Several media sources are reporting that Falcons quarterback Michael Vick is getting closer to agreeing to plead guilty to federal conspiracy charges related to a dog fighting operation that ran on his property. From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution: "It is a very good chance he will plead guilty," said one of the people who spoke on condition of anonymity. "He definitely wants to play football again. His love is for football. And he would love to play for the Falcons again. But first and foremost is to get back on the field."There seem to be two complicating factors. First, Vick still wants a deal in which he can serve less than a year in prison, and so far prosecutors are balking at that. And secondly, Vick wants some assurance that a guilty plea won't lead to a lifetime ban from the NFL, and ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will offer no such guarantee.
Prosecutors have reportedly told Vick he has until 9 a.m. Friday to accept the deal, and if he doesn't they'll pull the offer and potentially charge him with additional crimes. If the case isn't wrapped up by tomorrow, a grand jury could convene Monday to hear additional evidence.
