VICK POSSIBLY TO BE SHOWN THE DOOR IN PHILLY?

Word is out of Philadelphia this morning is that rumors of QB Michael Vick being released are swirling in the midst of the shooting in Virginia Beach at his 30th birthday celebration at a local club. Although Vick maintains that he was not present when the shooting occurred, and video footage shows that he did leave some 2-3 minutes before the capping started, local police have began to take a closer look at Vicks role in the matter.

Reports are that he may have known the shooting of his former co-defendant was going to take place and may have had a hand in the planning of the shooting. Vicks probation officer also has started to ask questions in reference to the matter as stipulations of Vicks probation hold that he is not to be in the presence of any of his past co-defendants. Although all of the new information at this point are strictly rumors the fact remains that the Eagles have already shipped former Pro-Bowler Donovan McNabb out of town to Washington so what would make Vick so special that they would keep him as another legal issue now again has attached to him. To make matters even more  interesting is that former Eagle QB Jeff Garcia has been seen frequenting the Philly facilities of late and would make great sense to be signed as a backup to new starter Kevin Kolb and mentor to 2010 draft pick Mike Kafka in the event that Vick is released. The Eagles also known for watching their pockets now have 5.2 million reasons to release Vick and move forward. Commissioner Goddell has not stated his position on the matter yet as he awaits the investigation to unfold.
Talk about not having your hands in the cookie jar and still getting disciplined, Michael Vick is at a crossroads...AGAIN!
