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?

[KaciBlakely]

None of the guys have any opinions about this?

I'm really shocked.

I'm basing all my opinions about news articles and radio sport shows, and espn radio.

The factual evidence that they are bringing out.

I never saw any footage of the dogfights though and they say they were severe.

I just wonder how he can represent an American pastime and be a role model when he hurt poor dogs.

And you know Americans view their pets as family.

Even if they aren't blood.

That's my opinion and thoughts though.

from what i read the cowboys are not and never were interested in the vick. cowboys have tony romo. the only reason i can see them even wanting him is to run the wildcat offence with jones and barber. I think he will go to Jax or even Oakland given al davis likes to gamble and will buy up on anyt hing that is fast and vixk is very fast or at least he was

I agree completely with you Target.

Completely!

That might be a first for us lol.

I never thought Dallas was really interested.

But I live in Dallas, and it's the hypothetical people are throwing around at the bars, and clubs.

You know what I mean by that?

And it's been talked about to death on the sports radio stations I listen to.

I think he will go with Al Davis 100%.

Which wouldn't be a bad move for him really.

He should take whatever he gets, after having to file for bankruptcy earlier.

al davis does like to take chances on bad boys as in randy moss in the past also he is a sucker for speed. his number 1 draft choice was garbage but since they guy was like the fastest person in the draft he took him......... we shall se where vick goes.

I'll be watching for what it's worth.

It's news worthy for right now.

And I want to see how he gets welcomed to a team if he does.

The NFL experimented with the small quick quarterback offense with little success because the Defenses are way to quick.
The big brawny quartback is what is needed now to compete with the speed.
Michael Vick is not seen as an asset to any team.
The animal activists will boycott any team he signs with and the fear of loss in sales is too risky.
I see him in Arean football or the Europe league.
