    Re: This is how Vick makes it back to the NFL

    If he had been a reptile seller, who was caught stomping snakes to death when they didn't sell at a show, and was put in prison for 2 years.. would you then say "Well, he's better now! Of course he should attend herp shows again!"
    Why should he have any opportunity to rise up in the public eye? To tell folks that as long as you have a good PR team you can do whatever you like? To tell kids that if you have a stupid talant to play a game, you can get away with immoral acts?
    I'd be terribly disappointed if the Bears did hire him, or the Falcons took him back. Let him go drag around in the indoor football arenas or better yet.. go get a JOB and work at a regular real life job.
    He paid his debt by the penal code, but I don't think anything he does would erase the moral debt he's incurred by glorifying dog fighting. Tons of kids that idolized Vick now will boldly state that dog fighting isn't that bad. IF he manages to leap into animal causes with both feet, and not behave like a spoiled prima donna when he gets out, then eventually maybe... but right out of prison? No way, IMHO.

    I think he is a sleaze ball. He is arrogant and I think he has not changed.

    So what you went to prison boo hoo cry me a friggen river. He was an idol to many children. When you have status like that you should do what is morally and legally right. Even if at one time he thought dog fighting was right or OK society obviously taught him it was not acceptable, or he would have talked about it publicly at some point or another.

    He knew it was wrong and he should not be let off the hook because he did some time.

    To heck with him.
