Michael Vick is Poor...
according to Jay Harris on SportsCenter.
The Special Master (which sounds kind of S/M-ish to me) has apparent ruled that Mike Vick will have to repay $19.9 MILLION in bonus money. That's a lot.

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
I think he will find a way to survive with the other 16 million in guaranteed money.

And dog food? Remember too that, while roster bonuses are guaranteed, his indefinite suspension should leave him exempted from the roster, not on it.

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
Do you actually believe hes poor, you probably dont realize how much money he made in endorsements, Im sure Nike and whoever else paid him a fortune. Sure to me and you that $19.9 mil. is alot to Mike Vick its nothing, more than likely he will just declare bankruptcy or something like that to get out of all this trouble, the kid is loaded, never will work another day in his life whether he plays again or not.

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
The appeal process is coming. But I hope he has to pay every penny back!

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
my understanding on why he has to give back some of the money is that he was engaged in conduct (dogfighting), which would breach the terms of his contract, at the time he signed it . . . if he signed the contract then began dogfighting afterwards he would have been in a better position
just like why goddell is/will hit him hard . . it wasnt the act of dogfighting alone but the fact that he lied about it to goddell afterwards saying he had no knowledge or involvement which clearly goes against the rules set by the NFL and the NFLPA |

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
I think Nike paid him 20mil to get out of his contract. Not sure if he is poor or not but he is building around a 9,000 sq foot home here in suffolk for his girl friend which is right on the water making that house worth a few pennies. He also still owns a 5,000 to 6,000 sq foot home here were his mother lives.

Re: Michael Vick is Poor...
No man is poor who has friends, and I'm sure all Mike's boys will stick right by him.
