Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Click link for entire article: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/07/23/did-vick-make-it-rain-on-his-first-day-as-a-free-man/ Did Vick make it rain on his first day as a free man? Posted by Mike Florio on July 23, 2009 12:45 PM ET At key strategic moments during last night's Green Day concert (i.e., when they played songs with which I'm not familiar), I'd check the PFT e-mail via my Sprint device. One message that caught my attention came from Jason McIntyre, proprietor of The Big Lead. Per McIntyre, who cites multiple unnamed sources, quarterback Mike Vick spent his first night out of federal custody at a Virginia Beach strip club with NBA star Allen Iverson. We didn't know what to make of it at first. Would Vick truly be that stupid? Apart from the fact that he needs to be extremely careful about what he does prior to his meeting with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who has grown all too familiar with players who "likeded the scrip clubs," the terms of Vick's three-year probation undoubtedly prevent him from drinking alcohol -- and potentially forbid him from even visiting an establishment that serves it. Thus, we admit that we were inclined to pull an ESPN, and ignore it. But with papers like the Atlanta Journal-Constitution mentioning it and a flood of readers sending e-mails about it, we had to explore this one. So we dusted off our own "real journalist" disguise (it's actually one of those Halloween masks with the thin elastic band in the back that always breaks), and we've learned that Vick strongly denies attending a strip club on Monday night -- and that others around him corroborate that fact. -------------------------------- Personally, I'd hope the Vick is smarter than this, and realizes that even though going to a strip club doesn't make you evil, it doesn't help his public perception. I guess we'll find out in due time whether or not Vick was partying it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhouse Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 the terms of Vick's three-year probation undoubtedly prevent him from drinking alcohol -- and potentially forbid him from even visiting an establishment that serves it. Really! That sucks! But hopefully he was able to fight off the urge atleast until he gets his life/career straightened out. He life is going to be closely followed by the media, he needs to be smarter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideshow24 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 That could be costly. Teams on the fence about giving him a chance might hop right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEREALTOR1 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/11979120 Lawyer denies Vick spent first free night at Va. Beach strip club July 23, 2009 CBSSports.com wire reports RICHMOND, Va. -- A lawyer for Michael Vick says the quarterback did not spend his first night of freedom at a Virginia Beach strip club. Attorney Larry Woodward says Thursday that Vick was not in Virginia Beach on Monday night and has not been to any strip club. • Vick meets with new NFLPA boss Woodward says reports of such activity are "absolutely, categorically false." Vick was released from federal custody Monday after a 23-month sentence for a dogfighting conspiracy. The blog thebiglead.com quoted a DJ, who refused to be identified, who said Vick was at the strip club with NBA free agent Allen Iverson. Leon Rose, Iverson's agent, said Iverson hasn't seen Vick since his release. Vick is expected to meet soon with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in hopes of getting his league suspension lifted.

dockeryfan Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Vick allegedly going to a strip club vs Roflburger allegedly raping a Lake Tahoe hostess So Vick is the bigger story? What a joke. Shame on you ESPN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 IF this is true (dj doubtful) then Vick is going to be Working for Tips and Tips alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnhay Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Why can't Vick be around alcohol? Did I miss an alcohol-related charge that he was found guilty of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Why can't Vick be around alcohol? Did I miss an alcohol-related charge that he was found guilty of? I don't remember hearing about that either. If that was part of it then I can see the conern. If not, I understand him going there. The dude was locked up in prision for 2 years. Let him enjoy a night at a strip club lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbleedBnG83 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 He has never had problems with strip clubs like Pacman. This should have no affect on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fullnelson9999 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Unless he ran a part of his dog fighting ring in a strip club alley, then whats the big deal if he wants to see some boobies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with papers like the Atlanta Journal-Constitution mentioning it and a flood of readers sending e-mails about it, we had to explore this one. Right...like someone had to twist Florio's arm to get him to investigate a rumor. ESPN ignores rumors spewing forth from attention whores citing multiple unnamed sources for a reason: credibility. Something PFT may have heard of once but certainly doesn't practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4thHanson Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 this is dumb move by Vick if true, he has probably had a bunch of strippers or just hoes at his house since he got home, no need to go out so you can show off your cash by throwing 1's at a bunch of strippers, he can do that crap at home. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishisthegreatstuff Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 wtf can't he go to a strip club??? As long as he isn't breaking any laws the guy should be able to do w/e he wants. This is crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
