Only the Boston Herald's sports columnist Gerry Callahan
could tie the indignant response over the NFL return of Michael
Vick to politically correct eco-crazies, and
make them both look foolish.

You hate Michael Vick now for the same reason you drive a
Prius or ask for paper when you really want plastic: to show
you care. You care more than I do. You care more than your
neighbor with two SUVs and no recycling bins. You care more
about the earth, the air, the water, the children, and of
course, lovable, huggable, innocent little puppy dogs.
Let Michael Vick back in the NFL? What are you, some kind
of savage? He killed Marley! He killed Scooby! He killed that
whole Hotel for Dogs! And then he lied about it! Which was, of
course, starkly different from most guys who are accused of
running dogfighting rings. Usually they come clean at the first
sign of trouble.
The whole thing is worth pasting here, but I can't do that.
