Vick reinstated conditionally, may play by Week 6

Kobe Bryant's case was dismissed, he never served time.

Peewee herman was charged with child pornagraphy.

[Lady's Human]

Kobe Bryant's case never went to trial because the accuser refused to testify in a criminal proceeding. A civil suit was later settled for an undisclosed amount of money. Anyone want to bet what the outcome of the accusations would have been had it been someone without an 8 figure salary?

Paul Reubens was arrested for indecent exposure, the case was dropped.

He was also later arrested for posession of child porn.

Being that his stardom came from making children's TV shows, I think his career being torpedoed was entirely appropriate.

I'm not defending Kobe at all but the whole case was on pretty shaky ground and if she was really raped she shouldn't have sold out.

oh brother why didn't someone just off with him while he is in prison now if this would of been a non famous person theyh would of gotton the book thrown at them but since he is some stupid football player they smack him on the hand

this is BS

There's remorse for committing such heinous acts and there's regret because he got caught. Huge difference. Vick showed no remorse either in his comments or even in his body language and facial expression. He had a smirk on his face the entire time and I imagine that the smirk is even wider now. Everyone does deserve a second chance. With God. Not w/people in general. Petitions, protests, editorials, none have made a whit of a difference in affecting his employment. We know that this is a move motivated solely by financial consideration and not for any altruistic reasons. No one is sorry, no one cares except the public who were outraged but it made no difference whatsoever. Vick's employment should be that of cleaning dog cages for the rest of his life. Instead, he'll be cleaning up for the NFL and for himself. Once again, animal abusers win and the animals lose. This will never change as long as there is a financial component in all of it.
