Re: Vick and gambling
Great point. It's so sick that he makes that assertion presumably to show he's not such a bad guy since he didn't gamble he just tortured and murdered dogs. The Daily Show had a good satirical piece making the same point.

[/ QUOTE ] The commissioner made it clear that Vick would not be allowed to return to the NFL if he either gambled on the fights or directly facilitated any gambling. It is ironic that Vick is now in a position where he can confess to dog killing and torturing to his heart's content, but has to remain steadfast and defiant on gambling.

Re: Vick and gambling
Actually Vick is admitting to putting up purses in the dog fights, but not taking the winnings. He's admitting to agreeing the dogs be killed, but not to killing the dogs. I'm sure if you asked if he smoked Marijuana, he'd say he smoked Marijuana, but didn't inhale. I'm not defending him, he deserves whatever punishment he gets and more. It just sounds like you guys are trying to say he's more afraid of admitting to gambling than killing the dogs. His lawyers are trying to set it up so that it can be a grey area on all accounts.

[/ QUOTE ] If he admits that he gambled on it then his football career is over. His lawyers knew he wasn't going to get off the hook on everything, so it was best that he admit to killing the dogs, do minimal jail time, and then come back and have a chance to play again. I guarantee you there will be a team that will take the chance on him when he comes back.

Re: Vick and gambling
Thre only way a team will pick him up is if the NFL lets him play again. It is not up to Vick or a team.
