   Like ANY sports figure in question for “date rape” or drugs or animal abuse, their high saddle butts would be kicked out of sports and anywhere indefinitely. One strike is three. No wonder kids think they can get away with murder.

   It’s not simply about cruelty to to animals nor about dogs specifically…it’s a mindset of hate and destruction.

   the president of the Humane Society said he’s open to Vick one day being allowed to own dogs again.

   Hope the Humane Society changes their stand to say he’s only good for donating to animals, not caring for them.

   Wonder what Best Friends Animal Sanctuary thinks about this. They, and others went to court to save the Vick dogs from being put down. Since then they’ve rehabilitated and in the very least saved them.

   To be judgmental:
   Vick, OJ, Micheal Jackson – treated the same way by many who only see one thing.

    Obama feels a sort of comradery with Michael Vick…they have both profitted from getting down and dirty in the pits! Vick sicced his dogs on others, and Obama has done the same.

    So, in a way, Obama is asking the public for a second chance, offering up Vick as an example of what happens when one gets that chance.

    Ain’t gonna happen, pal!

    Doesn’t Obama have more important things to do? He insults our allies, apologies to our enemies and spends the rest of his time groveling at the feet of sports and entertainment celebrities. You get the idea that he would consider getting his own TV show a promotion. Maybe Oprah can hand him her old show as she pursues her new venture The Oprah Network (pay attention Michelle O: TON)

    Vick served his time. His crime had nothing to do with football.

    You don’t have to like him, and his team IS keeping him on a rather short leash as it were, but there’s no reason to prevent the man from practicing his profession.

    Vick MAY be one of the few prison actually helped. He’s certainly a more focused player now, and his work ethic has improved tremendously.

    He’s bankrupt, he’s a pariah and he MAY have finally gotten his head on straight.

    I agree with everything you said except that. It would be like saying ‘drinking alcohol in excess’ has nothing to do with driving a car. It did involve illegal gaming which, in general, does affect the NFL because it’s all under the same illegal ‘roof’.

    I don’t have a problem with Mike Vick. It’s Obama. Mike Vick made a guilty plea, went to prison for about 2 years and paid a huge fine. Financially, he was ruined and he lost 2 years of a short football life. So he did his time and has a right to earn his living.
    What bothers me is Obama’s need to inject himself into every issue on the planet. He declared himself an expert on the Cambridge, Ma. police department and decided the issue needed his divine intervention. He declared himself the moral arbiter of whether there should be a mosque at Ground Zero. He decided there should be one, in his mind ending the debate. He shows up at NFL games, college BB games, makes phone calls to steal the limelight after the UConn ladies break a record, there is no end to his hogging the spotlight. And in Obama’s mind, his intervention in earthly matters is akin to heavenly intervention. And this is a man that on Sunday, the New York Times, via liberal prof Dalleck, said was so humble and modest that he did not need the spotlight.

    The idea that we’re supposed to “forgive” Vick and “Wipe the slate clean” because he served 21 months is absurd. Yes, he served his time but that doesn’t undo his past actions. No one is under any legal or moral obligation to pretend Vick isn’t a scumbag.

    IMO the punishment for Vick wasn’t even close to what he or anyone else that kills and tortures defenseless animals should get.
    As far Odopy goes he is a “0″, I’ve noticed lately he’s trying to promote a better image, he knows he’s disliked by the majority of Americans, my money says he can’t do it. You may be able to polish the apple but the rotten worm is still inside.

    Killing/torturing animals, or watching animal fights is a ‘tell’ to forensic psyhologists and behavioral analysts. And yes; a lot of people suffer from the same thing. It’s part of the societal disintegration.
    That’s why there’s no sufficient outrage to Vick’s crime. If a person can do it to a creature, it’s a step away from the next target: children, then adults. Imagine Jeffrey Dahmer caught while he was still torturing the squirrels.

    That could be the case, except it’s not. There is no ‘goodness’ in either side of that equation.
