Michael Vick Hit With Sex Suit
Woman claims star NFL quarterback passed along herpes in 2003

Quote:

APRIL 5--Claiming that Michael Vick gave her herpes, a Georgia woman is suing the star NFL quarterback for negligence and battery. According to the below lawsuit, Sonya Elliot, a 26-year-old health care worker, was infected with the sexually transmitted disease in April 2003 after an unprotected encounter with Vick at the athlete's Duluth, Georgia home. Elliott alleges that after testing positive for Herpes Simplex 2, she confronted the Atlanta Falcons star, 24, about her condition. "I've got something to tell you. I've got it," Vick admitted to her, according to Elliott's State Court complaint, which alleges that Vick then told her that "he had not known how to tell her about his condition, and that it was not something that he liked to talk about." Elliott's complaint also contends that Vick "apologized profusely" for not telling her he was infected with the STD. Elliot's lawsuit alleges that Vick has used the name "Ron Mexico" and, in a related court filing, her lawyers are seeking Vick's admission that he used the "Mexico" alias--and perhaps other fake names--"for the purpose of herpes testing and/or treatment." In her lawsuit, Elliott states that she met Vick at a Virginia Beach nightclub in May 2001 and, shortly thereafter, began a close personal relationship with the football star (though the couple did not have sex until late-2002). Last December, Vick, the top overall pick in the 2001 National Football League draft, signed a ten-year, $130 million contract with the Falcons, the richest deal in league history. (17 pages)

Ahaha, I somehow don't feel sorry for him if all of these alleged activities are true.

Am I a bad person to laugh at the fact that someone I've never met, will never meet, and yet somehow hate has contracted an uncurable STD? If I am, I don't care.

I figured that these big time sport people have agents that are suposed to warn them to use rubbers when out sewing their wild oates... Listen to me, I sound like Im putting the responsibility on someone other than the celebrity... I should be a lawyer! BTW: STRAP ONE ON BEFORE YOU DIP IT IN YOU IDIOTS!!!

The first thing I thought was... Why didn't he take care of her right away, as to not get it in the public spot light? I'm sure this thing has happened numerous times, and we are none the wiser to it. I bet it will not go any further, one way or another, it will be done.

A shitty quarterback and an STD carrier, GREAT COMBO!!! :lol:

Seriously though, he is an utter moron for not using protection because he "didn't know how to tell her"...did he not realize it will come back to bite him in the ass (looks like lack of intelligence on the field carries him off the field as well)? She isn’t any less of a moron either and doesn't deserve crap. She's a big girl and shouldn't have had unprotected sex.

I personally couldn't care less about Vick and his 130 million contract...although it is sickening that a player like him earns that much.

Ron Mexico????

What an incredibly stupid fucking alias. Not quite as stupid as naming yourself after a famous fictional character a la James Bond, but still quite fucking stupid.

He's stupid for passing it on just because he's uncomfortable talking about it and she's stupid for taking because she didn't practice safe sex. As far as I'm concerned, it's a match made in Heaven.

By the way, I can just imagine all the colorful signs and nicknames we'll be treated to this next season about Vick's.....cough....condition.

Maybe it will take more focus away from the fact he's a shitty quarterback... So he can make more money and go to more pro bowls

:rolleyes:

Why do people hate GB fans ? I don't get it. :rolleyes:

Ron mexico. come on now. how can that be true. ron mexico! effing classic! go mike. maybe the herpes will help him learn to the throw the football due to some medical miracle.

That's alright... I hate the rest of the league anyway... Well, I guess I should be more specific, the rest of the NFC.

Alias used in suit accusing QB of spreading herpes
The Associated Press
Updated: 8:43 p.m. ET April 14, 2005

ATLANTA - The NFL doesn’t want Ron Mexico to play for the Falcons.

Since that name was listed as an alias for Atlanta quarterback Michael Vick in a lawsuit filed last month, people have gone to the NFL’s online store to order Vick’s No. 7 replica jersey with a personalized “MEXICO” on the back.

But fans trying to order the customized jersey now get this message: “The personalization entered cannot be accepted.”

The alias was printed in court documents in a civil lawsuit filed March 14 that alleges Vick infected a woman with herpes. Vick has said he will fight the charges.

Among the parties listed in the lawsuit is “Ron Mexico,” which the plaintiff’s attorneys claim Vick has used as a pseudonym. Vick’s attorney, Lawrence Woodward, did not immediately return repeated calls to his office this week.

The Falcons haven’t commented on the case.

The NFL told its online shop to add the pseudonym to its list of banned names, along with obscenities and others deemed improper, NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said.

“The jerseys are intended for fans who want to have their name on a jersey,” he said. “Obviously, this was in direct reference to recent events. We decided it’s inappropriate to sell jerseys with that particular name on it.”

McCarthy said “only a handful” of orders for the Mexico jerseys had been placed, and none were filled. A few “Ron Mexico” T-shirts have popped up at other online retailers, though none of the NFL’s licensed replica jerseys have been sold or posted for sale.

News of the made-up moniker has circulated on sports talk shows and Web sites.

“This is life. This is freedom of speech. You can’t control what people say or do. As long as you control yourself and conduct yourself in a well-mannered way, that’s all you can do,” said Falcons safety Keion Carpenter, Vick’s best friend on the team and a business partner who helped the quarterback start his youth football camps.

The attention has even thrust an unwitting Ron Mexico (not an alias) into the spotlight.

“I’ve been getting a ton of calls. People are asking me if I know him. I don’t, of course,” said Mexico, an auto parts supplier in Brighton, Mich.

“How do you pull a name like that out of the air? Use Bob Smith or Jim Johnson; there’s 50 million of them. Out of all the names in the whole world, I wanna know how he picked this name out,” Mexico wondered.

bump for new info

Apparently you can't order Ron Mexico jerseys anymore... hahaha!

What moron would get "Mexico" on #7? Seriously, that is more pathetic than Vicks QB abilities (or lack of).

Mark it down in the history books as it will most likely be the last time. Come September 8th, a new era of extreme hatred will arise between you and I :lol:

I love to watch Vick on the field, but I'm afraid that now everytime I see him I'll be thinking.. "damn, he has the herpes".

Oh, and This is just plain funny..

I guess people outside of Atlanta just dont' respect him, because if you lived in Atlanta you would realize how horrible it was during football season the last 5 years (I should be precise, 2~3 years before Vick signed). Yeah you guys can snicker and laugh, but fans like players not just because of their talents but for who they are and I'm kinda dissapointed in you guys. Yeah you can have your opinions, but I can tell you this... Micheal Vick basically revived football fever in Atlanta and with that he's worth 130 million no doubt. Talent, he may be lacking in some areas but either a)He will learn or b) he won't learn. Otherwise, marketability, and how much Atlanta likes him... I don't think you guys would know unless you actually lived in the area.

So my opinion is that yes this lawsuit is funny, mostly if it's real. I don't wish STD's upon anyone I don't know, and also I hope that girl doesn't win because money doesn't solve stupidity.

Its interesting how Vick is the Dominique Wilkins of the NFL and happens to play in the NFL.

As a Charger fan, I'm glad we traded the 1st pick used to get Vick. Tomlinson is more productive and they still got a Drew Brees, a Pro Bowl QB, in the same draft.
