I almost traded for him this week. Vick is a monster in my 2 QB, 4pt passing TD/6 pt rushing TD league. He was instrumental in helping win my a championship in 2006 (right before being busted).
Personally, I'd forgiven him for what he did, but my wife snapped me back into reality yesterday. I mentioned that I was trying to trade for him and she reminded me that this is the guy who took a dog on a noose and repeatedly slammed him into the ground like a sack of potatoes in order to kill him.
She asked me a simple question, "do you really want to win with that guy on your roster?"
Forgiveness is a virtue, but as a pitbull owner and dog lover, I'm actually glad the trade fell through. Mike Vick is an amazing football player, but he can go win fantasy games for someone else. Karma is a son of a biotch. Don't be surprised to see Karma come back at this guy and your team if you play him.
Flame away as I know this post will piss many of you off and really has no basis on science or stats or trends or even logic, but I'm just saying. Dude wasn't just funding the dog fighting and abuse. He was right in the middle of it. I am willing to forgive, but it's really hard to forget.
