Comments on: Michael Vick reinstated http://wmwmsblog.com/2009/07/michael-vick-reinstated/ Rarely senselessly vulgar; frequently slightly tacky Thu, 09 Sep 2010 15:00:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Cheryl http://wmwmsblog.com/2009/07/michael-vick-reinstated/comment-page-1/#comment-26571 Cheryl Tue, 28 Jul 2009 16:42:35 +0000 http://wmwmsblog.com/?p=2546#comment-26571 What Vick did was reprehensible (unthinkable to a right-minded person),but they made an example out of him. To his credit, he took it like a man. Now that he's done his time he should be allowed to earn a living. One thing that bothers me about his crime is that people who are capable of doing that to animals have characteristics of sociopaths, and might one day move on to children. There is a general disconnect from the suffering of other living beings. I hope he cleans up his act, but I'm as doubtful as seester.

If he had not consistently been in (serious) trouble in the past, I would not be as uneasy about his second chance. I can hope that the NFL will not give him any wiggle room, as in, he gets his 2nd chance because he has paid his debt, but there's no leeway for screwups. Yes, he paid his debt. He's paid a much harsher penalty than a lot of other players involved in manslaughter and worse. I think Vick and players like him are poison.
