After a year in jail and maybe another year to regain his form, he'd be an attractive prospect for a team looking to come in under salary cap. Sad but true.

Apparently, most commentators are talking about three things: 1. how bad betting is (in this case on dogs) 2. how his chances for getting picked up when he's out of jail are (good, but he'll make less money) 3. "no harm done as long as he doesn't turn in any teammates who bet on his dogs." Ug. They actually talked about the NFL’s reaction to Vick on the Daily Show last night.

Just think about football players being dogs fighting each other on the field [the ball is just a distraction], and all of a sudden we are all Michael Vicks, supporting this sport.
