Michael Vick talked about the process of becoming the first Black quarterback to be drafted number one in the NFL draft. Vick's career took off in his second year at Virginia Tech, leading to him gracing Sports Illustrated's cover and winning the MVP at the Toyota Gator Bowl. He spoke about contemplating staying in college for another year but was convinced by friends and the prospect of millions of dollars to go professional. Vick expressed relief over ending up in Atlanta Falcons, as it offered his family easy access to come see him play instead of the more expensive and longer commute to San Diego. Despite the pressures, Vick maintained a contemplative approach to his career, stating that he was always aware of his sacrifices and obligations.
