Now here’s an interesting offer. Playgirl has offered to make a $1 million donation to PETA if Michael Vick bares all for an upcoming issue.
A spokesman for Playgirl confirms to Life & Style magazine, “I sent the request to Michael Vick on Wednesday, but we haven’t heard back yet. I figured he paid back society for dog fighting, but what about the animals? This way he could donate a large sum to PETA and all he’d have to do is pose for the magazine! It’s kind of a win-win situation!”
If Playgirl had done a bit more research, they might have found that PETA still isn’t a fan of Vick; and after his release from prison flat-out refused to work with him. HSUS, however, did take him in–so perhaps they would be willing to accept the donation? Either way, don’t expect it to happen. I doubt any publicist attempting to rebuild the shattered image of their client would recommend dropping it for Playgirl as a stop on the road to retribution.

+ add your ownI have no interest in seeing little mikey - I don't care how good looking a man is outside if he's an ugly a-hole on the inside. And vice versa guys... An average looking man becomes irresistible when he cuddles a kitten :)
The only place VICK should go is straight to hell in a hand basket!!! Rot in hell animal abuser you are a puke of a person. I lost all respect for football after Vick was welcomed back with open arms - crooked all the way to the bank - BOYCOTT FOOTBALL - Karma asshole!!!
Vick should burn in hell for what he did. There is no way he should ever be forgiven. I believe at least 1/2 of what he makes should go to HSUS.
I would not purchase anything that has Michael Vick in it or on it. But I would be glad to see PETA get the money for our fight for animal welfare. But this still will never make amends for what he did. Never!!!!
Sharon B. i agree with you...
The most unfortunate outcome of this whole situation is, once again-animals are considered valueless and companies are trying to cash in on this sick damaged individual -regardless of the wrong he did and the pain he caused simply because he can make them money playing with a football.Take all of the money that was spent on "damaged control" and publicity to dupe the public so that this man could become endorsement material again and give that to the local no-kill shelters.Shame on Nike,shame on Playgirl and shame on every other company that is spending money trivializing a sick,barbaric,sad and immoral situation.
I find PeTA's disdain for Vick the height of hypocrisy since they've euthanized thousands of dogs and cats because they believe no animal should be a companion for a human being. Their radical agenda is so deplorable and only after getting caught and now embroiled in a very long and expensive lawsuit, will their atrocities fully come to light.
There words "putting to sleep forever" is indicative of a very corrupt organization who has deemed themselves as 'judge, jury, and, executioner'.
He should pay $$$$ for the rest of his life. Every cent he earned dogfighting should be donated to an animal shelter.
Vera D, I like the way you think.
Ok.. I do not have to see him naked and the dogs get the money so ok.. but it just makes him a naked man who abused dogs in the most evil way.
