RUN - Don't Walk........
First it was Nike, then Reebok, now the Trading Card companies (Upper Deck, Donruss) have pulled Michael Vick's cards from their rotation into the 2007 NFL Football card sets.
Not sure why any other companies would ride out the storm with him, unless they are just trying to decipher their out clauses in their endorsement contracts.
Marketing Takeaway - It repeats mentioning - but when securing an endorsement contract , make sure to have an exit strategy, that is in plain English...because the more time it takes for the company to cut ties, the more it looks like they are standing behind the embattled endorser.
