This is how Vick makes it back to the NFL

The problem here is that, while if you or I would have committed this crime, we would probably find it difficult to get a job anywhere, etc., This guy will jump right back into the limelight with an exorbitant salary. The fact that he is a convicted felon will probably not cause him any hardship. & the reason being that many do not seem to think that what he did should keep him from helping his team win. IMHO, this is ridiculous.

I agree that he will likely find it easier to find work in the now. But later on down the line he will not. But that is beside the point, in the now he will suffer less of the after effects in terms of employment. But by the law, you can not take that into account with terms of punishment. And we would be opening up a can of worms if we required certain individuals be punished more harshly than the law allows for the common person.

Now, while he was sentenced to 23 months. The recommended sentencing was 12. I would like to see him do all 23 months. But even if that does not happen, he was punished in accordance with current laws, and has already received a harsher punishment than many others that have done the same exact thing.

He will still have lost his right to vote, the right to keep and bear arms, and several other things. This may not sound like much, but to a person like me, that is worse than under two years in prison, or loosing a multi million dollar contract. But that is probably not the case for him.
