Should Vick be allowed back into the NFL? I say NO!
Let's look at this two ways - should he vs. will he. As previously stated, Vick should NOT be allowed back into the NFL. Now, now...those of you shouting, "he's paid his dues for what he did" just simmer down. I agree, he has paid his dues for what he did, and the fact that he wasn't miraculously put on probation within a week of showing up in prison is noble (well done US justice system, well done). But for the NFL bit: the league is a privilege, it's not a right. With the world following its super-stars' every move, and so many young eyes looking up to its players, the NFL needs to uphold a higher standard. A convicted criminal should never fit the bill. Vick does deserve a second chance. But that second chance is with society; he shouldn't be allowed back into the NFL.
Now, for the will he: Yes. Roger will let him back in, and it won't be long before Vick is a starter again somewhere. I can't and won't speak for what factors Roger will consider before he lets Vick back in, but reality is - Vick brings $$$ to the game. I'm not going to boycott his games (I love the NFL too much), and I'm sure he'll provide plenty of on-the-field entertainment. But if someone buys me a Vick jersey for Christmas...I'll kindly ask for a receipt.
