vick hired by the philly eagles

I had to force myself to watch the 60 Minutes interview. If there were any true contrition, it didn't come through to me. The only *sorry* I want to hear from him is (as Gini mentioned) a portion of his salary - at least 50% to be donated to animal rescue/shelter organizations. That would be the only justification for seeing him play football and earning those big bucks and the only way to see just how sorry he is.

He's sorry alright; a sorry excuse for a human being.

I thought about watching, I love the show, but could'nt bring myself
to look at his ugly face.

I find it hard to fathom that anyone who has read what this "man" is capable of can think Vick actually has the capability to feel "sorry" for the pain he caused them. People who can do such prolonged, repeated acts of torture on animals seem devoid of any ability to empathize, I just don't think it exists in him. I find all of it so very, very upsetting. I can only hope the scorn of the fans will prove too much, though I have doubts. I'm sure many will be taken in by the HSUS's endorsement of his "reform."

I watched the interview online and I regret it now. I hope I am not the only one who saw the start of a smirk on his face throughout the entire thing. It's now burned into my head. He has cried so many nights in jail for the guilt? I can tell you now by the look on his face throughout the interview he cried because he lost money and ruined his career. He cried because he got caught. What a sick, sick scumbag.

The thing that did make me happy was the guy who interviewed him looked pissed and sounded pissed. It must have took ALL his strength not to punch him in the face right then and there. Kudos to him.

I think the interviewer was James Brown, a really good guy and a not one that will take any old answer.

Vick "dodged a bullet" as far as his 'career' goes.
None of us wold ever get a chance to redeem ourselves as MV has.

Now, what I would like to know is how many other players knew he was up to something like the fighting. I know some of his cohorts also went to jail, but how many of his teammates knew?

Having played sports a little, I know that if someone has a little side thing going on, no matter how legal, or illegal it is, someone else on the team knew about it, and as in all sinking ships?

THe rats get off board as soon as the darn thing starts to go under.

OK-is there anything else this sick scum of the earth can do to make my blood boil???

BANKRUPTCY??!!! But I'm so glad he gets to keep one house and an SUV!

[pomtzu]

Compared to what he was earning before he got caught, and what the Eagles are now paying him, he must feel like he's at minimum wage! Don't you just feel so sorry for him??? Poor baby!

He deserves to be living in a dog kennel - and a dirty one at that!

Guess you know that this former Eagles fan won't be watching any of their games this season - whether scumbag Vick gets to play or not!

Go Patriots!

God, I wish I hadn't read that article.
