what makes this different from clinton portis showing off a sean taylor shirt the week before? $*!! the message on the shirts for a minute, it's the exact same thing otherwise. yet you don't see anyone talking about fining portis.
Good point.
it's obvious the league is saying "we don't want anyone to acknowledge michael vick's existence"
And another.

"existence"?i think that's a little toofar, but why would they want Vick to be recognized?

You can morally support a friend (Which is why I have no problem w/ the MV-7 thing), but by saying Free him, u support his actions... the NFL has every rightto say "Hey, that won't be happening here". The Sean Taylor thing is quite different. That man died , he didn't commit a crime and then go toprison for it.

It doesn't matter what image it puts on the league, it's free speech! They have the right to say what they want no matter if it's stupid or if no one agrees with it. The image of the NFL takes a second seat to the constitution.

No one took away their freedom of speech. They can do that same thing every week... but they are going to get fined for it.

Bingo. A forgive mike vick or somethign like that would show support and be appropriate. Free mike vick is foolishness
Not only are you trying hard... I bet you listen to rap and support some of the artist by purchasing the album... Some of those guys are felons. And Ibet you download music... illegally... You support that now don't you?Originally Posted by Chester McFloppy

The NFL can fine my@$!$ too, cuz I damn sure got a Free Mike Vick shirt 2.
Supporting a felon is the new thing in society?
Cool, someone hook me up with a Free Enron CEO's and Free Charles Manson shirts.
Except that you know nothing about free speech so quit citing it like you really understand the constitution. There are dress requirements in the NFL having to do with uniforms - isn't that a violation of free speech? The answer is no - it's not. They're a business and nobody is obligated to work for them, if you don't adhere to their rules stated in the contract that YOU sign they can fine you and even kick you out entirely... nice try though.
Thanks. I was cracking up at that free speech stuff. Glad some people came in here and got it worked out.
