If he isn't allowed to play Pro ball, what should he be allowed to do? Should he be allowed to work at Walmart? How about McDonalds? What is the difference between those companies, and doing playing in the NFL?

It isn't the job of the NFL to punish people for crimes committed. Vick has already been convicted, served his time, and released. He's free now, if the court system didn't see any reason to punish him further, why should the NFL?

If the franchise wants to hire him and take the heat of the decision from the public, so be it. n/t	Death_Claw	August 16, 2009 09:27AM

Playing Pro Ball is a Privilege not a right, he doesn't deserve to play ~	ORB	August 14, 2009 12:22PM
I'm not rushing to defend him. I just think it's a stupid reason, other than the 'crime' of it, to not allow him in. NT	Batman	August 14, 2009 01:40PM
I support his playing football if a team wishes to hire him, but....	ExPaladin(VIP)	August 14, 2009 01:48PM

I still think that killing someone, if their sentence is over, is a silly thing to stop them from playing NT	Batman	August 15, 2009 03:23AM
