Yesterday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced that Michael Vick was conditionally reinstated:
Vick can immediately take part in preseason practices, workouts and meetings and can play in the final two preseason games — if he can find a team that will sign him. A number of teams have already said they would not.
Once the season begins, Vick may participate in all team activities except games, and Goodell said he would consider Vick for full reinstatement by Week 6 (Oct. 18-19) at the latest.
Vick just finished serving 18 months in prison for running a dogfighting ring out of his home in Virginia.
People clearly have all kinds of opinions on this one. Feel free to share yours here. Will anyone sign him? Does anyone care anymore? What kind of bad publicity (if any) could this bring to the team willing to take him on?
