accept full responsibility for his actions and the mistakes he has made." Mistakes?!?!?! Putting antifreeze in your windshield washer fluid is a mistake. Killing dogs in the fashion he did is disgusting and shows just what type of person he really is. An animal that should be in a cage.

Vick's attorneys hope to hear back from National Football League Commissioner Roger Goodell's office sometime Monday about Vick's career options, sources said.Should be a pretty short conversation.

Agreed.
Those type of "mistakes" are better defined as "criminal activity."

Lock him in a cage with some pits bulls and make him apologize face to face.

This is the sort of smarmy crap that drives me nuts. Forcing dogs to fight to the death is NOT a "mistake." Torturing dogs to death is NOT a "mistake." That we allow this sort of garbage talk to be honored in court is our shame and our country's failure. Mr. Vick should be sent to prison for the maximum allowable time for such an offense and upon his release never allowed within one mile of any sports arena.

Yeah, the NFL isn’t going to let Vick scramble out of this one. If he came clean with the commish back in April, that may have been one thing. But he is only sorry now that the Feds have him surrounded and backed into a corner. He will be in jail at least a year I would guess and his NFL ban will be longer than that I assume.

I wanted a trial. I wanted the gory details of dogfighting beamed into America’s livingroom nightly so no one could deny the ugly brutality of the ‘sport’. I believe that would have ended Vick’s career for good. No matter what the ‘deal’ turns out to be, Vick got off lightly.
To: mewzilla
Hopefully Vick's allocution will run a little longer... I'd settle for having a pit bull chase him out of the courthouse.

Check me, but just because he wants to plead guilty doesn’t mean the US Attorney has to accept it, does it?
I guess I am just confused by not hearing the the US Attnt’s office in response.
Personally, I’d like to see the US Attny decide (s)he wants to move ahead with a trial, slap Vick with RICO charges and drive the legal stake through the still beating heart of any future career he may have left.
In short, a deal doesn’t satisfy me....not that anyone *asked* me. :o>
To: goldfinch
The only problem would be that a lot of people would wonder if dogfighting is worse that rape. Rapists get off easier in the NFL.
It would be a debate we don’t want to have.
