Vick: I Found Jesus
Posted Aug 27th 2007 11:41AM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: Celebrity Justice, Talk Sports

Speaking in a quiet, contrite voice, former NFL stud Michael Vick faced the media outside of a hotel in Richmond, VA -- and accepted responsibility for his role in a dogfighting ring.

"I will redeem myself" said Vick, "I have to."

Vick wasn't specific about the acts he was sorry for, but declared, "Dogfighting is a terrible thing. I reject it."

Between apologies to everyone from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank -- to all the kids who used to look up to him, Vick declared that he's found Jesus and has turned his life over to God.

"I was ashamed and totally disappointed in myself, to say the least. I want to apologize to all the young kids out there for my immature acts. What I did was very immature, so that means I need to grow up."

Vick also dropped part of his apology in the third person saying, "I totally ask for forgiveness and understanding as I move forward to be a better Michael Vick the person, not the football player."

During the presser, Vick made it clear several times that he never "pointed the finger" and is prepared to face the consequences of his actions.

After speaking for nearly five minutes, Vick left the podium without taking any questions.

UPDATE: TMZ has learned that the judge has accepted Vick's plea.

I just saw that on the news.

This was to be expected, of course.



And that idiot on Headline Prime actually said something funny about it.

He found Jesus?

Well, I was wondering where he was!

Of COURSE he found Jesus when things were going badly for him. The trick is, to not lose him when they are going well!

I didn't think it would happen this fast either. Next time, we take bets not on *if* the guy finds Jesus, but *when.* I thought it'd at least be 6months to a year. I mean, he isn't even behind bars yet.

Maybe he'll find St. Francis, patron of animals, as well

Give me a break. Vick didn't find Jesus. Jesus was keep books for his Dog Fighting Business... Geeze.

Before or after the obligatory rehab?

They must have had a ton of evidence to where he didn't have a choice...

I laughed at this one.

Sweet! I made $15 in our betting pool. People didn't think he'd pull that card so fast, but I won *dance

So you hear Vick found Jesus?

No way. That mutt couldn't find his ass with both hands and a flashflight.

I hear you; no-class, no-nose.

Enough already. Deal.

The betting pool is now open on when he writes his children's book.

I'm a different person now. Please understand that and hold me less responsible for the actions of my former self, since I'm clearly sorry for the actions of that person who is no longer me.

It will be about a little boy who loves puppies.

You, Sir, are an artist.

But I think we've got this whole thing wrong. Vick says he found Jesus but maybe it's not the same Jesus we're thinking of. Maybe he's confused. Maybe someone decided to play a mean joke on this stupid sommabitch and told him that guy with the red and white shirt and crazy hat with glasses was called Jesus and gave him that big book and said "Go find him."

That's a new low, even for you.

Even hinting at comparing Vick to them? I wouldn't go there on Bush... not to that level. No way.

It's fortunate that he found Jesus and didn't go all the way and find God, which, spelled backwards is . . .

I was hoping to see you on a thread I started...to comment on the irony of a West Wing episode...but then, you most likely have me on ignore....such a pity...

Honestly, Jesus is starting to remind me of an ambulance-chasing lawyer. You'd think he'd let this puppy-killer sweat for a few weeks before He intervened.

Dog gone, that's funny.
