How you figure that I mean he jsut served 19 months in jail and lost damn near everything he had. I'm sure any apology he comes up with will be sincere. The only protesters that are gonna make a scene is gonna be crazy ass Peta anyways.Quote:

He deserves another chance to rehab himself as any convict does. But he just doesn't have the kind of feelings about animals that some dog lovers do...Even rehabbed, he strikes me as the kind that will kick his dog in the head if the dog barks at the door bell..you either have feelings toward dogs or you don't...
and no matter what else happens, 20 years from now, when you think of MV, you'll always think about dead pit bulls first! :thumbsdown
the thing is it isnt his right to play in the nfl, he has the right to work again sure but the nfl has the right to decide who "works" in it
i think its ok personaly if he plays again but it isnt his right
heck no one knows if he even still has the skills to play at an nfl level, he may of not lost a step at all or he may not even make a team even if one gives him the chance
The man served his time.Personally i don't see sending anyone to the pen.for first conviction dog fighting.That said,he's done his time,loss his money,and loss his job.To debate whether he should be allowed back into the NFL is silly.He has a right to make a living,he has a right to do it in his craft.This is America,you do your time,pay your dues,go on with your life.All this he needs to show remorse,he needs to volunteer,is a bunch of silly bullshit.He needs to go back to his career,and on with his life.
I think public perception is irrelevant. These questions and points need to be directed towards Roger goddell. Jamal Lewis was convicted and jailed of federal drug trafficking and did not miss one game (even though goddell was not the commish at that time) Tank Johnson had federal weapons charges and served jail time (goddell was the commish) Now you have Dante Stallworth who has killed someone and he is going to jail for two months, and their not asking him to show"remorse" before he can come back into the league. Matt Jones was driving under the influence of cocaine and had more in his lap, he didnt have to show "remorse".
Because killing animals is great than killing human being's didn't u know that?Quote:

I love animals. I live trap, and take ants out of the house vs. killing them. Dog fighting is not only reprehensible, but I feel that taking the life, or doing horrible things to an entity that cannot defend itself is ghoulish.
With that being said, let the guy at least attempt to reset, and hopefully change his life around.
