In the clip above, Kjafa blasts Michael about the statements he made advising Kaepernick to cut his hair in order to be more appealing to NFL teams.
Vick admits he was wrong and says he wasn’t looking at the afro as a ‘statement’ but was thinking of it from a style standpoint. He also states that he shouldn’t have said it, stating:
“No one in any race should be stereotyped based on the way they look, dress and act. But it’s the reality of the world we live in.

From the sidelines to the social frontlines, VH1?s ?Baller Wives? will highlight pro athletes and their wives as they navigate love, family, business and balling in the world where relationships are complicated and the competition between neighbors is thick. While the men may call the shots on the field, it?s the ladies who truly run the game.
The couples of ‘Baller Wives’ include the following:
Kijafa and her pro-quarterback husband Michael Vick have been married since 2012 and have two beautiful daughters and a new baby on the way. Kijafa is the Queen Bee of the ladies and knows everyone?s secrets.
Stacey and Chris Chambers, a retired wide receiver for Miami, are happily married and expecting their second child. Big believers on taking an unconventional approach, Stacey finds herself in a heated disagreement with Kijafa and has formed her own alliances within the circle.
