Bob Ryan weighs in on the Vick indictment. I believe his sentiments are widely shared.

As for me, while I believe deeply in the presumption of innocence, I also believe that the Atlanta Falcons and the National Football League have a big problem. Having read the indictment, it seems that the prosecutors managed to present a pile of evidence convincing enough to get a Federal grand jury to hand down some serious charges. Recent Federal cases have shown that, despite the wealth and power of the defendants, the prosecutors are certainly putting together strong cases (Libby, Black, etc.). Michael Vick will be a terrible public relations problem for the team and the league, and they may decide that just making him go away for a while is the best solution.
