I think the lack of responses shows this is a touchy subject.

I think that if Little wasn't a Ram we would hate the guy because of what he did. Alot of NFL fans (well, most NFCW rival fans) that know what he did really dislike him because of it and I'm sure it doesn't help that he's a good player as well.

But that being said I think it's totally unfair to compare Vick to Little. I think the national response in Vick's case shows you how atrocious and calculated his crimes really were. Like you said, Little didn't mean to do this and I'm sure it haunts him every day of his life. Vick totally enjoyed what he did and I guess found some entertainment value in it and will probably never regret it, except for the fact that he was caught.

On the grand scale Little's crime was more costly then Vick's. An animal's life should never be held in the same regard as a human's.

What I personally look at is wether the person meant to do what he did and wether he is truely sorry for it or not. Little is a good person who made a terrible mistake that cost a life. Vick is a morally corrupt human being who happily commited his crime and ovbiously saw nothing wrong in it.

In essence, I guess I can forgive Leonard because he's a good person who didn't mean to hurt anyone. But then again, I'm a Ram's fan, so I'm not sure how valid my veiw is.
