Online Petition Demands Michael Vick Not Be Allowed In Pro Bowl

On Monday, Tabella explained his opposition to the inclusion of Michael Vick in the Pro Bowl.

“The NFL has a responsibility to the youth of this country by setting an example of good sportsmanship both on the field and off the field. By honoring former football players that have a history of unmentionable acts of cruelty, the NFL is conveying the wrong message and to fans and youth.

Many football players that have been involved with domestic violence are not being considered for this honor nor should a former player that is responsible for killing dogs and committing acts of animal cruelty.

 
Just because you spent time in prison for sick acts does not mean that you should be forgiven. Anyone that kills a child or animal should not be considered for any honor.

 
The smaller the victim, the bigger the crime.”
