A major stir was created on Friday afternoon, when Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald reported that quarterback Mike Vick would be working out for the Patriots at 3:30 p.m. EDT.
As it turns out, it wasn’t Mike Vick. (And we can now -- and forever -- say with a high degree of confidence that the only way Mike Vick ever will be in Foxborough is as a member of the visiting team.)
But another quarterback worked out for the Patriots yesterday, at or about 3:30 p.m. EDT.
It was Cleo Lemon, a five-year veteran who has been bouncing around the league of late.
Sure, both Lemon and Vick are African-American. But Lemon looks nothing like Vick.
Meanwhile, we continue to receive e-mails from readers insisting that Vick was in Pittsburgh on Friday.
