Michael Vick
Michael Vick According to one of his bankruptcy attorneys, suspended NFL quarterback Michael Vick could be in a half-way house any day now.

Vick is serving a 23-month prison sentence on dogfighting charges and is scheduled to be released by the Bureau of Prisons in the summer of 2009. However, the former Atlanta Falcons star QB is to move Vick to a halfway house soon to serve out the remainder of his sentence.

"It's anticipated that it is going to occur any day," Norfolk bankruptcy attorney Paul K. Campsen told U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Frank J. Santoro at a hearing in Newport News. "They're processing him out."

In the bankruptcy case, Santoro has approved hiring brokers to sell some of Michael Vick's assets. Vick filed for bankruptcy protection in July, claiming assets of $16 million and liabilities of $20.4 million.

The
judge approved a plan to sell Vick's suburban Atlanta home at auction. Another one of Vick's attorneys said the eight-bedroom home in a gated lake community has been shown to about 30 potential buyers, and a deal to sell the home for $3.15 million fell through at the last minute.

Now the plan is to start the bidding at $3.2 million. No date has been set for the auction.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has not said whether he will lift Vick's suspension after his release. Vick once was the league's highest-paid player before his indictment and guilty plea left both his finances and his reputation in tatters.

If Vick does every get to play in the NFL again, one thing is for sure, it won't be in Atlanta. The Falcons are very happy with the new face of the franchise. Matt Ryan had a tremendous rookie season leading the Birds back to the playoffs after a dismal 2007 season.
