There is little doubt but that a tenacious prosecutor merely needed to persist and eventually the evidence against Michael Vick would be overwhelming. I imagine by now there is enough of it to convict him ten times over. If nothing else, Vick’s bank records would reveal the large checks he provided to fund the operation. That alone should guarantee a substantial jail sentence. What was this cruel and immature jerk thinking? Didn’t it ever cross his mind that the odds were against him? Sooner or later, the proverbial crap had to hit the fan.
The fans will never allow Michael Vick to return to football. He crossed the line of no return when he tortured helpless animal to death. A few nights ago the Houston Rockets guard Rafer Alston was charged with stabbing another man in the neck! Too many athletes are out of control. Professional sport teams have got to clean up their act. I believe some sort of tipping point has been reached—and many fans will no longer be as forgiving as they were in the past. This is especially true of parents.
