my take on marcus
ok this is my opinion on the kid
he grew up around here from where i am from, the hampton roads area...
he did just as good or better than his brother while in high school and looked to be a future star following his brother @ tech and then onto the nfl but...
i guess the bad side of college life took him over for the worst and everything went wrong for him, now dont get me wrong i am not defending lil vick in anyway because all of this crap fell on himself and only has himself to blame, but i do feel bad for the kid in a way, he had everything to live up too including his brothers rep and he failed. he could have been a star @ tech with all the kids i know that play ball up there. but thats all you would hear kids talk about around this area, "mick n marcus vick", a lot kids looked up to both of them for inspiration, especially mike.
but now marcus has just about failed in kids and adults eyes around here...last night he was arrested for pulling a gun on 3 people out in suffolk @ a mcdonalds because a group of guys(thats atleast what im hearing from my people) tryed to talk to the woman he was with and to get her to come over to them and leave marcus and well quite frankly, marcus got a little angry and showed them who the hell he was and he wasn't playing around at all and then the police were called and he has wound up in trouble once again, its a shame though that this kid can't get his head right and do something positive for himself, he had everything in life, the money and riches of his family and brother, you should see the cars he drives and the house he lives in out in suffolk, its rediculously huge, but oh well i guess, somebody needs to teach marcus right from wrong and get a new set of friends because from what i hear, he doesn't hang out with the right crowd @ all which may have lead to some of these things he did.
good luck to marcus
and someone please help him get back to his dream of following his brother or just even a normal life of a 21 year old
