Guilty in Public Opinion!

I know that Michael Vick is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, but the court of public opinion is very different. Today, Nike suspended their Michael Vick products and Reebok will not sale his replica jerseys. This is a major deal because Vick is one of the leading jersey sold in the NFL. I know we sometime feel it is unfair to do this without his day in court, but we often find someone guilty before a trial.
OJ Simpson. Barry Bonds. Ray Lewis. Michael Jackson.
These are just a few people who have been found guilty in public opinion without being convicted in a court of law.
I believe that Nike and Reebok are making the right decision. I believe that Michael Vick should also be suspended without pay, but he is still getting paid for doing nothing for the Atlanta Falcons.
