The only thing about this argument is we are now what 5 or 6 years into his reinstatement and this has never ever been a reported issue anywhere... heck in a few of those locker rooms he was supposedly one of the better influences... The guy was an *******, maybe he still is, but he paid his debt and got his second chance... whether he is signed or not wont change the past and it wont save a single dog anywhere. I see a lot of moral outrage over long spilt milk.

not a chance. these are professionals, they'll get over it. if someone wants to make a problem out of it, I'm sure it'll get hashed-out in-house with the quickness. could not be less worried about that, quite frankly.
even IF
why risk it?
it isn't like Vick is a backup saviour
even if a fan doesn't understand dog lovers hatred for the man
why risk even the slightest bit of trouble when you can pick up a backup come final cuts
arguably equal value
AP beat a three year old kid. A three year old kid has barely any sense of consequence. That has nothing to do with discipline. One man on the team has a TV show dedicated to killing animals for sport. Another man did something very cruel and wrong to dogs for sport. He paid for it with his freedom, his reputation and his money. If you can't make a connection between pure trophy hunting and animal cruelty, I can't really help you.
I also have no interest in Rice or a certain ex 49er for the record either...

looks to me like our front office/coaches don't agree with this assessment. I'm sorry this pisses you off so much, steel
As someone who lives in Philly. I heard all the radio sports talk, news...etc when he came to the Eagles right after his release. Most of the city, friends swore off the Eagles. "F them and Vick" was the point made for the most part. Slowly but surely things changed for most, not all, but most.
He was a model citizen out here. Attending all kinds of events in the inner city talking to youths about what he did and how dog fighting is bad...etc etc. did he fruely repent. I don't know. But he talk the talk.
I think he is a piece of **** and rather not have him. if we do, I hope he never sees the field and is cut right before we win the SB.

I dont really think there will be a locker room issue. most of these guys work out, socialize and are friends if not friendly off the field regardless of what teams they play for..
Not a new stance for me, so not pissed. Just simply despise the man and wish him on any other uniform other than the team I love.
No, but there are reasons animal shelters don't allow black cats to be adopted during the month of October.

Boykin didn't seem to have anything bad to say about Vick. I'll take him for his word.

I got your back on this
I'm a dog lover, and I have no issue if they sign him.
If the last month or so hasn't given everyone a little perspective, I don't know what to say. We have Planned Parenthood dissecting live babies, and we will get all hot and bothered over a guy who fought dogs and if the Steelers will sign him?

This (ten characters)
a friend and fellow Steeler fan just told me that Vick and Tomlin are from the same neighborhood and their families are tight....
jusssst sayin'.
jusssst sayin'.
Bottom line. The Steeelrs have two viable QB's in camp. Boyd couldn't even rate playing in a preseason game. So if someone has a list of players they would prefer over Mike Vick I'd like to see it. But waiting till cutdown or making a trade really aren't viable options.
Maybe they should just call Kordell.
fought dogs?
killed dogs over and over and over and over again
the act of betting and fighting
is minor in comparison...........

why isn't it?
I just threw up in my mouth.
I am not going to spit it out quite yet as I want to pair it with the nauseousness
that's overtaking me at the moment.............
As supe would say, swallow it!!!!
