RICHMOND, Va. -- Suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick has been sentenced to 23 months in prison for his role in a dogfighting conspiracy.

Vick pleaded guilty in August, admitting he bankrolled the "Bad Newz Kennels" dogfighting operation and that he helped kill six to eight dogs.

Vick could have received up to five years behind bars.

Two of Vick's co-defendants received 18 months and 21 months, slightly more than prosecutors had recommended, according to the Associated Press

How long until Mr. Vick becomes Mrs. Vick in the slammer?

Good thing he's so mobile.

I hope he serves EVERY DAY of it, and gets a boyfriend named Bubba who thinks he has a cute butt!!

The real question is how long do you think it will take before he converts over to Islam.... like Tyson did. That seems to be the most popular thing for them to do.

what the heck? why would you assume that...and who exactly is "them"?

edit.. ill stay out..

This guy got what he deserves. Although I love animals, I'm certainly not some wacko radical. That said, for sheer stupidity alone, he shouldn't be allowed back in the NFL!

On another note, Vick will forever be the MOST OVERRATED football player I've ever seen in my entire life! This guy has gotten more publicity (even before he was executing "Benji") for doing nothing, than any QB in the history of the league! He was a great football player at Virginia Tech, but there are MANY college football players who simply don't have the skill set for the NFL, and he is the poster child for that! If he came into the NFL as a running back, I would feel completely differently. Because he chose to play QB...he simply doesn't belong on an NFL field! Vick certainly isn't the first overrated QB I've seen. Namath and Bradshaw were both very overrated, and Namath should have NEVER gotten into the hall of fame. That said, at least those guys won some games!

What do you mean by "them". I think that is a racist remark.

If I had posted that I would already have a shit load of PM's.

LMFAO!!!!!!

aside from his personal life the dude is a fantastic football player. I went to many Falcons games and when he would take off it was amazing to watch his speed and footwork. They changed the way they played him to further his career without as much injury...that restricted him to a certain extent. As far as winning games..they became a winning team with him....that team sucked before Vick and a few other additions. If by winning you mean it only counts if your wearing superbowl rings then you must think that Marino was overrated too.

Have you ever heard of any white athletes converting to Islam after being thrown in the clink for wrongdoings?

I never denied the guy was a great athlete. There is a HUGE different between being a great athlete and an NFL QB! I went out of my way to say that if he were an NFL running back, I would have a VERY different opinion about his skill set! As for winning games, I cannot argue with you that Vick has a winning record as a QB. His career record is 38-33. That said, I'm not impressed! The guy has played in 74 NFL games in his career. During that time, he has passed for 11,505 yards, which comes out to a whopping 155 yards a game. Also, in those 74 games, he has passed for 71 touchdowns! Nothing overly impressive about those numbers, and certainly nothing that warrants calling this guy "a fantastic football player"! Also, for what it's worth, Marino had thrown 196 touchdowns during his first 6 seasons in the NFL, as compared to Vick's 71!

To answer your question, I do not measure a QB's greatness by the number of super bowl rings he has. Terry Bradshaw has 4 super bowl rings, and I've already said he was VERY overrated, if you look at the guy's career numbers! Joe Namath is in the Hall of Fame for one reason and one reason only...his guarantee that the Jets were going to beat the Colts in the Super Bowl!

I'm old-school and simply trust what my eyes see! I can tell you that as much as I hate the Cowboys, Tony Romo is a FAR more skilled QB than Vick ever was! I would personally NEVER use the puppy killer's name in the same sentence with Dan Marino! Marino played 242 NFL games in his career and threw 420 touchdowns during those 242 games! Also, Marino averaged about 260 yards a game passing, over a very long 16 year career, so again, there is simply ZERO comparison! I'm okay with you or any other Vick fans thinking this guy was on his way to Canton. I'm just hear to tell you that the numbers say otherwise, and that as an NFL QB, he was a below average performer!

I just hope he isn't secretly still doing the dog biz. Even the Gottis ran the mob from the federal pen.
If he is as powerful as he seems to be in so many worlds I doubt he's actually stopped his wrongdoings.

If anyone thinks so where he's going.....He may then be in a little bit of a pinch. One thing for sure....if he wasn't a tight end before he when into the slammer, he sure as hell won't be one when he gets out.

Then he should meet Bubba real quick!

More of a wide receiver, really.

That would be wrong if it wasn't so damn funny, Rhi!!!

.IMO I thought he was a fantastic player, regardless of the numbers...they changed their playing style to a west coast offense, didn't they? I think he was amazing to watch in person. If you reread what I wrote...I was not comparing Vick to Marino..no way. I just dug Vicks skills...dont think he's up there with the greatest. I agree..no way he comes close to Marino.

You'll have that, Michelle. At least we're not talking racing or else I could've compared him to the catch-can-man.

Someone is going to make a playground out of Vicks ass!! I hope they are choking him while they do it,he might like it more!!

Think he will ever play in the NFL,let alone be able to run after he is out?

I know quite a few white Muslims actually, and people can convert to whatever they believe . Colour of your skin does not dictate a religion/philosphy/ ethos whatever you care to call it, that one could follow.
One of the girls I used to work with converted to Islam.
Anyway, Look at Sammy Davis Jr...he converted to Judaism
Colour is not an issue and should not be, and neither should religion not all Muslims are bad people Just as not all Christians, Bhuddists, or Jewish people are....

Regardless of that, Vick should serve a sentence, animal cruelty is a disgusting and repugnant act, and there are no excuses for such abhorrent behaviour,simple as.

Anyone that fights dogs deserves to have their flesh ripped off in small pieces.
Vick got off easy.

very true, his sentence seems incredibly light. Here if that happens you also stand to band from keeping animals too.
