OK, here's the thing, Vick did what he was supposed to, he served the time for his crime. Right now, he should be in PR mode 24/7, he is winning, and the world often forgets all your past mistakes when you win. So why would you draw attention to your past crimes like this? It couldn't possibly help you.

"All things considered, it is a very small price to pay, especially compared to the suffering endured by the dogs who were abused and killed in the Bad Newz Kennels."

There's something to this, he is a risk actor around dogs, his past proves this. He did serve his time and he should let it go there.

My daughters miss having one, and that's the hardest thing: Telling them that we can't have one because of my actions," Vick said in the interview.

I think/hope Vick is being sincere in the gesture/thought he is trying to express, but I also think it is poor judgment on his part to even approach this topic at all. Buy a goldfish instead
