Herpes: The One Thing Michael Vick Can’t Outrun!
Good news for Atlanta Falcons fans: Star Quarterback and part-time running back, Michael Vick, has settled a case with a 26-year-old health care worker, who claimed she contracted herpes from Vick after having unprotected sex with him in April 2003. Sonya Elliott asserted that Vick “apologized profusely” for failing to disclose he was infected with the disease, which can be treated but not cured. The lawsuit also claimed Vick used the alias “Ron Mexico” when seeking treatment for the disease. Details of the settlement were not disclosed.
In the case’s original court filings obtained by The Smoking Gun, Elliot allegedly approached Vick after their sexual relationship ended and responded, “I’ve got something to tell you. I’ve got it.” 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.”
Not something you like to talk about!? Listen, Mike: If the Falcons get beat by the Arizona Cardinals, that’s something you don’t like to talk about. If you throw four interceptions in a game, that’s something you don’t like to talk about. Hell, if you get bully-sacked and thrown to the ground by Deion Sanders, maybe even that’s something you don’t like to talk about. But herpes?! We’re talking genital sores and ulcers, and an outside shot at brain infection. And, sir: Herpes - like that elusive Super Bowl ring - is a lifelong gift, my friend. And before you go scoring TD’s with the ladies without putting on your helmet, that is most certainly something you’re gonna wanna talk about.
