Marcus Vick Jersey - Keep it Real - Marcus Vick Jersey
Keep it Real by Wearing your Virginia Tech Marcus Vick Jersey. What
better way to support the insane "New Mexico" Vick family than by
wearing a Hokies Marcus Vick Jersey... after all, since being kicked
out of Virginia Tech, arrested numerous times and watching his NFL
stock plummet... Marcus Vick is in need of serious financial help (his
brother Michael only signed a $130MM contract).
So set the trend and support the Vick family with your #5 Marcus Vick
Jersey is Virginia Tech Hokie Red. Also fun, reading the HokieSports PR
blurb on Marcus Vick (which still hasn't been removed despite him being
thrown off the team)... its a barrell of laughs:
