Michael Vick doing reality show (after denying it)

BET is going to the dogs. Michael Vick's reality show has found at home at the network. The eight-hour series will follow Vick's return to pro football and will air early next year.

As previously reported, Vick was shopping a reality show while in the slammer.

You'll also recall a sports news outlet reported that Live Feed/THR's story was false. I believe their lead was ... oh yes: "The only reality show imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick is interested in is straightening out his life and returning to the NFL." The article quoted his rep saying, "Any speculation of Mike doing a reality show is false ... He has no interest in that. Absolutely false.”

The Live Feed absolutely congratulates Vick on landing his show at BET, the biggest possible network ... he could get.

Wonder what they will call it? In the Doghouse? It’s a Dog’s Life? Dog Tired? Raining Cats and Dogs?

I thought he’d changed? That prison life had redeemed him and he deserved his second chance?

Here we have him caught lying about a reality show he shopped while in prison. I guess he did that between reflecting on his sadistic actions toward animals and kneeling on his knees in prayer for forgiveness right?

Great example for the wannabe’s ... (kids with no goals)
