Should Michael Vick be allowed to play in the NFL again?

Michael Vick was one of the preeminent players in the NFL before being convicted of bankrolling a dog-fighting ring.  He was released from prison this week and many people expect that an NFL team will seek to sign him as a free agent.  Do you think he should be re-instated by the NFL?

I'm furious that Michael Vick be even considered to be given a chance to return to the NFL. He hasn't repented or made any effort to help with the ongoing problem of dog fighting across the nation. He probably still places his bets, after all he's broke and needs money. I can't stand him, he's a pig and he should be banned from the NFL completely, forever. I can't fathom the thought of watching him play and earn all that money knowing that he abused and murdered those beautiful dogs. I have two Pit bulls and I would personally love to let them snack on his nuts. It's obvious that I'm not a fan, but c'mon, is he really sorry? No! He's just an idiot that got caught and is trying to get back in the publics good graces. Was he a good player? Yes, but he got greedy and selfish and wanted more. Of all things to enjoy, watching innocent dogs rip each other to threads shows me that his version of entertainment is sick and demented.

lol not that big of a crime?

are you guys serious and did you even see the pictures of his dog after a fight?

animal cruelty IS a serious crime. it's guys like Michael Vick that make people afraid of pitbulls because ever since they're little they're trained to be aggressive and fight, and then when they end up attacking someone it's the dog who gets punished for how it's owner raised it. euthanasia and a ban on a breed is real fair isn't it? especially for a innocent dog who doesn't get to choose his owner or how he's treated.

Michael Vick should not be allowed to play in the NFL again. there's many poor and athletic people in America so just because he's broke and a good athlete is not a good enough excuse. he fucked up, and in my opinion he should still be in jail for awhile longer.
