But his co-defendants in the dogfighting conspiracy are turning on him faster than Heidi cast aside Lauren on MTV's "The Hills." (Yes I do watch the show aimed for teenage girls. But hey it's good drama.) Anyway, back to the issue at hand.

This week alone two of Vick's co-defendants will reportedly enter into plea agreements with the prosecution. Tony Taylor, the other co-defendant in the case already entered into a plea deal last month, so now you have Vick as the lone defendant not working with the prosecution. He's all by himself.

There is still a glimmer of hope for Vick but it doesn't look good. He could continue to proclaim his innocence and be found not guilty in a court of law. Or he could plead guilty right now and hope for a lesser sentence. The prosecution has given him that option but he has only until Friday to take them up on it. There's word if he doesn't do that he could brought up on more charges. So what's a man supposed to do?

That's the question to you all. If you were Michael Vick what would you do? Continue to proclaim your innocence and fight the charges, even though the cards seem to be stacked against you? Or plead guilty and hope to get a lesser sentence and try to move on from this situation as quickly as possible? Let me know what you think.
