 cents. This from someone who, before things went terribly bad, categorized a $1,000 check to his mother as “chump change.”

What a condescending douche bag that writer is. We all know Michael Vick is a **** up, but you don't have to write a column piling **** on and on. Maybe he should do an article about Leonard Little still getting paid by the NFL after killing a person.

For some reason I doubt Lynch envies Vick's situation at all...

I agree..I am not by any shape or form a Mike Vick lover. But talk about stepping on a man when he is down.
Even though I have never been the biggest fan of his talents, hopefully he can sort his life out once he finishes his sentence

Why's he incarcerated in Kansas instead of Virginia?

From being set for life, to basically having absolutely zilch; that's very sad.

He'll still be living better than any of us when he gets out.

Are they not basically taking everything he owns; home, cars, etc?

Contrary to this reporter, I'm sure some team will sign and instantly become a millionaire again.

Regardless of what they take, he'll have a NFL contract soon after.
