Why are people more sympathetic to vick than plax?

Really i dont get it. everyone wants a 2nd chance for vick, and all these players are sticking up for vick but nobody is speaking up for plax. plaxs crime didnt hurt anyone else and was an accident. vick's crime was organized. imo plax is getting screwed.

Probably because Vick has been dragged through the mud by the media while also serving almost 2 years in prison. Plax hasn't done anything really to deserve that kind of response IMO.

Vick served his time, paid his dues. The guy should get a second chance if he is remorseful, and so far it seems like he is.

hmm, I don't think anyone is more sympathetic for Vick over Plax in the first place

if you shoot yourself in the leg while wearing sweatpants at a club, you dont deserve any sympathy

i hate what vick did, but he served time and he only did that one bonehead thing, plax is a moron who constantly gets in trouble and he is not a team player

you dont see it? a bunch of players have spoken up for vick, even our own tko spikes on his twitter page.

i dont care wether plax is a team player or not, fact is what he did wasnt nearly as bad as what vick did. and if you honestly telling me vick is more of a team player even though hes not even a passing qb, and after thd weed bottle incident at the airport and ron mexico incident and all plax has done until legshot gate is break a few team rules... plax is a winner, and caught the gw td vs the 18-0 pats. vick hasnt done s**t.

I agree, but both of them are equal in the low class thug category. I do not understand how these guys don't surround themselves with better people.

Vick led his team over victory over the green bay packers at lambeau( never been done before prior )

yeah it was stupid but it was still only an accident. it was on him for self defense after his teammate was robbed at gunpoint. the gun was licensed in florida and a gun licensed there is legal in a lot of other states too. should he be at a club in thd first place, no, but almost every athlete has so give him a break.

and imo if you kill dogs by electrocuting them, beat them to death, shoot them, and have them raped you dont deserve any sympathy whether you paid your debts to society or not, and i am still willing to give him a 2nd chance. but plax might do more time for a crime where nobody got hurt than what vick got. sorry but thats f**ked up.
