Well, I'm treading onto delicate ground here, but here I go. There is a problem with pro sports, especially the NFL, not taking domestic violence problems seriously and sweeping them under the carpet. On the other hand, part of the issue is that there is a fight between a player and a spouse or sometimes a fan/heckler and there can be alcohol and/or drugs involved. The woman will strike first and the player will hit back. But the player is 210 pounds to 260 pounds of game-tested muscle and the player hits a lot harder. The woman gets knocked out. That involves one bad moment and may not be typical behavior. Vick did horrendous things over years, many, many times. He didn't just kill losing dogs, he tortured them to death.
