NFL Indefinitely Suspends Vick

After pleading guilty to federal charges of dogfighting, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has suspended Michael Vick indefinitely and will reevaluate the quarterback's status after the legal proceedings come to an end. Goodell has also allowed the Atlanta Falcons to make claims as to recover the $22 million signing bonus on Vick's contract.

The NFL has acted correctly by indefinitely suspending Michael Vick. Instead of being the NFL's main attraction, Vick has become the main distraction during the preseason and would have taken headlines away from the NFL season if not dealt with.
