Michael Vick, of the Philadelphia Eagles, is probably more well known for his dog fighting incidents than his football. After being convicted of the charges, he was sentenced to 18 months in jail. Vick, who was with the Atlanta Falcons at the time, was offered a large bonus prior to his conviction, and the NFL was questioning whether or not Vick should be allowed to keep it.
After going to court, a judge ruled in Vick’s favor, and felt that he should be allowed to keep the bonuses because they were received before he was convicted of the dog fighting charges. The NFL did not agree with the ruling, and would like to get a different judge look at this case. However, the NFL is incorrect in this matter, and the ruling still stands, regardless of what the NFL thinks.
