Federal prosecutors have offered Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick a plea deal that would recommend he serve at least one year in prison on a felony dogfighting conspiracy charge, according to two sources with knowledge of the discussions.

I had heard about that on the radio yesterday. I say that he accecpts the plea bargain. At least then he might be able to save a few years of his life and quite possibly his career. I will find the source as soon as I post this, but the NFL is planning on a one year suspension for Vick as well. So, if he only serves a one year Prison sentence, he could be back on the field some time next year having learned a valuable lesson.
