I don't know why people are so harsh on Vick but don't see a problem with, say, Kobe.
Kobe: charged with rape (acquitted); then publicly admitted committing adultery with his wife on his side with a new multi-millon $ diamond ring (were his daughters at the news conference as well)?
Vick: Committed a crime, sentenced, and served his penalty.
To me, both are as disgusting as each other, but somehow people are so much harsher on Vick. Weird.

The anti-vick movement is really annoying. Out of all the issues out there, you're gonna boycott one of the most talented QB's out there because he's bad with dogs?
If you boycott everything that's associated with something bad, I'm not too sure what you'd be left with. Our food is grown/picked by illegal immigrants, our clothes our made in countries with no minimum wage or child labor laws, there's alot worse things than this to worry about and stand up for. Just don't let Vick dog sit for you, that's all.

The women he beat should have seen the signs that he was abusive and left him. She had the choice. The dogs Vick subjected to that kind of torture had no choice. There isn't even a comparison. Brown's crime isn't nearly as disturbing. Vick should not be let back in the NFL, it is a shame that he was. Sure he did his time in jail, but that should not be the end of it. If he had any sense, he would donate a large portion of his first year's contract to the SPCA or something. Instead, he will spend it all on meaningless material things, and he will eventually be broke again. What a waste of space this guy is.

who cares about vick he sucks anyways. hes not a good qb. hes exciting but hes not accurate or makes good decisions when throwing the ball. why isnt anyone hating on stallworth. he ran someone over and killed him. vicks crime wasnt that big of a deal people just blow it out of proportion just cuz hes famous or rich. there are probly people doing worse things as we speak. vick got what he deserved. did his time and some big black guy probly mounted him like a dog hahahaha. hopefully demarcus ware or laron landry snap vicks legs tho.

In case any of y'all missed the 60 Minutes interview, here it is:
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5245553n
Seems like he got out all the talking points his image team instructed him to spit out. Only time & his actions will tell if his attitude has truly improved. He seems to be heading in the right direction so far, but only time will tell.
