If only the oddsmakers were as clueless as the media
\nscribes and the talking suits. Why can\u2019t Mike Lupica<\/span>,
\nLen Pasquarelli<\/span> or one of their minions such as Oscar
\nDooley post the online sports betting odds on whether and when Michael Vick
\nwill play again?<\/p>\n

After hearing all the doomsday predications about Mike
\nVick\u2019s future, I was disappointed to see that BetUs
\nSportsbook<\/a> has much more reasonable odds of even money on \u201cWill M Vick ever
\nthrow another pass as an NFL QB?\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Joe Duffy, CEO of OffshoreInsiders.com<\/a>
\n<\/span><\/b>says, \u201cLet me make this perfectly clear. <\/span>Barring an act of God, the chances of Vick
\nplaying in the NFL again are 100 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Multi-millionaires, with a dream team collection of
\nlawyers, do not serve long jail terms. This is especially when the victims are
\nnot human beings. <\/span>Leonard Little<\/span> killed a person when driving drunk. <\/span>He\u2019s still in the NFL. <\/p>\n

Ray Lewis was charged with murder\u2014also of a human being. <\/span>With high society attorneys, he was able to
\nplead down. <\/span>Now the same hacks who are
\nwriting Vick\u2019s professional obituary tell us how Lewis is one of the great
\nleaders in the NFL.<\/p>\n

How long with the NFL suspend Vick? The online sportsbook
\nbetting odds of one-to-six months is tempting at +10,000 though admittedly it
\nwill likely be longer. <\/p>\n

But let\u2019s get back to having to bet only -120 with the
\njuice as to No. 7 playing again. Vick will find religion, declare his
\nrepentance and most importantly assert how much he\u2019s matured. The lifelong
\nunderachiever\u2019s insistence that\u2019s he\u2019s grown up with be music to the ears of
\nany coach or GM in need of a quarterback. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m still searching to see if any of the online sports
\nbetting outfits will post long odds on which team Vick will play for. Falcons\u2019
\nowner Arthur Blank has a lot of his Home Depot residuals invested in Vick. <\/p>\n

When Vick said it was head coach Dan Reeves responsible
\nfor his shortcomings, Blank fired Reeves.
\n<\/span>Then the Falcons\u2019 signal caller threw Reeves successor Jim Mora, Jr.
\nunder the bus. <\/span>Mora became unemployed. <\/p>\n

Blank can talk the tough talk now, but he will be first in
\nline to forgive and forget the kid he\u2019s coddled since the day the twain met.
\nPlus while Vick spends minimal time in the federal detention center, the Dirty
\nBirds will lose more than enough to draft a blue chip wide receiver as the
\nyellow ribbon \u2018round Vick\u2019s old oak tree. <\/p>\n

Vick starts more games the rest of his career than Joey
\nHarrington does. <\/o:p><\/p>\n
