Poll: Can Eagles Win the Super Bowl this Season?

You need another option on this poll: "Not going to jinx it!"
And by it I mean the chance of even getting to the Super Bowl.

As long as they have an abuser on their payroll bad things will continue to plague Philly.

So slyfox, you don't believe in allowing people to atone for their sins, pay penance (which in this case was substantial, both money and time), and then being allowed to move forward?

@An interested bystander - Move forward? Really? When it comes to Vick, not on your life. A 2 year old child, of course. His "penance" was nowhere even close to what should have happened to him. He should know the difference of right and wrong, good and bad. He did not and still does not. You cannot change your inner feelings when it comes to his thrill he acheived with his abuse. It's his high. It will never go away. He will never change. Ever. Money? Never enough for this bastard. Time? Never enough. Then how is he treated? Like a hero? That will certainly teach millions of kids across this land. Doesn't matter what you do, what the rules are, what laws are set, as long as you pay your "penance" then get slapped on the wrist you may proceed and be rewarded greatly.

$100 million in lost wages, 21 months in federal prison and filing bankruptcy isn't enough, you call it 'a slap on the wrist?' Are you also aware that he's paying back creditors that were in the bankruptcy out of his current contract, even though he was not required to do so?
What he did was heinous, but to say he only got a slap on the wrist is asinine.

slyfox is right! We should totally do away with the judicial systems, jails and the like. Since she has proven that there is no such thing as learning from one's mistakes there is no reason to have punishment!!
