If this was the NBA (where stars are promoted over teams) I would believe Vick could run for 150 and all would be well but this is the NFL (where teams are promoted over stars) and until the Falcons win with Vick at the helm he will remain covered with the stink from this.

Also, I'm not sure how good Vick is for revenue anymore. His star was fading before this incident and now its fading even faster.
