Falcons owner: Vick should return to NFL
Falcons owner Arthur Blank told ESPN.com he wants to see imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick back in the National Football League but not in Atlanta. "He's written me and I've answered him," Blank said. "I certainly wish Michael well in the future. I believe in second chances. I believe in third chances. That doesn't mean I believe in forever chances. But I do believe he's capable of redemption and learning from his mistakes. We're committed to Matt Ryan. Even before his early success, we were committed to Matt Ryan. We made that decision when we drafted him. When you select someone in the draft at that level and pay him what we're paying him, you expect him to be successful and you expect him to be a team leader."

And Vick should be allowed in the league once he has paid his debt to society.

I don't want this derelict back in the league, two teams might sign this clown.
Dallas, where apparently there is no amout of trouble you can get in that they wouldn't sign you, and the Bungals, former home and current of home one man crime wave, WR Chris Henry and now former Chicago Bears RB and DUI boater Cedric Benson!

any taem..without a proven, pro bowl QB could use Vick. and thats a lot of teams...get over your hate man...fighting dogs does not make you a derelict...he broke the law...he was over charged because PETA decided to use him to further their political position..he is paying his debt...thats it..

Someone will give him a chance, but there will not be many talking to him. I think he deserves another chance

50yearfan...If I am not mistaken he owes the Falcons a portion of a bonus, something like 8 mil, which I do not think he has anymore

I think he should play in Canada. They would pay him well and welcome his talent. Get a book deal too, as stupid as that sounds, I know of millions of dumb Americans that would buy it.

His only hope is if the NFL expands to one of the "dog eating" countries.
