RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Michael Vick's lawyer said Monday the NFL star will plead guilty to federal dogfighting conspiracy charges, putting the Atlanta Falcons quarterback's career in jeopardy and leaving him subject to a possible prison term.

The offense is punishable by up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine, although federal sentencing guidelines most likely would call for less.

"After consulting with his family over the weekend, Michael Vick asked that I announce today that he has reached an agreement with federal prosecutors regarding the charges pending against him," lead defense attorney Billy Martin said in a statement.

"Mr. Vick has agreed to enter a plea of guilty to those charges and to accept full responsibility for his actions and the mistakes he has made. Michael wishes to apologize again to everyone who has been hurt by this matter."

Vick's plea hearing will be Aug. 27, Martin said.

will have to admit though. he gets +1 on the naming of his business venture:

Bad Newz Kennel

they even had hats and shirts made for it.

this cracks me up. they must have been making bank because they were paying the guy that was keeping the dogs $3k/month.

dumb bastard should have flown people to tiajuana to have the bouts if he was that serious about dogfighting.

the guy doesn't care about money so he'll pay, they are already talking about serving less than a year in prison. sure he'll lose his contracts but hey, he doesn't care. how long did paris hilton serve? that's how long he'll serve.
