Apparently he was presented a key to the city of Dallas this weekend in a ceremony.

A reporter who adopted on of his dogs tried to talk to him about it. The video cannot be posted on this forum due to the language from some in Vick's entourage.

One of these guys flat out says "we do not care about the dogs."

Vick was shown a picture of the dog, looked the reporter in the eye and walked off.

This is the same guy who as the video says recently said the Vick of 2006 would not listen to the Vick of 2010 but he has changed. Clothes maybe, not his spots.

So what's the problem here?

His entourage uses cuss language, and this means Vick hasn't changed?

A guy who adopts one of Vick's dogs wants to talk (what did he want to talk about) and Vick doesn't?

Vick doesn't want to talk about his past, one he's already addressed?

I'm not understanding what the issue is here beyond the information given.
 
Why would any city give Vick a key?

Shoot whoever thought this was a good idea.

Let alone Dallas.
Is this supposed to be a slap in the face?


Or maybe it was just a mix up and they only wanted Vick to sign the key??

Do a search, watch the video, and you tell me. You're a smart guy and I have no doubt you will see for yourself what the problem is.

Eagles quarterback Michael Vick didn’t attend the pre-Super Bowl party he had been slated to host, but he did stop by Dallas over the weekend, where he picked up a key to the city.

And now the mayor of Dallas wants everyone to know that he wasn’t involved in that decision.

“The action taken was not sanctioned by my office and was not an official ceremonial honor on behalf of the City of Dallas,” Mayor Tom Leppert said in a statement. “Official Keys to the City are presented by the Mayor, or an elected official designated by the Mayor, and reserved, on a limited basis, for an elected official of international status. Clearly, this was not the case in this situation and done without my knowledge or approval. Given these circumstances I have requested the City Manager propose guidelines to prevent this situation in the future.”

Yea, If I gave a dog killer the keys to the city, I would be denying any knowledge of it as well.
 
Whoever though it was great idea to give Vick a key to anything let alone to Dallas, TX. should be IMMEDIATELY fired.

Wait..


They should be marched out in front of the next Cowboys/Eagles game at Cowboys stadium and be LAMBASTED by the Cowboys fans and THEN they should be terminated.

Im certain he didn't know. He even goes the distance of describing policy while denying it.

He sounds sincere. This crap happens all the time in municipal and state government. If you dont' have clear policy and everything is stated in black and white, you would be amazed the backdooredness in some folks to get what they want.

Hos , you could post the video, have 10 eye witnesses , and Vick could admit to being scum and some people will never get it.
 
I was absolutely disgusted by Vick's involvment with the dog fighting ring, but I can't blame him for not responding to people who want to keep sticking it in his face. I don't know if he has changed or not, but trying to push it on him is not likely to be received with open arms, nor should it be.

WRONG. This is part of the price he must pay if he is going to really convince people he has changed. Its up to him to convince people- to do that he has to handle scenes like this. AND by the way having hangers on like that does not help.
 
Asking him for autographs, giving the key to the city to him, whats next - naming the humane society The Vick Institute for the Rehabilitation of Canines?

He could at the very least thanked the reporter for adopting caring for and providing a loving home for his dog. leave it at that and leave.


Why should he request the judge to allow him to own a dog if he cannot even show he cares for dogs?
