F My Life: It's Funny, It's True, Except When It Happens to You

Michael Vick is hoping for a second chance. He promised to fight for animal rights with the Philadelphia Eagles...and he seems to understand that forgiveness from the fans won't come easily.

"I know I’ve done some terrible things, made a horrible mistake. Now I want to be part of the solution and not the problem," Vick said Friday, referring to his conviction for running a dogfighting ring.

The Eagles introduced Vick just one day after signing a one-year deal for $1.6 million with an option for a second year for $5.2 million. None of the money is guaranteed, so the Eagles face no financial risk if Vick does not make the team.

Here is live video from the press conference...
