I just can't agree with that Ed.? Vick is a celeb and they did play a part.? 
But he got hammered because he lied.? Then his lawyer tried the drug problem, 
clinically depressed stuff.? The Judge was smart enough to see through that and 
punish the liar that he is.? I hope he never plays football again.??Allowing 
him back in the NFL?sends the wrong message to children and families.? Should 
he be made an example?? Yes, he should.? Just as he may have paid for being a 
Celeb, too many other highly paid athletes have gotten away with some serious 
crimes as well because of their status.? These?athletes?are role models to kids 
and should hold themselves to that standard.
Second chances.? Yes, I believe in that.? But, one must show he/she deserves a 
second chance.? Haven't seen that from Vick.? He has done nothing but play the 
system to try and get a reduced sentence.??Maybe if he shows some sincerity, he 
could play arena football or something.? But,?to give him back?everything he 
lost by being a criminal is just wrong.??

    Vick received 23 months in federal prison, many think he got off too light, 
I think he perhaps got more than he would have, had he not been 
"Famous"....make 
no mistake about it, the feds went after Mr. Vick and they "Got" him....my 
question is who else has the federal government went after for dog fighting, it 
would be my guess that this is still going on just as it always has before. 
Don't fool yourself, the Feds were more interested in bringing in a Big Fish ( 
Mr. Vick) then they were about stopping dog-fighting. Having been involved in 
the criminal justice system for 28 years I have seen some interesting things. 
Mr. Vick could do our cause more good by playing football and donating big 
bucks 
to animal groups, vets, shelters etc. than he can from sitting in jail for 23 
months....the federal prosecutor was recommending 12 to 18 months. In our 
system,... justice is supposed to be balanced with mercy....but unlike many of 
you, I too have sinned in areas of my
 life...second chances work sometimes...I hope Mr. Vick gets a second chance 
and 
I hope he returns to football....on a different subject, my bitch is not 
responding much to the blood transfusions, she is still with the vet, my bill 
is 
in the 4 figure area, tomorrow I will perhaps make a tough decision....but Life 
is still good....Ed
