Who's doing that? If kids are that naive to believe that they should have their head checked.

ummmmmmm did you not watch the post game after MNF last week when they spent 2 hours and the rest of the week talking about how great Mike Vick is? and how they opened up MNF last night with Vick running out of the tunnel and the announcer screaming "#7 MICHAEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLL VICKKKKKKKKKKKKK"

oh and now a 7 year old is supposed to know the difference between Michael Vick the person and Michael Vick the football player. and if they don't, they should have their heads checked. you can't be serious...

is any one else dumb founded by this guys comment? comparing fucking killing insects with a magnifying glass to drowning, electrocuting and hanging dogs. wow.

Yeah, I guess we shouldn't kill flies, cockroaches, fleas, ticks, etc., just let 'em run around the house.

And for the record, the consensus in the scientific world is that insects can't feel pain.

Are you a vegetarian? You should see what goes on with the chicken and cattle we eat.

Exactly, how does a 7 year old know what Michael Vick even did? Once he does, the kid should of been brought up to learn what is right and what is wrong. It's not Vicks job to be a role model, it's to be a football player. Pretty simple really.

I am a step farther from vegetarian, I'm vegan.

Next.
Well, then it should bother you that the rest of the players are playing a game with some dead animals hide.

no, really..its not that simple. a lot of kids who grow up like Vick don't have role models or parents to teach them right from wrong.....so who are they turning to....the people they see on TV like Vick.....

last time i checked, this is america, and i'm pretty sure that this is how we do things in america

if you are a talented individual and you fuck up, apologize, "pay your dues", and become loved by the public again

vick is labeled as a bad guy or ex convict for fighting dogs? i am not saying that i am any part for it, what he did was disgusting and terrible, but that is just how things work here. its not like he murdered two humans and got away with it like oj

i rather vick dominate and give us fans the excitement that he brings rather then him be scrutinized every single time he is shown on tv, sick of people beating a dead horse, shit is over with, MOVE ON

funny how you left out 'learn from your mistakes'.

which is exactly why it is not ok to be 'loved by the public again'

I do what I think is right. I don't think its wrong to eat meat, its just a personal decision. I don't judge people who eat meat, wear leather, etc.

If you are going to kill an animal for the meat, it actually brings me certain degree of comfort to know that all of the animal's parts are being used; included leather to make footballs, cow hoofs to make gelatin and skittles, placentas and fetuses to make beauty products, etc.

I'm gonna stop by the slaughterhouse and ask them for how long they torture animals before they are killed. Will get back to you guys as soon as I have an answer.

Next.

I've heard them all by the way.

as a person, sure, vick is bad, whatever, i cant really argue with you there

but as far as vick playing QB, he is exciting to watch, which is why i like him, i dont think any sports fan can argue against vick's excellent play on the field, esp this year

i think its just haters or peta people who wish for him to fall again. i mean, you guys wanna talk about morally wrong? you guys want to talk about real crimes? what about our government (usa) fighting these stupid wars for their own agendas, killing civilians in other countries, pretty sure humans suffer as well, not just dogs. but since these other humans are "different" from us, its ok. but if a puppy gets hurt, O NO! we must convict the perpetrator and ban him from redemption. YOU THINK VICK IS STILL FIGHTING DOGS NOW? obviously not, he has learned his lesson.

just because you were raised in this society which portrays the dog as mans best friend, etc, you view vick as a villain meanwhile soldiers that murder people are valued as heroes? what kind of world do you live in? i love dogs, but dont get me wrong, people tend to bring this topic out of portion.

sure, you can choose to not like vick, or not to have him as your children's hero, but what do you want from him Francis Battista (Co-Founder, Best Friends Animal Society)????? if anything, vick has shed light on dog fighting and general awareness for animal cruelty

You look real dumb when you generalize. I am 100% against war in Irak and Afghanistan.

Stay on topic. This isn't about other stuff that is wrong in the world.

Just vick? Jeez, I guess they should watch more TV or get out more. Kids grow up and it's their responsibility to have some common sense. That's why there's public education. If you're a kid who doesn't have any parents or a chance to go to school...there's still no excuse to actually believe that what Vick did doesn't matter because he got off the hook. According to the laws, Vick paid more than enough time for what he did. Commentators aren't praising him for what he did. Everyone knows what he did was disgusting and wrong. What they're praising is that he got back off the ground and is playing above and beyond anyones expectations. Big difference.

If you can honestly disagree with him overcoming his unfortunate situation he put himself through and overcoming it, which is an inspiration to others that have been in similiar situations....then there's no point arguing. All I have to say is congrats Vick and haters gon hate
