Michael Vick got reinstated yesterday into the NFL, what are your thoughts on that? I personally think he should be banned for life.

He committed a crime, sewrved his time, and should have the right to persue an income. If the pursuit leads him to the NFL,, then he has every right to do so. He is not the first, nor will he be the last, felon in the NFL or any professional sport. I can not think of the player's name, but there is one who only served something like 24 or 26 days of a 30 day sentence for killing a woman in Floida while he was drving drunk...seems like a light sentence to me. I would have a hard time rooting for my favorite team if Vick was on it, but do think he has a right to work.

As loathsome as dog fighting is I too think he has every right to continue his life after serving his time. If Vick plays again he has an opportunity to continue to speak to others about what he did. Returning to work shows that it is possible to move forward with your life. If he has further issues...throw the book at him. Convicted felons often have a difficult time finding employment after they are released. Vick isn't your typical case but please think about what we do to those people who have served their time. When we continue to freeze them out of society we sometimes create situations where their only option is to return to crime.

Dante Stallworth killed a human being and served 24 days in jail.Vick killed some dogs,did 2 years and you still want to crucify him.

It's hard for me to get all that upset because what he did (as terrible as it was) really had nothing to do with his job.

He paid his debt. No reason for him no to be able to do what he does -- ball.

What does football and dog fighting have in common? When you serve your time you are allowed to have a life afterwards.
