More Bad News For Vick
ATLANTA (AP) -- There are indications that Michael Vick's legal troubles could produce some financial consequences.
Nike has suspended the release of its latest product line named after the Atlanta Falcons quarterback, who is to be arraigned next week on federal charges of sponsoring a dogfighting operation.
Nike has told retailers it will not release a fifth signature shoe, the Air Zoom Vick V, this summer. A company spokesman says the four shoe products and three shirts that currently bear Vick's name will remain in stores.
While Nike still has a standing contract with Vick, the company has declined to speculate on its future with him.
