Well, while the NFL jury is still out for sure, there's room for Michael in the GBRFL.  This "may have been" just "a bit" early, but, Vick apologist that I've been despite being a fantasy owner who had to suffer through it all (not, for the record, that I ever felt that he should have gotten off scot-free), I had to make certain that he have his opportunity to resurrect his (fantasy) career in the GBRFL with my team. I've been by and large on your side, Michael...  Now, I'm hoping you'll be playing for mine.
 
I DIGRESS...
    Heck, with the GBRFL season trading deadline today, I even brought back another one of my controversial favorites, Rasta Ricky.  Not expecting to get much out of him at this point in his career moving forward, but am hoping he hooks me up this week, going against St. Louis. Come on, Ricky!

Vick to be set free or at least let go, and we're not talking about free-agency here, a bit sooner than expected...  From "The REAL Feed":
 
Official: Vick could be home as soon as May 21
SI.com: NFL (26.02.2009 13:31)
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- A government official says imprisoned NFL star Michael Vick has been approved for release to home confinement.
 
So, I wonder if the talks about reinstating him can commence a bit earlier now...

Nice, pithy "bottom line" piece regarding Vick... from this LOCAL daily available on "The REAL Feed":
 
10 questions surrounding Vick's return to NFL
Falcons | ajc.com (26.03.2009 15:16)
Dana Point, Calif. - The Falcons continue to attempt to formally sever ties with imprisoned and suspended quarterback Michael Vick.
 
Actually, according to this piece, this latest financial debacle, noted in the post immediately above, should not affect Vick's reinstatement into the league.  Also, this article dispels the option of Vick's going and playing up in the Canadian Football League, but points out the possibility of his playing in the newly forming United Football League.

You that know me know that I love Mike, and want to see him come back to the NFL. I don't see him coming back this season though. I think that Goddell will suspend him like he did Pakman.  
Vick looks good for 2010, who knows maybe he will go to the Broncos.

Vick to work construction in the immediacy upon release...  From "The REAL Feed":
 
Lawyer: Ex-NFL star Vick will work construction
StarTribune: Sports (02.04.2009 15:16)
A lawyer for suspended NFL star Michael Vick told a bankruptcy court Thursday that the former Atlanta Falcons quarterback has lined up a construction job for when he gets out of prison.
 
I really like the overall tenor of the user comments...  They reflect my feelings about the situation with Vick, i.e. enough already; it's time we give this guy a break... and, though he is surely not worth 10 mil right out of the pen like he claims he is, not just relegate him to "wildcat" status.  Make no mistake...  This guy can still quarterback.  He may even be better after being away from the game for a couple seasons.

The way he plays the game I don't think he can play for another 10 years. I do think that he can play for another 7 though. He still has alot to prove on his passing skills. He other skills speak for themselves. No doubt though that some teams will be caling when he gets his chance to come back into the league. I can think od 6-7 teams that could use him, and would be willing to get him another shot.  
Who knows, maybe since the Skins missed out on Cutler...Vick could be on their radar.  
He will get another shot, but the money wont be what he hoped for.
