Atlanta quarterback Vick's water bottle raises suspicion at Miami airport

Michael Vick reluctantly surrendered a water bottle to security at Miami International Airport that contained a residue "closely associated with marijuana," police said Wednesday.

The Atlanta Falcons' quarterback entered a concourse Wednesday morning at the airport with the 20-ounce bottle. He eventually handed it over and boarded his flight to Atlanta. But his initial reluctance to turn over the bottle aroused suspicion among airport security screeners, a police report said.

The bottle was found to have a hidden compartment that contained "a small amount of dark particulate and a pungent aroma closely associated with marijuana," the report said. The compartment was hidden by the bottle's label so that it appeared to be a full bottle of water when held upright, police said.

No charges have been filed, but police said the bottle would be sent to a lab for analysis.

Vick did not immediately return a phone call early Thursday.

"We plan to look into the matter and discuss it with Michael Vick before having any further comment," Falcons spokesman Reggie Roberts said.

I keep wondering what it will take to get rid of ol Ron Mexico from the ATL. We have a new coach, why not a fresh start and let Shaub take the helm?

Schaub sucks.

Vick has always been fond of the weed. It runs in the family.

I don't know about that. He seems at least trainable whereas Vick is just too cocky for his own good. Yes he is fast, but his throwing ability is way overblown. I was at the game where he got injured and he is just not the same guy. That and giving the fans the bird. Can't hide class. But, hey if Schaub does stink get someone else.

I hear Marcus Vick is available

Vick can be great if you let him be Vick. For some reason, they wanted him to be Joe Montana. They need to let Vick run all he wants and get a good 2nd string guy. Vick is the best on-the-run QB of all time.

Which is why if we keep him he should be a receiver or co-quarterback. Can you imagine a formation with Schaub and Vick in sort of an I where you did not know who the snap would go to or who would run/throw? You would tie up loads of defensive backs covering the possibilities.
