I think vick should be able to play in the NFL because he paid his dues.

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
I think you are right.Originally Posted by Spudboy;438908;
The UFL's first season is almost here.
i dont watch football for ppls personalities, he can be an awful person but if he can play let him play as long as he keeps his mouth shut and his hands clean then let him play id rather a quiet Vick play than TO or "Ocho-Cinco" who cant shut thier mouths and just play.
im for Vick playing as long as i never see him unless he is in pads...

Is this this first time in Talksox history that several people have agreed with Gom?Originally Posted by redsoxrules;438909;
Seriously, we are talking about humanity. Not sports. Good luck with the slurpies Vick.

Anyone who thinks Vick should be reinstated needs to look around for dogs in their community and wonder if they deserve to be used as pieces of meat to earn a quick buck.
Someone who uses a creature as loyal and loving as a dog as a piece of meat to throw to their deaths against another animal has no soul and should rot in hell.

WAR is good for something.
I meant to say that. Thanks for saying what needed to be said.Originally Posted by Dipre;438914;

I love dogs i have 3 of em but i think he's served his time and deserves to be reinstated and apparently so does Roger Goodell.

I agree. He did his time, and now it's time to let him move on. He should be able to play.Originally Posted by YanksHater213;438849;
I do really get annoyed with all these sportswriters whining about playing sports being a "privledge", etc.....it's a job! Those guys are specially talented and work hard, and that is their job. Sitting around eating doughnuts and talking about sports, and getting paid for it, could be considered a privledge just as easily!
Vick's crimes weren't crimes against people, either.Originally Posted by Gom;438871;
If Leonard Little can continue to play in the NFL, Vick can give it another shot.
Regardless of that fact, they are still only animals. Leonard Little killed a human being and was able to play again.Originally Posted by Dipre;438914;
I don't know who Little is. If he committed homicide then he should be in jail and not playing NFL football.Originally Posted by TheKilo;438939;
That said, an amoral person is an amoral person. Crimes against humanity extend beyond killing a human being.
No one is opposed to Vick having a life like ours. We all make mistakes. He fucked-up and did things that are beyond simple misdemeanor activity. He showed no regard for life. He SHOULD have known this as a being that is evolutionary higher. He chose to repeatedly torture and kill another creature. His actions are reprehensible and should not be condoned by perpetuating his celebrity in the NFL.

That's fucking heartless, you know.Originally Posted by TheKilo;438939;
Fuck this shit, sometimes examples need to be set, and Vick is the perfect subject to set a precedent against.
And just because they're "just animals" doesn't mean they should be treated with such cruelty.

Exactly. Vick is a human being blessed with a human brain. He has the ability to differentiate between right and wrong. He chose wrong. I'm not suggesting that he should be deprived of his inalienable wrights. God forbid. I'm saying that he does not have the wright to BE RICH as a product of his amoral decisions and actions. He can make a living just as well as you or I working as a common man.Originally Posted by Dipre;438963;
