Michael Vick playing in the NFL again?

[KaciBlakely]

Last August it was noted that Michael Vick's agents and lawyers, were in talks with the National Football League for him about returning to football.

He was even quoted in an interview that was blasted on the net saying, "My plan is to go back into playing football."

Well now, almost a year later the above is confirmed that Michael Vick has been reinstated to play in the NFL.

The only thing that is left is for him to find a team to play for.

After serving 1 year and a half in prison for a inhumane crime, running a dog fighting ring, he was reinstated by Roger Goodell on Monday.

Goodell is the NFL commissioner just to let you know.

I've been hearing so many conversations about Vick coming to play for the Dallas Cowboys so I decided to make a thread about it and see what all the members think of this.

It's weird for me to think that he could be active in games in October of this year.

I've heard that he can be active in workouts and metting and can play in the final two preseason game, but the thing is, who is going to sign this guy anyways?

I don't think Dallas will take him.

And a few other teams have already said they wouldn't take him and have decided to pass on him.

One of them being the Atlanta Falcons, who released him from his contract before his jail time.

I have been talking with many of my male friends and they said they would boycott their teams if Michael Vick was given a contract by any of them, so I was wondering what you guys were thinking?

I could not even imagine what Michael Vick is going through.

Peta is not letting this go even though he paid his time, but I don't even know if I'd be okay with it.

I'm just such a dog lover though.

What does everyone else think?

Mike Vick is scum and it saddens me, as a Colts fan, that Tony Dungy is helping this piece of crap regain entry into the NFL. :(


He's probably a steal in fantasy football this year though in the late rounds for anyone that doesn't want to waste a rounds 1-5 pick on a QB.

How can you defend a man who has acted the way he has? He has no remorse. He just wants to get back to making millions. And his brother is as a horrible person as he is. (Rape, anyone?)

Coming from an ACC school, I've seen Marcus Vick in person and know how much fun it is to rag on him.

"On January 6, 2006, Virginia Tech announced his permanent dismissal from its football program "due to a cumulative effect of legal infractions and unsportsmanlike play".[3]

In response to being thrown off the team, Vick has been quoted as saying, "It's not a big deal. I'll just move on to the next level, baby.""


This family is filled with nothing but menaces to society.

Do you really think this is the only dog fight in the NFL?
Vick was stupid and got caught.
There are likely dozens going full steam today.
This is way bigger than Vick.

How, in anyway, does that make it any better and Vick any less guilty?

The NFL is filled with thugs, no doubt. But that doesn't make Vick any less guilty.

And GloBug, my point about Marcus is that this isn't an isolated incident with Michael. I'm sure he and Marcus have done some pretty shady things before, and the fact that I wouldn't want to hang with either one of them makes me think that they're not the kind of people that deserve my respect.

well he did his time so quit i dont know why people keep making a big deal about it. thats what makes me sick. his brother was a nobody with out mike. what else has vick done that would lead u to believe that he did shady things with his bro. he made one mistake i say again and he has paid for it.

You say it's one mistake, but I believe it's the only thing he's been caught doing.

I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree.

That why I am not a fan of the NFL anymore or any of the thug players.
I just gamble on it like everyone else does.
Vick who?

Hey, it could always be worse.

It could be the NBA.
