Can this be true?

Today's email brought a message saying that Michael Vick has once again been chosen to endorse Nike.

Can this be true?

Does it matter to you? Will you stop buying Nike if it is indeed true?

Do you believe that Michael is truly remorseful about the unspeakable crimes he committed against dogs, or that he is only remorseful about being punished for them?

Tell me how you feel about this...

Yes Mike Vick should endorse Nike and I BELIEVE he should be allowed to play football without anyone shooten there mouth off about doing so. He spent his time in prison , and paid his fines just as our laws in this country suggests.
I dont condon what he did but life goes on and life is about forgiving. We all have a right to have a second chance.

Hi Jack - I'm sure you're right about forgiveness.

But I don't think people like Vick should be put in a position where they are "looked up to" by children.

He may be able to play ball. But he's no hero. (But then, I don't think being able to play ball makes Anyone a hero. To me, it's about how you live your life, not how you do your work. )

Blog Sisters chiming in. I have to agree with Marte. But I will still buy Nike, (if the shoe is on sale and it's the style/design i like best). So for the record, I'm disappointed Nike picked Mike Vick when there are many other more worthy athletes who do good work outside of their career.
