    Terrell Owens(notes) wants Michael Vick(notes) to be reinstated immediately by the NFL, and said any extension of the quarterback’s suspension would be similar to “kicking a dead horse.†Speaking after the Buffalo Bills training camp practice Sunday morning, the star receiver referred to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell’s handling of Vick’s status as “unfair.†Owens also lobbied to have more of the league’s high-profile players voicing their opinion in support of Vick and asked the NFL Players Association to become more involved. “I think he’s done the time for what he’s done. I don’t think it’s really fair for him to be suspended four more games,†Owens said, referring to reports that the NFL is considering to further punish Vick. “It’s almost like kicking a dead horse in the ground. … The guy’s already suffered so much. And to add a four-game suspension on a two-year prison sentence, that’s ridiculous.â€

    I also agree with him about Vick. I wonder what he thinks about the fact the Stallworth may be able to play this season, to me that would be bullcrap.

    I think he is saying what many are afraid of. It doesnt matter whether any of us agree with him or not. This is once where I think players should be speaking their minds and he seems to be only one that is man enough to speak up.

    I will say that TO didn't just come out with this, he was asked his opinion and gave it. John Wawrow skews it a bit.
