If you factor in the potential backlash because of the animal cruelty aspect. Why would the NFL take a chance with this guy? Does the NFL need Michael Vick? I'm sure the only reason this guy even gets a shot is because of the players union. He had his chance to make million and millions of dollars and he blew it. Too bad so sad. Why should anybody outside of Mike Vick's world care?
