Every NFL fan knows players make mistakes and get suspended. Michael Vick, the star quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, has been the most recent one to do so. Vick is a great player, but has just pleaded guilty in his dogfighting case. The question is, will one of the NFL's best rushing quarterbacks ever get to play in the NFL again? In the instance of Ricky Williams, the answer was no. But Williams and Vick have done totally different things. Williams' problems were with drugs; Vick's with dogs. So maybe there will be totally different solutions, too.
New York Knicks Guard Stephon Marbury defended Vick a few days ago, saying "dogfighting is a sport, from what I've heard". Marbury also compared it to hunting, and I agree with him. Just because the animals that are being killed are dogs instead of deer, does that make it illegal? Both are animals. So what's the difference? Not much.

Hunting Deer and Killing dogs are two different things. It is sad that hunting has to be brought into this.
