This past Friday, the NFL Network ran another edition of A Football Life, this time featuring Michael Vick. It’s a good watch and I urge you to watch the entire documentary whenever you have the time. For the sake of time, here’s the portion of the documentary surrounding Vick signing with the Eagles after serving two years in jail for dog fighting charges.
President Obama wound up calling Jeffrey Lurie and commending him for giving Vick a second chance.
Vick was an advocate for The Humane Society and went to Capitol Hill with anti-dogfighting legislation. It truly seems like he’s turned his life around and had a fantastic support system in the Eagles after his release from jail. Some things are bigger than football.
