Vick is overrated anyway and will never lead a team to the Superbowl. He is versatile and rather mobile, but a terrible passer. A running QB will never lead a team to the big dance or I should say win the big dance. He is just another extremely gifted athlete with no brain.

Seriously, Is this really news? I mean don't get me wrong I am against cruelty to animals and all but do we really have to blow this out of proportion. Vick isn't a model citizen but he can't be crucified for something like dog-fighting in one of his many houses (something that can easily be concealed and isn't exactly a hot button issue). If it was drugs or something of that severity it would be one thing but from a legal standpoint i am pretty sure nothing is going to touch him. From a moral standpoint with regards to Vick, i think this is a non-factor. Sure u can criticize him for the giving the finger or the mysterious bottle, but why should he blamed for the character flaws of his family members. They always say u can pick ur friends but u can't pick ur family. I think there are many more important issues with regards to football. How about the fact that one of the guys we are looking to draft admittedly smoked weed? Should we not draft him now b/c he has "character issues"? I think thats complete BS.
Having a problem with reading? They went there for DRUGS! A NON-ISSUE, not sure what planet your from.....?
However, in most civilized rural/non-rural areas that I know of , this a HUGE ISSUE! You can pick which drug dealing family member thug lives at your house and be aware of whats going on (DOG-FIGHTING, COCK-FIGHTING, DOG RAPE STALLS,DRUG DEALING, etc.), as he WAS due to being seen at this home of his frequently.
Oh......but I'm sure he had NO idea...right?

If he used dogs for fighting, he should be locked up for a long time. It's sick and cruel.
Why the Falcons let Schaub go is beyond me...they're obviously going to need a replacement for Vick sooner than later. Maybe they'll trade up and get Brady Quinn. If they weren't considering it before, they should now.
Mike Vick is a disgusting person.
Are we really going to go through this idiocy yet again (see the water bottle threads)?
You know Mike Vick about as well as George Bush. Let me know how many people your foundation asists every year.
Since there are no facts or charges out there, everyone should probably worry about our draft instead of displaying their jealousy of a professional athlete.

Wasn't there something about Vick having been arrested for trespassing recently, or something like that?

Michael Vick In Airport Water Bottle Incident - January 18. 2007 (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2007/0118071mexico1.html)Wasn't there something about Vick having been arrested for trespassing recently, or something like that?
I do not know about that. But I believe he was caught smuggling drugs into the country in a hide away container located on one of his personal belongings.

Why do people hate Vick so much? I always wanted him to succeed, and think it's sad that he hasn't become the player we all hoped he would be. I still remember watching him during the 02 season with my jaw on the floor.

I don't hate Vick. I'm a long time VT fan (14 years). I too want to see him successfull, but I will not ignor his mistakes.
