Michael Vick is the embodiment of what the american legal system dreams of. He committed a crime and has been rehabilitated into a functioning(and flourishing) part of society. Take a look at kobe byrant for his rape case, an act against another human that will likely fuck her up forever, or wikileaks julien assange's rape case (saying yes to sex with a condom and without are completely different things) and the way the public has dealt with those two. They've looked at the girls as lying hoes, while kept the heros. But vick went after dogs, mans best friend and somehow showed that raping a women is a lesser crime in the eyes of american media than having brutal dog fights. He fucked up, and what he did was fucked, but he didn't do it alone; Vick served his time(less than he should have, but more than bryant did or assange will[for rape]) and people should at least look at him with a clean slate, or look at the criminal system as fucked up.
Vick wins MVP or the supper bowl in the next two years and he'll have a disney movie.
