Michael Vicks Out, Waiting and Ready to be Signed Who will take that Risk???????  email this discussion to a friend?

Jgriffin (3) 3 years ago

I am a trememndous animal lover and when I heard about the cruelty that was displayed by Michael Vick on those poor helpless animals, I was so dissappointed. Now that he has been realeased and allowed to play football again, I'm not sure if he should be allotted the privelege. There are teams that are not willing to sign him, those are the Miami Dolphins and the Cincinatti Bengals, it seems to me some of them might have the same opinion as me. What about you what is your opinon on this subject?

I would be surprised if any team signed him. I don't really follow football, was he a good player? If any team signs him it will probably be a team that needs a good player and takes him just for that reason. I think what he did is bad and it will follow him for the rest of his life. You know what they say about karma.

I don't realy follow football that much either, but I know he is in the spotlight a lot. His name is one that is readily talked about. and I believe in Karma. hopefully he has learned from his mistakes. And does not think that just because he is a celebrity he is above the law!

As with most crimes towards animals, I think his jail time was not long enough. He allowed terrible things to happen to those poor defenseless dogs and I personally do not feel that he should be allowed right back into a football career so easily. He had the character and lack of principles to do these bad things in the first place and I really feel a leopard does not change his spots. So, I am very disappointed in his short jail time and the fact that he is allowed the privilege of going back to the limelight and football as if nothing ever happened. It is sickening to my stomach.

It disappoints me that People who think they are above the law, just because they have some High societal status, actually are. Just because they are celebrities or Famous, means that they should not receive a full punishment. This is why they never learn from their mistakes and repeats occur almost all the time. Even if they are convicted, they are never put in a real prison!

I just found out that Michael Vick has been signed by the Philidelphia Eagles. He is going to practice, and play in the last two pre-season games. Full re-instatement will be considered later. He is being required to become an advocate for animal rights. He was on T.V. and apologized for his stupid and cruel mistakes he has made, and says he wants to be a part of the solution, not the problem. He thanked the Philadelphia Eagles for giving him a second chance. I have always believed in "second chances" providing the person is genuinely remorseful. How can anyone really be sure? The senseless curelty committed while running his dog fighting ring, makes me question the sincerety of his new committment. Personally, I don't think his punishment was severe enough! What are your opinions?
