Klyd, I disagree. I think he should spend the rest of his life shoveling dogsh*t in a kennel. You phrased it exactly: "the calculated cruelty that Vick systematically inflicted". What evidence is there that his innate nature has changed? None. How does one who has engaged in such depravity time after time and only stops because they got caught change?

I think Vick is like Freddie C. as he expressed in his post above. Freddie uses the device of anonymity to rationalize not only his, but Vick's behavior. I'm sure that Vick did the same. Like Freddie, life is only useful to Vick. Beyond that, it has no meaning for them.
