come da me già anticipato :insider:, Vick farà gli ultimi 2 mesi (2 mesi? ) fuori dal gabbio. il sovraffollamento per lui non è un problema, anzi una fortuna

RICHMOND, VA. — Imprisoned NFL star Michael Vick will be allowed to serve the last two months of his sentence under home confinement because there is no room at a halfway house for him, a government official told The Associated Press Thursday

ah, non subito :D

Vick's lawyers have said they expected him to be moved any day into a halfway house in Newport News. But because of a lack of space, Vick will be released instead to his home in nearby Hampton at some point on or after May 21, said the official, who has knowledge of the case but requested anonymity because the individual was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

poverino
The Hampton house is one of four Vick still owns, according to bankruptcy court papers. He sold the Surry County property that served as headquarters for his BadNewz Kennels soon after his July 2007 indictment.

The five-bedroom, 3,538-square-foot brick home with an in-ground pool in Hampton is assessed at $748,100, according to city tax records. Vick also owns an interest in a $2 million home being built in Suffolk, bankruptcy court papers show. His eight-bedroom home in suburban Atlanta is scheduled to be sold at auction March 10, with a minimum opening bid of $3.2 million.

Vick e la NFL. si rincontreranno?
According to Vick's lawyers, the former Virginia Tech standout plans to resume his pro football career. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who suspended Vick without pay, has repeatedly said he will review Vick's status after the legal proceedings are completed.
Officials of some other NFL teams have said they are not interested in Vick because they would rather not face the wrath of pet lovers and groups such as PETA, which has been a constant fixture at Vick's hearings.
lo scoprirete solo su Football for dummies. mica in questa puntata, prima o poi :D

chi se lo piglia?
Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said earlier this month that the Falcons will try to trade the contract rights on Vick to another team. Vick, once the highest-paid player in the NFL and among its most popular, has a contract that runs to 2013 and calls for him to receive a base salary of $9 million and a bonus of $6.43 million in 2009. The remainder of the contract is worth $45.11 million, with an additional possible $3 million in Pro Bowl bonuses.

Vick also earned substantial sums from endorsement deals with Nike and other companies, but that income vanished after the dogfighting revelations virtually destroyed his image as well as his finances. Vick filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July, claiming assets of $16 million and liabilities of $20.4 million.

C'era nel blog di Scheffer su NFL.com e poi anche su rotoworld.com.

As the clock struck midnight, CB DeAngelo Hall struck it rich.

Hall reached an agreement with the Washington Redskins on a six-year, $54 million deal that includes $22.5 million guaranteed and $30 million in the first three seasons.

Fanculo Snyder a prescindere. :paper:

Fanculo Snyder sempre ed in ogni dove. :gazza:

Ma ogni anno DeAngelo prende tutti questi soldi di garantito?
Cioè, mi spiego meglio, l'anno scorso ha firmato con i Raiders e penso abbia preso bei soldi di garantito, quest'anno firma con Washington: come funziona esattamente? Gli conviene farsi tagliare alla fine di ogni anno?

Un pò di news:

Chiefs LG Brian Waters has reportedly asked the organization to release or trade him this offseason.
Waters reportedly had a sit-down with head coach Todd Haley recently after being told GM Scott Pioli would not meet with him one-on-one. A four-time Pro Bowler and two-time All Pro, Waters was "shocked by the arrogance" of the Chiefs' new regime, which told him his demand would not be honored.


The Ravens have reportedly offered free agent Ray Lewis a three-year, $24 million contract with $17 million guaranteed.
It's a plenty fair offer for the 34-year-old, but Lewis still thinks he's worth more. He wants $10 million a year. Meanwhile, Baltimore has reportedly proposed to give Bart Scott $7 million annually. With the free agency period just minutes away, it appears both are poised to enter the market.

Tuttativa:
The Baltimore Sun believes that Denver could be a more likely destination for free agent Ray Lewis than the Jets or Cowboys.
Lewis had a strong relationship with new Broncos DC Mike Nolan when the two were in Baltimore. Denver is also letting incumbent MLB Nate Webster go. Lewis is thought to have turned down a three-year, $25M offer from the Ravens.


The Providence Journal reports that free agent Fred Taylor is likely to join the Patriots.
The paper believes Taylor, 33, "likely has at least three good seasons left." While that's far from likely, Taylor figures to come cheap and will be a candidate for significant early-down carries in New England. It appears he's choosing Bill Belichick's club over Dick Jauron's. Not exactly a tough one.

Whata prepara l'aglio ed il punteruole di legno. :D

The Cowboys are reportedly shopping SS Roy Williams in trade talks.
Williams will likely be cut in the likely event Dallas can't find a taker. The coverage-challenged safety's release would save over $2 million under the cap and $4.4 million in cash. It's worth noting that if Williams is moved we won't have to refer to the other Roy as "Roy E." anymore


The St. Petersburg Times confirms that the Bucs were among the six teams to contact Albert Haynesworth when the free agency period opened.
ESPN's John Clayton reported that all are willing to meet Haynesworth's demands of $34-40 million guaranteed with a $15-16 million yearly average. With the most cap room in the league, Tampa Bay holds the best position.


The Saints reportedly faxed a contract proposal to LB Jonathan Vilma directly after the free agent period began.
All along Vilma has been New Orleans' priority re-signing and they don't want to lose him to the Buccaneers. Vilma will do better than Channing Crowder did.

The Steelers have a deal paying $4 million a year on the table for free agent OG Chris Kemoeatu.
The Jets are their only known competition for Kemoeatu, who is coming off his first year as a starter. He'll check out their bid before taking his next step

mcfadden degli steelers dovrebbe firmare per i lions,  Warner non ha raggiunto l'accordo con i cardinals e sarà un FA... ma minnie non poteva cercare di prendere warner invece che l'amico di Frerotte?

Ma Rosenfels è ufficiale?...spero di no e chissà che dopo questa notizia Childress abbia un momento di lucidità e pensi a Kurt..

Ed intanto Saturday firma per altri 3 anni con i Colts.

ma com'è che tra safety e cb c'è tutta questa differenza di money?
cioè due buone safety prendono 5 milioni ed un discreto cb(anche buono forse ma che non sempre continuo)ne prende 9?

eh blablablablablabla...

E intanto a los angeles è stata approvata la costruzione di uno stadio da 800 milioni di dollari e si inizia a parlare di trasferire una squadra. Nel sito nfl parlavano come delle papabili franchigie i Vikings (non credo), i Riders (anche qua ho dei dubbi) e dei Bills (già più probabile visto che le voci di uno spostamento non sono state poche già in precedenza. Però visto che è una delle squadre simbolo della lega e con più storia sarebbe un peccato che si spostassero, ancora di più che cambiassero nome).
E io ci aggiungo di mio i Jaguars..

non escluderei (speriamo di no) i chargers che sono in trattative per un nuovo stadio e di cui si era già parlato per un trasferimento a LA
