It's true, though, at least to a certain extent. He owned a horse farm with some expensive racing horses. This is from wikipedia.

The status of Vick's approximately 60% interest in Seven Charms, LLC, a horse farm in Conyers, Georgia in partnership with Arthur Washington (who was also involved with Vick in the Payless rental car business near the Atlanta airport) was undetermined. In September 2008, the farm, in which Vick had invested $200,000, was sold at absolute auction for unpaid real estate taxes at far below market value. Washington apparently failed to notify Vick of the pending auction and kept the proceeds. Documents revealed that both the actions of the county and Washington are being challenged by Vick's attorneys due to his federal bankruptcy protection.

Six valuable racing horses boarded at a horse farm in Florida were to be sold, with net proceeds after commissions and expenses to go towards the bankruptcy fund. As of the September disclosure, one of these transactions has already been completed, with net proceeds of approximately $30,000.



The 'official' stuff on it is in this  article, but I can't be bothered to find it in there.

This is quite possibly the most confusing thread I've read here at PackersHome.com... Wow!

Sometimes in life we forget just how much time we Americans spend on the abstracts of life such as sports and others in the world spend little yet are just as drawn to the game as we are.

With the new Gameday access policy more and more "lurkers" that read a ton but posted little are now joining in on the conversations.. I think it is fantastic for them to become more involved.

I use Rockmolder as an example.. sometime ago he was "green" to the finer points of the game.. now he can out discuss most.. a share of that gained knowledge was gained through this forum.. isn't that what it all should be about.. discussing, sharing, learning and have a couple of laughs..


On the Vick topic... I did not know he had ownership interests in racehorses.. Lesson for the day.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=3726426 

Number of boats Vick owned at one time: 2.

Number of racehorses he had an interest in at one time: 5.
