Deadspin

Just like the ESPN story that said he wasn't going to be indicted.

That some how came out the day before season ticket purchases were due.

Yippee ki yay, Mr. Falcon.

/Actual Die Hard 2 dub

He seemed to had won more times with the Dogs than with the Falcons over the years.

Pffft, that story was never bunked to begin with.

Someone at ESPN just received a sternly-worded memo.

a/k/a "Ookie". Right there on the cover page.

/double post

Later today, Len Pasquarelli will report that the Falcons have named Vick the starting QB for their season opener, and then put his hands over his ears and yell, "LA LA LA LA I'M NOT LISTENING!"

ESPN was wrong? 8/23/07, a date that will go down in history as the 23rd day of the eighth month in the year 2007.

@StupidAngelos: He will do all of this, of course, while eating a ham.

"ESPN was wrong?"

That's why they have six SportsCenters a night -- one of 'em's bound to have the right story.

But he didn't gamble.

So he was just doing it for the love of the game.

Wellll...

He didn't plea to the charges of dogfighting or gambling on dogfighting. He just recognized that the dogfighting that he admits to in the Statement of Facts can exacerbate the severity of the charge that he did plea to. But still, the WWL obviously got a little ahead of itself.

Bad Newz Kennels: Undefeated since 2002!

So he fronted the gambling money, but didn't take a cut of the winnings (when they won, as is documented in the filing)?

My ass. Goodell, here's your shot.

/repost, with clarifications

If the Falcons killed underperforming players like Bad Newz Kennels, would they have have had such an impresssive win-loss record?

(Sons of) Bitches done set him up!

@BoSox Siobhan: That is a matter of conjecture. What they would have, though, is a mass grave that would make Pol Pot proud.

Vick is about to find out that the guy named Big Boy in jail is going to have the same undefeated streak in penetrating Vick's ass

Fuck you in the face Ookie. Seriously, just fuck you.

On page 10 of the document, there are signatures from the U.S. attorney, the defense attorneys and Ookie himself. Vick's signature is a quickly scribbled letter M.

So Quanis was "Q"

@Brad Lee:
last "autograph" he ever signs?

@Timmay: John de Lancie would prefer it if you left him out of this.

If i were him, i'd ditch the plea, and say I killed the dogs before they could kill me ; therefore, was all in self-defense.

I just puked in my mouth reading that plea.

This day is a "Joe -say it isn't so" moment of our generation.

Will we tell stories about the most athletic Qb to ever play the game to our children?

I am wondering how did they every come up with such creative and literary names for each other and for those dogs? Q, T, Ooking, Funk?

Props to Rotoworld for calling out ESPN's bogus story that it plastered everywhere:

"ESPN.com did a terrible job getting this story so wrong over the last 24 hours."
