Michael Vick Hit With Sex Suit

[ALinChainz]

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, which does not specify monetary damages, 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.

[rustoffa]

The Regular Guys were lambasting Vick today.

If anyone from the LA area misses those two, you can stream 'em at WGST.com.

[ALinChainz]

Jim Rome ran the story on his show, should be hitting all the major news sites very soon.

[Fairwrning]

Damn...Mike is gonna get his ass sued off...what a dumb move.."something i don't like to talk about"...WTF??
You gotta tell the chick you are about to screw, man...unreal...

[ALinChainz]

This is the guy the NFL wanted to hang their hat on as their "Jordan" too.

I've always thought that was a bit much.

Some people don't deserve multi-millions, they do the dumbest shit.

I love how a "health care worker" rides bareback.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

This shit cracks me up...

Not for the chick who got herpes from him, but because of the fake name...

My name overseas was Carlos Santana.... ;)

You didn't want the girls offbase to know you're real name because a lot of times they'd blackmail you to extort money from you....

And it would work most of the time....

[Mama's Fool]

Had this been Randay Moss or Terrell Owens this would be a much bigger deal. The NFL PR people are doing a great job of keeping this under raps.

Vick's alias 'Ron Mexico' not funny to NFL or to the real guy

By ERRIN HAINES, Associated Press Writer
April 14, 2005


ATLANTA (AP) -- The NFL is trying to stop the spread of Ron Mexico.

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

Now, fans trying to order the customized jersey 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 the 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.

NFLShop.com, meanwhile, has added the pseudonym to its list of banned names, along with obscenities and others deemed improper.

``We did instruct our NFL Shop to not sell those jerseys,'' NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said. ``The jerseys are intended for fans who want to have their name on a jersey. Obviously, this was in direct reference to recent events. We decided it's inappropriate to sell jerseys with that particular name on it.''

NFLShop.com employees and supervisors were notified in an internal memo Monday that they were no longer allowed to sell Falcons jerseys with the Mexico name, customer service representatives said when asked about it.

The NFL would not provide a copy of the memo. McCarthy said ``only a handful'' of orders for the Mexico jerseys had been placed, and none were sold. Anyone who placed an order for the jersey will receive an e-mail letting them know the order has been canceled and their money will be refunded.

A few ``Ron Mexico'' T-shirts have popped up on eBay, though none of the NFL's licensed replica jerseys have been sold or posted for sale on the Internet auction site.

``If somebody bought a jersey during the time the NFL Shop was selling them, it's their item to buy or sell if they got it legitimately,'' eBay spokesman Hani Durzy said. ``We would not pull the listing if it did not violate any other policies.''

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

. Carpenter is Vick's best friend on the team and a business partner who helped the quarterback start his youth football camps.

A web site, www.ronmexico.com, features a Ron Mexico T-shirt with Vick's image, his number and ``MEXICO'', available for purchase at $16.07, and links to news articles about the lawsuit.

The owner of the site, a 30-year-old Chicago man who would not give his name, said it already has viewed at least 10,000 times and he has sold about 100 of the T-shirts.

``I don't want the site to represent a judgment on the case or Vick as a person,'' he said in a telephone interview. ``It's making fun of the alleged porno name. The guy is an amazing player, so the nickname's going to stick with him regardless, one way or the other.''

The attention has also thrust an unwilling 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.

He said he only knows of two other Ron Mexicos -- and he's related to both of them.
