Vick lost $70 million in contracts and endorsements and is also doing jail time. Few would agree with your assessment.

Attorneys address those things, saving Michael time and money. Do you think Michael isn't listening?

Unlike a current NFL player, Michael Vick is paying the price for his crime. Don't hate him cause he's young or black or quarterback. Vick has become that token symbol for America.

Some would argue that it is humane to kill animals severly injured and on the verge of death. If you value human life {abolish death penalty, abortion, torture, genocide, etc.} then I respect your opinion. Otherwise, its crap, dog.
