In his first public interview since being convicted in 2007 for running an illegal dogfighting ring, Michael Vick will appear on “60 Minutes” this Sunday. DeMatha Catholic High School graduate and CBS’ NFL Today anchorman, James Brown conducted the interview yesterday in Virginia. Special advisor and former NFL coach, Tony Dungy along with Wayne Pacelle, head of the Humane Society of the U.S. will be featured in the segment.
Cameras followed the former Atlanta Falcons quarterback as he returned to Atlanta Saturday to speak with at-risk youths at the New Life Community Center about the tragedy of dogfighting.
“He said he did wrong,” Stanley Jones (17) told the Associated Press. “Now he’s trying to come up with a smarter way to help the whole community, for young people like us, to make a change…It seemed like it came from the heart. I heard him saying something about how he came from the same (sort of) neighborhood that we did. He said he had only one dream, and he messed up that whole dream.”
