Vick -- Out of the Doghouse "Any Day"

Michael VickMichael Vick is just days away from the sweet smell of freedom -- the kind you find at a half-way house.

Vick's lawyer told a Virginia bankruptcy judge this morning he expects Vick to be released to a halfway house "any day" -- which means he could be out from behind bars several months before the end of his 23-month prison sentence at Leavenworth.

Vick could end up serving the rest of the term in Newport News, Va.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons would not confirm the early release plans, but his lawyer seems pretty damn sure of himself.

Think he has plans for the Super Bowl?

61. .........Lynnette...................Vick did these things for years, before the SIX years of, "Bad Newz Kennels"...............Vick chose to do all the things he did...........If he chose to do them, and told all the lies to hide them, you would have to call that a choice............You didn't know the "real" Vick before the story started..........Few people did....................Now YOU are making a choice............to ignore the real Vick that has been shown to you, by all the media, legal briefs, and confessions................The only difference now, is that he will be much better at hiding things, than ever before................I assume you would forgive him, as if nothing ever happened, no matter how many years this went on?

62. Race and religion don't matter -- when you're a sick bastard who abuses women, children or animals you're a waste of breath. I have a couple of rescued Dobermans and a Rott/Dobie cross, all formerly abused, who would LOVE to meet his ass. Its too bad that money and fame weren't enough and he had to show what he really was, a sick low-life loser all the way. I cannot believe he's changed. If anything he's probably angrier than ever and will take it out on anyone or anything he considers weaker than himself.There's a special place in hell reserved for him and all others like him.

63. I hope that somebody treats him like he treated those poor animals. I would love to see him have his teeth surgically removed like poor Georgia did. It absolutely makes me sick! If he had any good in him at all he would donate even more money to the Best Friends society than he was already ordered to do! He is an absolute piece of dirt with no compassion at all.

64. to "justsaying" you're a f****n idiot. Why would you even pull out the race card here??? It has nothing to do with anything. Has he been in jail for 10-20 years??? NO. He's not even serving the full term that was given to him! I'm SO tired of people pulling the race card when someone who's anything other than white does something STUPID and ILLEGAL and get's in trouble for it. NEWSFLASH, he broke the law and then lied about it, dumbass. He deserves whatever he gets.

66. I just have one thing to say..., if you were in his position would you want forgiveness? Or would you want to be condemned by every sorry idiot who wants to spotlight you. One more thing, clean up your own lives before pointin fingers at someone elsee and there sins...

67. RE: Max61 at 2:30 am

I am not in position to forgive him for anything. He's not seeking my forgiveness.

68. I think is a total P.O.S I don't understand how anyone can do that to an animal. I hope he has learned his lesson (only time will tell). Those poor animals didn't have a choice. I am an owner of this breed and they are a wonderful dog. People take advantage of thier tenacity and their willingness to please and it's a shame. Someone in his position could have done so much for this breed.

69. It's funny that Micheal Vick is crap, but Casey Anthony tired fire to her little girl and everything is cool. I get it. Kill a dog and you should die, kill little kids and make a better world. That's why we're in the predicament that we're in. He did the crime and he paid the time, let it go!

70. i don't agree with what he has done. Nor do i agree with alot of things that people do. But, every person on this earth have done something that another person may perceive as terrible. Dog abuse is wrong. But every person deserves a second chance in life. i'm sure PETA with be protesting everything he does. But PETA protests everything. Every one will doubt everything he says, You don't have to forgive him or forget what he has done, Just let the man live the best he can. That people is all we can ask for Is to try our best and live the best we know how

71. This isn't a race issue, so all you people who say whitey is condemning him for his color, get over it! You have an African American/Caucasian president now, so get rid of all your race cards! Like Will Smith said, NO MORE EXCUSES BLACK AMERICA! No more whining about oppression and not getting a fair deal! Looks like he is getting out without being punished for his crime, so THERE YA GO! And you know, I agree with you guys. Forgive and forget. They were JUST dogs, right? Let a man treat his dogs any way he wants. And while we're on that, they should change child abuse laws too. Anyone should be able to do whatever they want with their own child. And why stop there? Just get rid of all laws, if I think someone deserves for me to take their money or kill their mother, what does that have to do with anyone but me and and THEM?
Yeah, let's not protect the innocent, lets let people like Michael Vick do whatever they want to do, because he is entitled. He is worthy of playing God with animals, women, children, senior citizens, whoever he wants, because he is MICHAEL VICK. Can anyone say AMEN?!?!?

72. Who cares about the freaking dogs? I guess dogs are worth more than humans nowadays. Animal cruelty? get the hell out of here, LIFE CYCLE...those things God made for us to eat or to use for something enjoyable. Animal freaking rights shut the F**K up and go do something better. Waste your time and money on things that matter like helping those in need....stupid PETA

74. I love animals as much as the next person,and can not understand why Vick did what he did,he obviously did not need the money that was made from this heinous act.I do hope he is remorseful and will do something positive for our 4 legged friends when he gets home.He is the one that has to answer for what he has done,on the other hand these disgusting people who do crimes against children usually only get about 10 yrs. or less,so I think justice was served as long as he makes an example of himself and rights the wrong he done...but I don't think he should ever be allowed to own another animal..EVER!

75. ...............Lynnette @ 10:35 am..........Any and all people who have read about the Vick story, have to decide whether they forgive his actions or not...........Or, just read the story, put the paper down, and forget it all, because it is of no interest to them...............So, the people who have no interest in the story, will forget it tomorrow.......Those with interest, will state, for or against, one way or the other.................You want to see him play football and return to the NFL...............THAT, is forgiving..................Again, YOUR choice.................Vick is what, 27 years old?..............After this amount of time, becoming a productive citizen is highly doubtful, for several reasons..............If you, are near that age, you already know that..............
