Flip this Houze: Vick's place to be auctioned

On a day after Barry Bonds was indicted on federal perjury and obstruction charges, the sports world's other famous subject of a federal investigation, Michael Vick, is back in the news.

The infamous Surry County, Va., house that was headquarters for Vick's dogfighting operation, Bad Newz Kennels, was sold this week to a developer who plans to turn around and auction it off.

So, are you looking for new digs and don't care about bad karma? There's a public showing of the house, a 4,300-square foot two-story white brick building with a backyard basketball court, on Dec. 8-9. The auction is Dec. 15. No word on what the developer paid but reportedly, it's less than the $747,000 assessed value.

With all that money you would think Vick would have one of dem Cement Ponds. Or at least fill it with water, but maybe its a dog fighting ring. LOL
