[QUOTE="swamprat_basic"][QUOTE="BlackStalker"][QUOTE="swamprat_basic"][QUOTE="Big_Papi7"][QUOTE="Eman5805"][QUOTE="KaptainKorn"][QUOTE="swamprat_basic"] He should not be banned from football for crimes unrelated to football. He broke the law, and the law should punish him as harshly as they can, but the NFL is something completely different.csimonma
You're kidding me. If someone decides to be an axe murderer after they clock out at work, you wouldn't expect them to be fired eventually?
Last time I checked, ax murders kill PEOPLE. You can't possibly be equating an ax murder with what Vick has done, that isn't even REMOTELY close in my book. Please tell me that ain't what you're saying.
If a teacher gets a DUI, they can be fired from their job.When you apply for a job, you have to check the"have you been convicted of a felony"box,companies have the right to not hire you, so why would that be any diiferent here.klslick
There's GREAT reason to not have a convicted felon teach children, that same reason doesn't apply to football. You want to win games. If he does his time, and a team thinks Vick still has enough legs under him, they'll probably sign him. Why shouldn't they? He woulda already served his time, and inevitable suspension.
I can't believe anyone would even side with Vick even a little bit after what he did. What he did was absolutely cruel! How can you say after what he did he still should have the privilege of playing football? Thats ridiculous. And about you're "Axe murderers kill PEOPLE" thing, of course killing people is terrible! Its absolutely terrible, in fact theres no word for how terrible that would be in my book. But I don't think there is a bad enough word to explain what he did to those dogs either. His privilege was playing football, and he ruined it when he broke the law.
What Vick did has nothing to do with football. How can you possibly justify banning him, when he is going to all ready be punished by the law? Because he's a bad person? Give me a $%@#ing break. Why would I have to worry about firing an axe murderer, when he is going to be in prison?
A teacher is directly responsible for children, a role model. If a teacher has a drinking problem, he or she should be let go, but not banned them from teaching forever. If the teacher were to go through rehab, I would consider hiring he or she, if they were the most qualified candidate.
Michael Vick is more of a role-model then any teacher is. He had millions of people, kids watching him. Then he goes proves what he really is by dog fighting. You know he watered down dogs and then electricuted them? He is a sick man and should rot in jail for at least 15 years. Are you kidding me? Reinstate him in the league? Are you kidding me? Even if he was allowed NO team would sign him. But he wont be allowed, as he shouldn't be. I can't beleive your justifying him actually playing football. When you have millions of dollars, you don't need this. He obviously didn't do it for the money. He did it cause he is a ****'d up man who likes killing dogs and watch them kill each other. IMO, I hope he rots in jail for the rest of his life and never does anythign with his now sorry excuse of a life. People do deserve second chances, not Michael Vick.
And what does killing dogs have to do with football? Nothing. You guys are ridiculous.
When did I justify anything? I said that he should not be banned from football for crimes unrelated to the sport of football. Say anything you want about it, but killing dogs has nothing at all to do with football. He will be punished by the law, and that is where his punishment should end. Once he serves the time that the American criminal justice system allots as his punishment, Michael Vick should be allowed to play football again. That doesn't mean that he will play, or that anybody will sign him, but it would be travesty to keep punishing the man after he has all ready served the time that the law has set for him.
Yeah if you were in Mike Vick's shoes right now wouldn't you want to have a second chance if you still wanted to play football?
Yea, but the only Teams that would accept Vick are.
