Michael Vick has learned his lesson. We should all just move on. He paid for his crimes.
That's true, he did pay for the horrible crime of racketeering, which somehow equates to him realizing that torturing pit bulls and putting them into the ring with family pets because he thinks it's funny to watch the pit bulls kill them. But yeah, he's good at football. Roman Polanski is great at making movies. Thank goodness people who are good at one thing don't have to actually ever learn about different things.
As the biggest bleeding heart for animals you're likely to read on a sports blog, you'd think I would agree with Mark Buehrle's recent comments about how
something bad needs to happen to Michael Vick. But, funny thing.
Today's Dugout follows.

BuehrleBrawl: he mistreated and brutally murdered a bunch of dogs for the amusement of him and his friends |

BuehrleBrawl: Hunting? Are you serious? Hunting is a sport. |

BuehrleBrawl: and more than that, it's about friends and family... we all get together, dress up in camo and blaze orange, head out into the woods and drink a ton of beer |
 |
BuehrleBrawl: then we shoot a deer with a rifle when he isn't paying attention. That is a sport. |
