Mike Vick Cancels Appearance on Oprah- Not mad at him tho. Yall know O LOVES dogs!

In her quest to close out Season 25 with a bang, Oprah offered Mike Vick the opportunity to solidify his comeback in America’s hearts and minds.
And this fool is reneging on his acceptance of the invitation.

Of all the moves Michael Vick has made, this is one of the more curious ones.

He has bailed on Oprah.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback — the NFL’s comeback player of the year — canceled the taping of an interview (subject matter: doing time for his part in an illegal dogfighting ring, his return to the NFL, his work with the Humane Society and his future) — with the queen of gab.

“After careful consideration, I will need to postpone the taping of the Oprah Winfrey interview. I admire and respect Oprah and hope to be able to participate in an interview in the future.”
There’s a report out of Philly that quotes sources saying the Eagles pressured Vick to cancel. Maybe he decided it was a bad idea to do the interview so close to the Westminster dog show. Maybe it’s connected to getting the Eagles’ franchise tag.

In any event, given that her show is going off the air, a rebooking might not be likely. Joe Flint of the Los Angeles Times thinks Vick is making the right move in keeping a low profile. “Going on ‘Oprah Winfrey,’ though, to be given some sort of blessing by the queen of talk is too much too soon,” Flint writes. “Part of what Vick needs to learn and show is humility, and going on a popular TV show to say look at me now is not humble.”

What yall Think? Good or Bad Move?

I have to agree with his reasoning, too soon. There's a season for everything

The best move he made.. it would have been PR suicide!
I think it's too soon to risk it... He has done well gaining back some respect on his own, it can go either way with the O appearance. I think it's best to sit this one out for now. Right now he can't afford to go backwards which is a chance he would be taking if he appeared on Oprah.

Nope, he should go on Oprah & shed done tears. Let Oprah bestow him with some sort of blessing, so these white ppl can not ride him so hard!!! This is the same person who did a reality show on BET, insert cringe here, so what's so different about Oprah?!

I think that it is risky too plus oprah rating are falling she will ask all kinds of questions to get people to watch. That realty show he did was about starting over new not openng old ass scares like oprah would have done sh proble would have ask him about his herpes

I think it was a good move...besides he onlny postponed it, so it MAY still happen. He will need more time to prepare for questions that Oprah may ask him. These ppl kill me, worried about them damn dogs when you have UFC, fighting ppl but to kill each other, where knocking each other unconscious is the goal, but theyre right there cheering them on. Dog lovers who hate Vick need to go somewhere and suck a d***....(ahhh, that ish rhyme)lol
