Well, since he's going pro, I guess this would fit best here:
RICHMOND, Va. -- Former Virginia Tech quarterback Marcus Vick, booted from the team last week for his behavior on and off the field, was charged Monday with pulling a gun on three teenagers during an altercation in a restaurant parking lot.
Vick surrendered at the Suffolk magistrate's office after three warrants were issued for his arrest Sunday, Magistrate Lisa Noel said.
The 21-year-old Vick was charged with three misdemeanor counts of brandishing a firearm, and was released on $10,000 bond.
Police said the parents of a 17-year-old boy reported that Vick pointed a weapon at their son and two others during an altercation at a McDonald's in Suffolk, a southeastern Virginia city where Vick's mother lives, Sunday night.
If convicted of all three counts, Vick could be sentenced to up to three years in jail and a $7,500 fine, police spokeswoman Lt. Debbie George said in a statement.
On Friday, Virginia Tech kicked Vick off the team, citing the cumulative effects of numerous legal problems and his unsportsmanlike conduct in the Gator Bowl, where he was caught on tape stomping on the left calf of Louisville All-American Elvis Dumervil.
He also received a speeding ticket and a ticket for driving on a suspended license in Hampton on Dec. 17 while under a "zero tolerance" policy from Virginia Tech.
The policy was implemented when Vick was suspended in 2004 because of several legal problems. He later came under further scrutiny because of replays of his actions against Dumervil.
Vick claimed it was accidental, but hurt his cause by claiming to have apologized to Dumervil, the NCAA sacks leader. Dumervil said he received no such apology.
Saturday, Vick announced he had decided to turn pro.
A Virginia Tech spokesman said university officials would have no comment on Vick's arrest.
"At this point, I think the actions speak for themselves," the spokesman, Larry Hincker, said.
Vick is the younger brother of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick. He was the runner-up to Wake Forest's Chris Barclay, by one vote, as the Atlantic Coast Conference's offensive player of the year, and was the league's first-team quarterback.
In 24 career games, the 6-foot, 212-pound Vick threw for 2,868 yards, 19 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. He also ran 184 times for 492 yards and six TDs.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Marcus Vick: about 120 yards passing and 30 yards running per game, and just over one TD/game.In 24 career games, the 6-foot, 212-pound Vick threw for 2,868 yards, 19 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. He also ran 184 times for 492 yards and six TDs.
Sounds just like his big brother. Only less so.
With all this on his rap sheet, he has sunk from maybe being a 3rd rounder, to 5th, to "nearly undraftable." All in the course of a month. Nice work, kid.

Not sure if it will. A torn ACL/MCL may require a year to fully recover from. And because Palmer doesn't run doesn't mean it isn't an issue. You have to be able to plant your leg and step into the throw to get accurate passes.Originally posted by Donegeal

Rice came back in 3 months... and then fractured his patella because the tendons had not fully healed.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

DeShaun Foster missed practice today... He is questionable for the game against the Bears.
I guess he's getting injections in his toe or foot for pain... he had them last week... apparantly this is a nagging injury that is getting worse.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment
