I, for one, have had enough of Mr. Vick and his antics.

Any thoughts out there?
 
This is a d_b. Different angle, sure, but same story. And there is this thread.

Is that in English?
Yes, it's English and done for effect. It's time to give it to the Herpes magnet the way he gives it to others. He's been getting a free pass to **** people for too long. I love dogs. I believe he knew what was going on at the house.
 
boots, we've been ragging on Vick for years.

Oh...so you meant "give it TO Vick ONCE and for all."

That changes things. Don't let a little grammar get in your way, bootsy.

I have a thread in the journalism side asking why the pit bull farm story is being buried in a lot of outlets.

Because we've generally come to accept that pro athletes from Vick to Joey Porter raise pit bulls. Even with it being a farm, the moment you heard about ailing dogs on the property, you knew what kind of dog they were talking about.

True, it's like flashers on a college campus.

But does the new NFL policy mmake it more newsworthy now? I'm guessing animals fighting to death for pleasure and betting is not the image the league wants.

Do NBA players do this, or are they more afraid of David Stern?

Devil, I'd get my ass offline if I were you and go get this great story you know is out there. This is your chance, son. Do not drop the ball.

Whydo you think it is being buried?
 
Apparently, many animal rights activists have had suspicions about Vick for years. I didn't know that, or know about all the reasons for their suspicions, but I heard some radio discussions to this effect last night

Because I no longer work at a newspaper. Let's just say that I am on the other side of the ball so to speak.

I am just asking why it was not getting better juice in the papers and broadcasts I have seen because if I was still editing a daily it would have had a much different placement then what I have seen.

The answer I am seeing is that it is happening so often, that it is not news worthy. If you would look at the timeline of my posts, you would see that.

My next topic for discussion is that since the NFL has this new image policy, do these numerous NFL players raising pit bulls for fighting take on a new light now?

are you really this stupid?
I'm as stupid as the stupid post you put on. Look if it's not about the topic, PM with the personal ****. Thanks.
 
If the property is owned by Vick he needs to be held accountable. I dont wanna hear the bull**** about "It was my family." **** that and **** you.
