Michael Vick's Mansion Comes Furnished

Man, Tough Break For That Vick Guy
Yes, yes, we know that Ron Mexico tortured and electrocuted puppies, we know that he's probably not the best person and we know he's gonna spend some serious time in prison. He pretty much deserves whatever's coming to him. But ... we dunno .... is it really fair that the Falcons can now recoup $19....
Ookie Is No Dummy
Ladies and gentlepeople, we have finally figured out what we will do if we are ever convicted of a felony, other than "try to grow a mustache and move to Turks and Caicos." We're gonna make sure we smoke as much weed as possible, and then get caught....

ESPN's Disastrous "Town Hall Meeting"
We didn't watch ESPN's timely Michael Vick Town Hall Meeting last night, but from just about every account, it was a total disaster. The audience was so partisan for Vick — which, to be fair, is the opposite of what you typically see — that anyone who so much as pointed out that Vick confessed to el...
PIck Through The Remnants Of Michael Strahan's Life
We have stayed up many late nights, hoping, praying, that somehow, Giants defensive lineman Tooth McTootherson and his wife /ex-wife / wife Jean Strahan could figure out a way to solve their marriage.

Notes On A Scandal
Time to officially remove the mallet from its handsome leather case, striking the silver gong and calling bullshit on this ... but it could be true, I guess. Some dude is claiming that he has Michael Vick's crib notes from his recent apology, and is selling them on eBay. Bidding is up to $2,000, so ...
Just How Into God Is Michael Vick?
Plenty of discussion yesterday on Michael Vick's apology following his guilty plea for that whole dogfighting business. Frankly, we were a little taken aback by Vick's press conference; as SI.com put it, it was "among the most apologetic remarks ever heard by a professional athlete." We had been exp...
Vick Officially Pleads Guilty ... But We're Just Starting
Well, it's now official, as if we didn't know it already and somehow needed hours of coverage all morning (including Bob Ley saying it's "the biggest story, sports or otherwise, in the country right now" on the day the attorney general of the United States resigned): Michael Vick has officially plea...
Goodell Definitely Suspends Vick Indefinitely
Back in Catholic high school, when our dress code was a shirt and tie, one day a student came to class in proper dress code. When the teacher stepped out for a second, he tore off his collared shirt and khaki pants to reveal his underlying outfit: a waterskiing wetsuit. He didn't get in trouble for ...
Deadspin HOF Nominee: Michael Vick
Long before this whole dogfighting business, Michael Vick / Ron Mexico / Ookie was a popular guy around these parts. It is amazing to us, even to this day, how few people know about the Ron Mexico story. Now, ironically, this whole "electrocuting puppies" business may assure even fewer find out abou...
