Star quarterback Michael Vick lost his endorsement deals when he was sent to federal prison.

Nike re-signs Michael Vick
Michael Vick, the star National Football League quarterback whose career was interrupted by a dogfighting conviction, has reached an endorsement agreement with athletic equipment maker Nike.
"We have re-signed Michael Vick as a Nike athlete," Megan Saalfeld, a Nike spokeswoman, said in an e-mail to CNN.

Vick, currently on the roster of the Philadelphia Eagles, served 20 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to bankrolling a dogfighting operation. He has since emerged as a spokesman against dogfighting.
"Michael acknowledges his past mistakes," Saalfeld said. "We do not condone those actions, but we support the positive changes he has made to better himself off the field. "

Mike Vick haters are idiots!!! If you really wanna cry, cry at the Good Ole Boys With the Deer Heads on their walls, and Bear Rugs, Zebra Rugs, Fur coats, Etc. Also, CRY about Vick's ancestors who were lynched, CRY WHEN YOU GO TO YOUR LOCAL GROCERY STORE TO GET YOUR MEATS FROM SLAUGHTERED ANIMALS. CRY when you order out and get your favorite burger and steak and EAT IT RARE lol. CRY CRY CRY and after you are done wiping your tears, take your thumb out of your blow hole suck your thumb and give Mike Vick a thumbs up for at least apologizing.
LMAO
WELL SAID.
NO! They get a TV show: Mounted In Alaska! HYPOCRITES!!!!
How many serial killers started by torturing animals? Answer, all known serial killers!
GO VICK GO VICK GO VICK
LMAO LMAO
I WILL GO BUY 4 PAIRS OF NIKE, ONE FOR ME AND THE OTHERS FOR MY BROTHERS JUST TO CELEBRATE.
I see shows where people kill animals all the time and it's cool. Down south I see where they take dogs on hunting trips and they get their ass torn to pieces by wild hogs and it's cool. So what's the big deal with this one man who fought dogs. Its still goes on today, and their hasn't been an effort that's even remotely close to stopping liked they went after Vick. I just don't get it.
you dont get it b/c you are an idiot
Jeff.................I would classify you as an immense horses A** but cannot because a horses A** is intelligent.
@nick, I chose to sight blatant examples of hypocrisy. You chose to call me a idiot without addressing anything I said. Now if you care to shed light to my perceived hypocrisy in sport of killing some animals but not others,i am listening
hunting dogs are generally well taken care of and loved by their owners in the traditional man/dog relationship. they arent abused and dont have to spend everyday training for another fight and ultimately death. in the rare case a wild boar does manage to inflict damage i can promise you the owner doesnt sadistically torture and kill it. hunting and dog fighting can not be compared. besides for every 1 time i hear about a dog getting mauled on a hunting trip i hear 50 reports of some broke ass ghetto thug trying to run a dog fighting kennel
....and btw i dont hunt
i live in Texas so im fully aware of the "South" too
"Whats wrong with eating dog meat" go get all up in arms about that article instead. AND Vick got that whole NFL lock out covered. Besides,...i like turles. Good Morning Viet-Merica!!!!
Chang...............Orientals should never eat dog meat because that is CANNIBALISM................and as for Vick.....he is a PIG..................hope that Nike goes broke and that God sends 5 tsunamis to the orient.
after reading this i realize thats 10 seconds ill never have back
Shut up old man.
No more Nike's for me.
mary, let's face it, you haven't worn Nike since Cheers went off the air
You and I both.
What a farce! It's all about the $$$$. Michael Vick cares nothing about the animals he damaged or the huge efforts expended by others to repair the damage he did.
I agree with you 500% Kat, no more Nike crap for me!
I am looking forward to buying several nikes
Nike just lost our families support! Vick is a dog-killer. The only reason he stopped is because he got caught! Shame on your Nike! No more $$$ from us.
Michael Vick is not sick, you cannot blame one man for the frailities of our society. Do you stop drinking alcohol because Charlie Sheen went off the wagon on it? Did you stop drinking orange juice because OJ is now in prison, and he may have killed his wife? Did you stop playing baseball when you found out players used steroids? or corked their bats? Did you stop watching Brett Favre throw TD's after his alleged pic scandal? Great your an animal supporter, as most of us are. However his guilt was by association. Much like watching a horse race, those ratings go to advertising dollars spent/received and given to the jockey's and counter parts....they abuse animals live on television, and when one gets hurt they take them out...naturally.
Michael Vick is a man, and a very good one at that. It takes real heart to admit he was wrong and his participation by association was not the right thing to do. He went from everything to nothing and is making his way back through hard work and pure talent. He deserves everything he gets because he knows how hard it was to lose it all and to almost never play again.
He is not a man and the only reason he is showing remorse is b/c he wants to get paid again.
Beautiful, a company that pays pennies to 9 year olds to make their garbage products hires a felon as their spokesperson. Great choice Nike...one more reason for people not to buy your stuff.
He who is without sin/wrong doing cast the first stone. Allow the man to live his life!!!!
My "sins" don't go so far as to include the death of innocent creatures. I'll continue to judge Vick until they do.
GOOD JOB NIKE & GOOD JOB VICK.
FEEL LIKE GETTING ME A NIKE TODAY!
im sure your welfare check wont be wasted
troll baba loo
How many serial killers started by torturing animals? Answer, all known serial killers! WOW! Troll YOU ARE SO WRONG THE REAL SERIAL KILLERS STARTED BY LYNCHING MIKE VICS ANCESTORS . THEY ARE CALLED KKK.
Well Said!
nice! another ignorant african american playing the race card HOW ORIGINAL!!
Are you all too stupid to realize that there IS a difference between hunting something for food and keeping the populate down so animals don't get diseases and starve to death and what Vick did which was just a grotesque display of inhumane treatment of animals. If not go back to school and get a clue hillbilly!
they will never get it unless someone raps it to them
Michael Dick is just that...........M. Dick. Anyone that is twisted enough to do what he did, and enjoyed it, and financed it and clearly knew it was wrong and against the law should not be paid gobs of money from Nike. Bad move Nike. Maybe Tiger, but not Dick. Looks really really bad.
Agreed!
