Vick and his money

Michael Vick - the dog killer - appropriately won a trial case today against the team that formerly/currently employs/ed him. The Atlanta Falcons were seeing to get Vick's signing bonus back from his most recent contract extension he signed, which was over $20 million.

Frankly, I deplore what Vick did, and he's always been an overrated player in the NFL, but when you sign a contract with a player, you are doomed to that contract and that's the way it should be. If teams can give signing bonuses and then get the money back when a player goes ape-shit, where's the accountability for their bad judgment?

Vick signed that deal in good faith. The Falcons signed that deal in good faith. The Falcons clearly didn't know Vick was killing dogs, but they still don't deserve to get that money back. You made a dumb fuck decision, you pay the price.
