The news that a man was shot at a 30th birthday party for Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has taken a twist, with reports that Quanis Phillips, one of the co-defendants in the infamous dogfighting case that landed Vick in prison, was the victim in the shooting -- and that he was shot after a confrontation with Vick.

The Daily Press of Hampton Roads (Va.) reports that a spokesman for Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital confirmed that Phillips was admitted early this morning and was listed in good condition.

A spokesman for Virginia Beach police said the shooting occurred around 2:10 a.m. ET after a fight broke out at the club where Vick was having a birthday party, just as the club was closing.

According to Daily Press reporter David Squires, Phillips showed up to the party even though Vick is not supposed to be associating with any of his dogfighting co-defendants.

Squires writes that there was a confrontation between Phillips and Vick inside the party, that the confrontation then moved outside, and that's when Phillips was shot.

Vick's lawyer, Larry Woodward, says Vick was not involved and was not present when the shooting occurred.

According to the Daily Press report, there were witnesses who "don't want it to be known if they were witnesses."  Police say the victim and witnesses were uncooperative.

In 2004, Vick was present when Phillips allegedly stole a Rolex watch from an airport X-ray belt.

Same thing I'd like to know.

Nonetheless, Roger Goodell will be makin' a phone call to the Vick household.

In our most recent item regarding The Summer of Vick, The Sequel, we explained that the question of whether he had direct or indirect involvement in the reported shooting of former Bad Newz Kennels associate Quanis Phillips has far less relevance than the apparent fact that Vick was in the same place as Phillips.

And while this rekindled association, if true, could jeopardize Vick's status with the federal government and the National Football League, the mere whiff of a problem could be enough to get the Eagles to cut the cord.

For now, the team hasn't said much of anything.  Per Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, the team issued the following statement:  "We are aware of the incident that occurred in Virginia early this morning and are in the process of gathering all of the facts.  Until then, we will not have any contact on this matter."

Depending on what they learn, the Eagles may opt for action instead of commentary.  Before doing so, however, they'd better have a damn good plan in place for backing up Kevin Kolb.
