Apparently there were some noises last week about how "the government believes Vick has not been forthright in his debriefs with them, and they may push to have Vick sentenced on the upward end of the sentencing guidelines." Though I'm not sure that had anything to do with the sentencing in the end (if indeed it was true, which it might not have been), seeing as how the other guys in the case got pretty stiff sentences as well.
