his cap hit has less to do with it, IMO, then the adoration of vick by the people of atlanta. if they would have released or traded vick before any of these charges came about it would have been a PR nightmare. the fans would have burnt down the georgia dome. 85% of the billboards in atlanta would have to be changed!
i think this gives the falcons orginization thier one chance to get out of the vick experiment. wether they cut or trade him or they lose him to prison. being the owner of a pitbull and having to deal with the stigma attached to it because of idiots like him, i hope its the latter.
