Michael Vick Ordered to Stay Out of Training Camp

NEW YORK (AP) - Michael Vick was ordered by commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday to stay away from the Atlanta Falcons' training camp until the league reviews the dogfighting charges against him.

"While it is for the criminal justice system to determine your guilt or innocence, it is my responsibility as commissioner of the National Football League to determine whether your conduct, even if not criminal, nonetheless violated league policies, including the Personal Conduct Policy," Goodell said in a letter to the quarterback.

The NFL said Vick would still get his preseason pay and Goodell told the Falcons to withhold any disciplinary action of their own until the league's review was completed.

Goodell told Vick the league would complete its review as quickly as possible and that he expected full cooperation.

1. That's a good start. Giving him his unconditional release and giving the Falcons
some cap relief would be the best solution.

2. I think Vick should participate in these dogfights
throw him in the ring with 3 or 4 of the best.
