Vick?????????

Answer 1

History!

Answer 2

Some say that Vick is a sick d_ick or whatever. I say that he is human, that he made some big mistakes and bad decisions, and that he should pay his dues but be given a 2nd chance as everyone else is, especially people who murder and harm other adults, and often our precious kids!

Instead, he will probably be made an example and serve 2 to 5 years, and never be allowed to play again in the NFL. I hope he goes to the CFL or something and kicks ace.

Maybe some of you can volunteer your dogs to be the next QB for the Atlanta Falcons. Don't get me wrong, I hate dogfighting, but I think animal lovers far outweight people lovers, and at least you stand up for your pets, but not kids.

Answer 3

These people are mentors for our younger generation, I saw Vick actually apologize in a manner like he said something bad. The man committed a serious crime, not one but several. He should be banned for life from sports and fined, then the sentence and the hell with the NAACP and what they think is bias.
They should then start to clean up sports and keep it clean for our kids. Their sending them a bad message right now. Sports was good, sports was clean, I'm ashamed of it right now, steroids, drugs, drinking, rape and assault, crashing cars and running, etc, it goes on and on. It has to stop.

Answer 4

Why is it so easy for people to crucify Vick for his "bad" judgement?? I think its very easy to allow myself to give him the benefit of the doubt (to a certain degree). I can easily see that of all the people involved (the "guilty informants", Vick, his cousin and friends) that he probably had less to do with any of this than all of them...I seriously doubt that Vick spent his 3-5 months "off" per year totally engaged in being the "orchastrator" of a "crime ring" whereas the winnings were as low as $500-$1000 dollars?!? Is that even "a gamble" to M. VIck?? No...it isn't. Too his friends and family, yes it is. As I'm sure he "supported" his cousins, friends, "groupies", etc... with a lot of money through the years w/ houses, cars, etc...I'm sure he knew of the dog-fighting (even attended fights) but anything else is highly unlikely...Just like every star and their groupies - M. Vick didn't have to wipe his "own" @ss - he could get one of them to do it. As I doubt that he would even bother with killing dogs himself- that's what his "entourage" is for. However much he is involved with all of this (i'm sure limited to casual involvement) that that was enough to scare him into a plea...shiiiiiid - even an innocent man would consider doing 1-yr, when there's a good chance (due to minimum involvement) that you could get put away for 25 years....his ownership/admissions since...are the result of him saying what he needs to say in order to receive as much leniency from the courts and his employers...and as far as his job is concerned (this is where the issue becomes racial/cultural) - his career wouldn't be in jeopardy if it wasn't from the public "outcry" from the "mainstream". I bet a lot of the "mainstream" would pr'oly think he was "eccentric" if he were "alledgedly" arranging "tiger-fights"...but because the "mainstream" has placed dogs on a certain level in animal society - they are "outraged" (and also hypocrits if they're not protesting other animal abuses)...and the "mainstream" doesn't realize that to Michael Vick and a lot of other black americans...dogs aren't placed on the same pedestal (to a certain degree)...generally speaking - we have been "taught" to fear dogs since slavery and as recently as the civil rights era. To that point - we have a different value of dogs in relation to "human" life...meaning - we've been "taught" how to "de-value" life and there are many examples of this today in our (black) community. It amazes me how the "mainstream" looks down upon our "socialization" as if it's not a product of our former enslaved "bodies/minds"...as if they (mainstream) wouldn't find themselves in the exact same situation if reality was reversed.

Answer 5

How can the NFL go too far, he committed a FELONY. Let me ask this, would your job take you back if you did your time after committing a felony. No. Now think about this, the army won't even take people with felonies and they are seriously hurting for bodies. Fact is, playing in the professional ranks is a privilege not a right.

Answer 6

he is a scumbag who deserves everything they give him and a whole lot more. I think his punishment has been on the lenient side so far. Hes a liar and just an overall poor excuse for a human being.

Answer 7

I think he deserves punishment but this is looking excessive, I feel should be a large fine, community service, 5 yrs probation, no jail time.

Answer 8

Cough drop.

Answer 9

i felt that he should be punished by the law, but i feel that the nfl went a little to far. there has been nfl players who have done worse sh!t, but still play in the nfl. he was truly a joy to watch on the field.

Answer 10

Irony that he says he founds Jesus right before sentencing, don't you think?
