Ravens Insider:
Nothing really surprises me anymore, but I do find it interesting that Nike has decided to get back in bed with Michael Vick some two years after pulling out of his promotional contract because of his involvement in a reprehensible dogfighting operation.

Feel free to come up with one of your own.
I'm sure Nike has come up with a way to spin the whole thing into an interesting advertising campaign -- probably one of those dark, edgy shoots with Vick looking remorseful and talking about paying the price.
What I'm not sure of is whether Vick will ever regain his superstar status, as it relates to anything but his disturbing past. The Eagles used him in a number of situations last week, but he didn't exactly light up the stadium.
