Agreed. This is not a race issue. This is an animal rights issue. I however believe that people need to give him a chance. He has served his time, lets see if he straightened up any. I believe he has and am willing to give him another chance.

Cass Sunstein has written some great stuff about animal rights. Like that your dog has a right to sue you for not feeding him at the proper time. We can expect some stuff like this from old Cass and maybe over this case.
Personally, I want to see Vick succeed for Michael Vick. He served his time as a convicted felon and shouldn't be forced to keep paying for what he did.
I just like to watch him play and will certainly do so every chance I get. He deserves that second chance just as you said.
despicable. both what Vick did, and that the NAACP is supporting him.
NAACP has nothing better to do then support a guy who electrocuted, shot, drowned, and dismembered innocent dogs?
The NAACP is just going to make things worse for Vick. There is already going to be negative media attention around him, now the NAACP is going to play the race card and turn even more people away from Vick.
I hope philadelphia fails, I hope vick fails, and I wish the naacp would use some common sense instead of constantly acting on race alone.. vick is a POS that deserves all the worst life can offer and the same goes for everyone else like him, no matter what their race or anything else is.
Vick paid his dues as far as I'm concerned. The NAACP should keep their noses out of it. Philly was probably best place for him, Reid runs a tight ship and he'll find himself on the other side of the fence looking in if messes up.

Prepare to be disappointed. They are already early pick for Super Bowl without Vick, he probably just handed it to them. McNabb and Vick on the same field is a nightmare scenario for defensive coordinators.
The NAACP would never defend him if he were white. It is a race issue for them - they don't care if someone is the worst person in the world, if he's black it's ok with them. These are the same people that rallied around OJ and think Mike Tyson is a "hero". These are people that voted for the most dangerous, despicable person we've ever had in office simply because he's black.
You can't expect anything decent from this organization - they're just out to defend their own no matter what. They don't care what they can do for their country - they only want their country to do, do, do for them.
Michael Vick should never be allowed to play professional sports again. If he were white this same group would be protesting against him being allowed to play.
