http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/9510436/Arena-team-offers-Vick-$200-per-week-contract?gt1=39002 ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Michael Vick has a place on a minor league football team if he can get reinstated by the NFL. The Albany Firebirds, an arenafootball2 franchise, have offered the 28-year-old quarterback a one-year contract at the league standard: $200 a week plus a $50 bonus for a win. Vick quarterbacked the Atlanta Falcons for six seasons before being convicted of bankrolling an interstate dog fighting business. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has not said if he will lift Vick's suspension after he completes a 23-month prison sentence. Vick goes from federal prison to home confinement next month. The Firebirds' contract offer requires that Vick donate $100,000 to a local humane society. A call to Vick's agent was not immediately returned. I live in Albany and the second I hear this, I was pissed at the fact that they would even CONSIDER this.
200/week lol. Is that before or after taxes? Might want to reconsider that construction job, can probably make 3x that there
It was never Vick's idea. It was put up by the team's PR department and promptly denied and shut down by the team's owner.
Tony Dungy went to the federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas to meet with Michael Vick...lost cause, Dungy.:lol: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-vick-dungy&prov=ap&type=lgns
