Your long written monologue about Michael Vick and allegation that I "need to reevaluate what is important" was in response to a statement by me that the NFL doesn't have a thug problem because the number of thugs in the NFL is less than that of the general population and teams generally police themselves very well. I fail to see how, in any way, what you are saying addresses anything in my post.
I have no idea what the NFL’s crime rate being lower than the general population has to anything—even assuming it is an accurate statistic. I’m absolutely certain that a siginicant percent of crime perpetrated by NFL players hidden by out-of-court settlements that the public never hears about.
That being said, the NFL has no responsibility for rehiring a felon—none, nada and zip. The only rational reason for rehiring a felon is money—the NFL is counting on people’s natural curiousity to bring them to the stadium to see what an animal abuser looks like.
Meanwhile, you conveniently ignore all the other salient points I made about retreading a convicted felon.
Nice try. But you apparently believe that along with celebrity status comes a “get out of jail free” card.
