The Writings On The Wall For Michael Vick

Might as well say goodbye to Michael Vick. NFL commisoner Roger Goodell told Vick not to come to training camp this week until the league reviews the dogfighting charges against him.

"While it is for the criminal justice system to determine your guilt or innocence, it is my responsibility as commissioner of the National Football League to determine whether your conduct, even if not criminal, nonetheless violated league policies, including the Personal Conduct Policy," Goodell said in a letter to the quarterback.

Vick will still get his preseason pay and Goodell told the Falcons to withhold any disciplinary action of their own until the league's review was completed.
