someone....

Every team in the NFL should black list him.
He should never play in the NFL again.

I don't think he should, nor do I think he will ever play in the
NFL again. Of course I didn't think Vick would play again
either. However, the NFL screwed up in it's handling of this.
You can not punish somebody for an offense, then turn around and
punish them again because you didn't think you were hard enough
on them the first time. It's double jeopardy and that's against
the law.

While I think Rice's crime was totally wrong--but banning him
from working?? Do 'we' do the same to the millworker or
storekeeper or policeman with a domestic abuse issue?? taking
away their ability to earn a living seems to be nothing but a
trigger to bigger problems!!

There's no saying he can't earn a living. I think he has
forfeited the right to earn millions of dollars playing a game.
Let him get a real job like the rest of us. That should be his
punishment.
But it's moot for now. A team has to show interest in him before
he can actually play again.

Double Jeopardy only applies to the state or federal government,
not a private entity like the NFL. They can do whatever they
want.

Apparently not. He was reinstated was he not?

He was reinstated. But what team is going to take on the wrath
of women everywhere by signing him?

You must not have seen the "wrath of women" while he was playing
after the incident. Women were still wearing his jersey and
cheering him on. I never thought Michael Vick would play
either.

Then those women were idiots.
This guy should not get the support of ANYONE who has an issue
with domestic violence.
