Former Virginia Tech quarterback Marcus Vick appears to have run afoul of the law again.

According to WAVY-TV in Hampton Roads, Va., Vick turned himself in to authorities Monday afternoon and is charged with three counts of brandishing a firearm Sunday night. Police say they received a call from the parent of a 17-year-old who said that Vick had pointed a gun at her son and two others during an altercation at a McDonald's parking lot in Suffolk, Va.

Police responded to the scene, interviewed witnesses, and issued three misdemeanor warrants.

Vick is being held on a $10,000 bond. If Vick is convicted, he could face up to a year in jail and a $2,500 fine.

Sounds like cross between Mike Tyson and Terrell Owens.

Is Atlanta looking for a backup QB? Brother Mike can look after Brother Marcus. Could Mike negotiate this?

"Unless he finds a way to clear this up before the draft teams will probably wait a year to see how it all plays out."

Nah, someone (Raiders, Jaguars, etc...) will take him with a high pick.

"Any GM that blows a draft pick on a guy that misses his rookie season in jail (especially when the possibility of this was known beforethe draft) will be facing a lot of questions from the owner."

The new browns-lite have done it! Jeremy Pharms. Look it up. A linebacker, never made it to training camp. Butch Davis survived for 2 more years after that one. The NFL has no conscience, no morals. (Actually, that's true of all pro sports).

FYI..Just breaking in the ESPN wire:

Marcus Vick, Maurice Clarett, and Michael Irvin today annouced that they were forming a NEW pro football league. Vick said that the problem with the old XFL was that it just didn't go "far enough..."

Call it the PSFL, Pinstripe Football League, in order to be eligible the player has to have a wrap sheet, LT will be the comish, all team colors will be orange and white, and teams will have criminal attorneys instead of capologists.

Will the Cap be a maximum number of convictions per team or minimum?

The cap will be measured in criminal fines paid by team members since the end of the previous season (the big bonus for playoff teams being their season ends later).

APRIL 5--Claiming that Michael Vick gave her herpes, a Georgia woman is suing the star NFL quarterback for negligence and battery. According to the below lawsuit, Sonya Elliot, a 26-year-old health care worker, was infected with the sexually transmitted disease in April 2003 after an unprotected encounter with Vick at the athlete's Duluth, Georgia home. Elliott alleges that after testing positive for Herpes Simplex 2, she confronted the Atlanta Falcons star, 24, about her condition.

"I've got something to tell you. I've got it," Vick admitted to her, according to Elliott's State Court complaint, which alleges that Vick then told her that "he had not known how to tell her about his condition, and that it was not something that he liked to talk about." ...

Elliot's lawsuit alleges that Vick has used the name "Ron Mexico" and, in a related court filing, her lawyers are seeking Vick's admission that he used the "Mexico" alias--and perhaps other fake names--"for the purpose of herpes testing and/or treatment." ... More.

This guy doesn't know when to quit. This will kill virtually any and all possible hype surrounding him, EVEN IF he rips off a great 40 time and throws the ball well at the combine.

A few days mean nothing. He would be treated very well over short periods of time. But put him behind bars for a couple years, and he'll learn what a tough life actually is.

Well, in his defense, Mr. Vick has yet to dump all over clamoring and begging teenage girls in order to satisfy his perverted sexual pleasure and degrade women, like the abdominally-active Mr. Kelly.

Pretty sure that was the deed that kicked R Kelly into libero-god status, and why the libs believe he can still fly. Takes an act like that (or a work of art like "P*ss Chr*st") to really earn spurs amongst our friends, the degenerate dems.

Surprised Porta-Potty hasn't engaged Mr. Kelly as a spokesman yet. Kelly and the Dave Matthews band would certainly be my choices. I could design an entire ad campaign around those two doo-doo darlings.

But I digress.

The latest on el hermano del Sr. Ron Mexico:

Former Virginia Tech quarterback Marcus Vick turned himself into the Suffolk Magistrate's Office in Suffolk, Va., this afternoon after three warrants were issued for his arrest for waving a firearm at three men in the parking lot of a McDonald's restaurant on Sunday night.

Vick, the younger brother of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick, was charged with three misdemeanor counts of brandishing a firearm. He was jailed at Western Tidewater Regional Jail around 2 p.m. today and was released on $10,000 bond, according to Magistrate Lisa Noel. Vick is scheduled to appear Jan. 12 in Suffolk General Court.
