He would have served less time than he was sentenced for if he had been more forthright in the wording of his statement when he finally did fess up and hadn't tested positive for the pot. Vick made lots of bad decisions by involving himself in dogfighting and lots more bad decisions once he was found out. Either he received really bad legal advice throughout the course of this or didn't listen to his advisors.

Would not more good be served if he were given probation and community service - i.e. go talk to kids about why you shouldn't do these things? seriously, he's lost a year of his precious few in his job.

I think this is sad all around. As I've noted to friends, I'd like to feel sorry for him, but I can't. It's not only because I cry when I watch "Animal Cops" ( I also eat meat in large quantities and own a couple of fox trimmed coats and leather jackets, too), but because if he had told the truth back in April, when his property was raided, he wouldn't be in this position now. The government went after him because he wouldn't cooperate when he was first busted (woe betide Barry Bonds). AND he lied to his owner (who had rolled him out in w heelchair after he suffered a season ending injury a few years ago), and to the Commissioner. Had he been forthright, the NFLwould have been behind him. PETA may think they have a good PR machine, but the NFL would have squashed those crazy screeching nutjobs. With one finger. He didn't give the NFL the chance to help. Maybe he would have gotten a season long suspension, certainly some jail time, (more likely probation)....but he wouldn't have been facing two years in prison, beyond broke, and state charges from a county I didn' t know existed until earlier this year (and I live in Virginia). I still laugh at the Falcons' misfortune, however. Great post. I think this is sad all around. As I’ve noted to friends, I’d like to feel sorry for him, but I can’t.
