To allow a convicted felon of torture and murder to continue to make millions is a CRIME in and of itself. What has America come to when it loses its values for the sake of money! If they were children tortured and killed I bet he would;t be out!!! To harm defenseless animals and to let children look up to this scum in the name of just a sport, is outrageous!

We will be boycotting all the NFL sponsers and Eagles sponsers until VICK is GONE!!!!

I also contacted all the animal rights groups (including PETA) I know and told them I lose all respect for their concern for animal fighting if they do not have Mr. Vick sign a contract binding him to voluntarily retire from The NFL, serve the time he would been playing in The NFL working with a animal rights group and mental rehabilitation with counselor or counselors, then they will either hire him or help him find a job. If he refuses or breaks the contract they will protest his every publicity and attention until for honors every condition, and under their time tables, of the contract.

Well, it looks like he did have all that names and numbers of the dog fighters after all and he was not willing to all he had.

There must be a line to be drawn where behavior that is also done by serial killers is not accepted into The NFL, ever. In case you do not know harming and killing animals is one of the very few and most reliable links between serial killers.

I have contacted The Commissioner twice, once with a campaign and later to remind him that I still demand the banishment and adding-on a demand that there are new very severe(sp?) rules and punishments for any current and future people connected in any way to The NFL that harms through kill one or more people and/or humans. Or I never spend another red cent on The NFL, again.

Vick needs to be banned to send a message. He is an adult who needs to be held for his actions.
The NAACP and anyone else who supports this guy needs to get a reality check. Stop supporting the lowlifes of society just because they are ‘black’, ‘brothas’ or ’sistas’.
Why show yourself to be narrow minded?
The NFL takes a tougher stance on what? Nothing. They only care about their image. I think anyone who has a Vick jersey should burn it. Once he is sentenced, he will be released.
The problem is that this moron does not even get the results of his actions. He is so, arrogant like the rest of the atheletes who commit crimes that they all need a lesson.
This lesson should be that you lose your ‘bling bling’ if you commit crimes against HUMANITY.
VICK SHOULD BE BANNED FOR LIFE. ENOUGH SAID.

NAACP don’t play this poor me scenario and try to gain sympathy for a murderer like Michael Vick. When are you going to act responsible for the wrong actions of your members! Any which way you slice it, Michael Vick is a pre-meditating, contemplating murderer. Human or Pet the sentence is Life in prison, Electric Chair, and/or Booted out from NFL. The NFL in the name of good sportsmanship, and acknowledging the importance of law and order, has correctly acted in Banning Michael Vick. This murderer should be re-tried for criminal charges in the Federal System for a term of Life in Prisonment.

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE HIM ANYWHERE! HE NEEDS TO DO HIS TIME AND TRY TO GET A JOB LIKE OTHER FELONS OUT THERE. LET AMERICA AND PETA STEP UP AND PUT AN END TO DOG FIGHTING-NOT MICHAEL VICK.

THE NFL SHOULD BAN VICK FOR LIFE!
He facilitated dog fighting, financed the gambling and particpated in the hanging and execution of dogs for entertainment.
He is a psychopath.
He pleaded guilty because he is guilty.
He lied to Arthur Blank and Comm. Goodell throughout the investigation.
He is not the role model that we want our children emulating.
Playing for the NFL is a priviliege which Vick is no longer entitled to.
IF THE NFL DOES NOT BAN VICK THEN EVERY PERSON WHO BELIEVES IN JUSTICE MUST BOYCOTT THE COMPANIES THAT SUPPORT THE NFL - DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS, BOMBARD THEIR CUSTOME SERVICE AND CORPORATE OFFICERS WITH EMAILS AND DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS!!!

Ban him from football? NO!

This guy needs to be in a cage (on the 50 at half time) with 20 hungry pit bulls or better yet how about a gasoline bath and light his ass up on live t.v.

I would tune in to Monday Night Football for that!

Vick is more dangerous than a rabid animal because he knows wrong from right but still has no concience and no sense to protect things weaker than himself. You have to wonder what other terrible evil this S.H.P.O.S. has done.

Lynn you are right! Letting this guy work in an Animal Shelter is like letting a Pedophile baby sit the kids!

As for coolhendo… You are an Idiot!

If the NFL lets him play before he’s 70, I will never, ever watch or go to an NFL game again. I will only bad mouth them as being a bunch of stupid brutal animals.
I bet he buys a mansion in Argentina so he can continue participating in the torture and killing he so loves. Just like a pedophile, people that love blood and pain can’t quit.
I only hope the state comes through with the 5 year per animal sentence they are allowed so that he is he is in prison at least till he’s 70.
The forgive and forget mentality will NOT work for me. Just like I will never forgive John Gacey, Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Green river killer etc. People who do acts like this, premeditated, continuously, and thoroughly
enjoying it cannot, and should not be forgivin. They will do it again if they can…

coolhendo arn’t you leaving part of that forgive out? What about sin no more & being heartfully sorry? I will TRY to forgive when he gives at least 10 years of his money to animals instead of high priced lawyers, When & only when he serves lots of time in jail and turns in EVERYBODY he knows that are in any way involed in dogfighting & stealing & getting animals for bait. Then after all that he works for free to help all animals for a few years I will try to forgive, until then I am praying God will do everything in his power to make shure he & all his friends get on this earth and forever what he so rightly deserves.

Pray about it and forgive? Not me.

There are a lot of things one can forgive, but when it comes to harming defenseless animals or children or women or men, not a chance.

You go ahead and pray and forgive, coolhendo, but I’d much rather dream sweet dreams of the SOB behind bars.

For you who has not sinned cast the Ist stone. Let pray about it and forgive.

Why is the NFL protecting Vick? Probably because it’s too costly NOT to.

One of the things Vick has inadvertently shed light on is exactly how inept and gutless the football teams, leagues, and the universities who have pro-ball, really are. To them it’s all about winning [=$$$]. Human values are totally denigrated. And worse, the spectator population buys into this crap.

I think there ought to be a moratorium on all professional sports for a year. Let them all get ethics and anger management training, get rid of any player with any kind of police record, make them do community service without pay. Rewrite rules and contracts such that there’s no more “suspension”; one infraction and you’re toast…in other words, make sportsmanship what it used to be.

I know….I must be dreaming.

Whoever wrote this article sure hasn’t followed the case. Vick wasn’t just accused of gambling on dog fights he tortured and executed innocent dogs. Vick WAS the main funder of the fights. He traveled across state lines with his dogs to participate in dog fighting. He owned a dog kennel that raised and sold dogs to be fought. He’s not a small fish, this is a big hit to dog fighting. Why is the NFL protecting him? Pacman Jones was suspended and he didn’t have any federal indictments against him. I want to see Vick fired and stricken from the NFL all together.
