Vick makes 12cents an hour....and plays prison football

Micheal Vick apparently is staying occupied in federal prison by washing pots and pans for 12 cents an hour and playing football with fellow inmates, according to a New York Daily News interview with Falcons owner Arthur Blank who has stayed in touch through letters. He played full time QB for both sides in a flag football game.

That's one way to pass his time and keep his arm loose. I am guessing likely the first player picked when the inmates are choosing up sides or the guards are choosing up sides for them.

How long until a dog loving inmate knocks him out with a sack, breaking a leg and making his comeback impossible? I am sure these are very well behaved and calm inmates. I am guessing the mascot was a Pit Bull and the showering was a little different then after Vicks NFL games.

I am sure he was focused more on not fumbling the soap then he ever was holding on to the football. To go from being on of the faces in the NFL having a 10-year, $130 million contract to 2 years in Jail and 12 cents an hour. Karma is a bitch.

The Longest Job is either a ripoff of The Italian Job or a lower budget spoof of The Longest Yard.

Maybe I'm wrong but when I used to play flag football as a kid you could not sack the QB and nor could the QB run.

No "Coach" I didn't. But as this article confirms your visions of "prison flag football" are just that, "visions".

I am guessing my visions of prison flag football might be a little more real then you at age 10 in a Park and Rec City league

Sorry to dispell this as well, we never had any park or rec flag football leagues. If I played it was during school lunch/recess.

We can argue about just about anything here, It's great.Where I grew up we wouldn't have even thought about playing a sissy game like flag football.We played a game called if he has the ball, knock the sheeeet out of him.
