With his football world crashing around him, Michael Vick apparently did something to take the edge off the stress.
He smoked some weed.
Now, I'm willing to bet more people knew about Vick's alleged marijuana use than his dogfighting escapades while he was playing for the Atlanta Falcons, but that's a story for another time.
In the last few days, the word on the legal front was that Vick might be sentenced to a lot less than 18 months by U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson after his guilty plea for bankrolling a dogfighting operation. Now that he has tested positive for marijuana use — the sample was taken a week after the start of the NFL season — who knows if this could alter Judge Hudson's stance toward Vick?
Granted, drug use is illegal but I doubt that many of Vick's fans believe this latest offense is any big deal. The NFL, however, has higher standards for its employees.
