I agree with you Amanda, Vick is a low life loser. He probably started as a street thug, then some idiot saw him throw a football and signed him up. People say he gives alot to charities, when he gets out, he should give to all the animal rescue centers in his hometown. Thats the least he can do for all the pain and suffering he and his thugs put upon poor defensless animals. Dogs only want somebody to love them they aim to please, and to do what Vick and his people did to these poor babies is definitely horrendous. While he is in the slammer he needs to read some books on how dogs serve people, such as seeing eye dogs, etc. Yes, even pit bulls can be service dogs. We have a pitbull in our town that is a seeing eye dog. This dog goes everywhere with this blind man. I saw him in Petsmart the other day. All kinds of people approached this man and asked about the dog. He let them pet the dog, and that dogs tail wagged so hard he knocked some stuffed animals on the floor. So there you go Vick, better hope you don't lose your sight; might come back to haunt you buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!
I live outside the USA though I lived in there from 1979 to 1990, I go back from time to time to visit relatives. In other parts of the world people see animals in a different way than in America. In Florida if you kill a panther that crosses in front of your car you can end up in jail. Even if you tried to avoid killing it. Panthers are an endangered species and God forbide you have the bad luck of one of them crossing in front of your car in the highway in Florida. Jail time plus a fine... only in America...
My point? Some of you condemn what Vick did to those dogs, yet you want him to be electrocuted, drowned, kicked out of football. What kind of justice is that? When animals have more right than humans something is very very wrong. It's not right to kill dogs the way he did, but how many pets are "put to sleep" everyday in the USA? By the way, "put to sleep" doesn't sound as awful as "killed," but that's what happen to those pets... they are killed! And please don't tell that they are killed in a very "humane way."
These extreme reactions to actions like the ones by Vick show two things: 1) even though many would like to believe that humans can learn from their mistakes and change for the better, there are many who wont let persons like Vick back into society. 2) You are not that different from him because you want someone to electrocute him or drown him... the very actions you condemn him for doing to his dogs.
How many of you had turkey Thanksgiving Day? Or a BigMac this week? Or a steak recently? What about a tuna sandwich? Or chicken at KFC? Do you realize that in order for you to have that turkey two weeks ago that turkey had to be "killed"? What's the big diference between that and what Vick did? Did the turkey died happier than the dogs because he was killed more humanely? What Vick did was not right but it shouldn't mean that he cannot earn a living in the USA. He needs to work to make a living. If he is kicked out of the NFL, why would you allow him to work, say at McDonalds? Why it would be Ok to work there and not where he is good at... the NFL? Please, please, use common sense... unfortunately common sense is the least common of the senses... Fine him, use him to lecture others... help him to blend back to society, don't make a pariah of him.
DID YOU SAY YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY? WHERE ?SOME THIRD WORLD COUTRY WHERE ANIMAL CRUELTY AND NEGLECT ARE SO COMMON YOU JUST PASS ANIMALS IN THE STREET EVERY DAY AND THINK NOTHING OF IT? BULLFIGHTS DOG FIGHTING AND **** FIGHTING SO OF COURSE YOU WOULD NOT BE APPALLED BY THIS. BECAUSE YOU ARE USE TO LIVING LIKE A SAVAGE.LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT MICHEAL VICK. EVERY OPPORTUNITY NIKE ENDORSEMENTS NFL CONTRACT WORTH MILLIONS AND HE THREW IT ALL AWAY FOR SOME 20 THOUSAND DOLLAR OR LESS LITTLE MONEY HE WAS MAKING OFF THIS. HE WAS NOT DOING IT FOR THE MONEY. HE WAS DOING IT BECAUSE HE IS A SICK TWISTED INDIVIDUAL.WHAT KIND OF PERSON ANIMAL LOVER OR NOT CAN WATCH SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND SAY GEE THIS IS OK? NOW WOULD YOU WANT THAT TO BE YOUR CHILDS ROLE MODEL AND HOW ARE WE PUTTING THE THE LIFE OF THE DOG ABOVE A HUMAN? AS FAR AS I KNOW MICHEAL VICK IS NOT GETTING INTO ANY RING WITH HIS MOUTH TAPED UP HELPLESS SCARED FOR HIS LIFE YOU MORON HE GOT HIS THREE HOTS AND A COT IN LEVANWORTH. ALL IAM SAYING HE GAVE UP HIS RIGHT TO BE A ROLE MODEL FOR THE YOUTH OF AMERICA WHEN HE WAS DROWNING ELECTROCUTING AND SLAMMING HELPLESS ANIMALS TO THE GROUND.
I agree shawty how can 95% of these so called human put the life of a dog above a human and i bet each and every one of them have eaten more than there fair share of Defensless cows chicken lambs and its too late casue some of these ignorant ass folks have already came to the conviction that he's a monster
M.Vick;Hope to Never see you play football in the NFL.Look at all the people,kids and adults you let down.Just like Berry Bonds,you are a DISGRACE....Doug Faulkner...Gainesville,Ga.
MIKE HAS NO RIGHT TO OWN OTHER ANIMALS, FOR IT HAS BEEN PROVEN WHAT TYPE OF PERSON HE IS. HE SHOULD BE PUNISHED, ELECTROCUTION IS TO GOOD FOR HIM, DROWNING HIM WOULD BE ONLY ONE OF HIS JUST REWARDS. AS FOR LETTING HIM PLAY, DOES HE REALLY THINK HE WILL BE A FAVORITE AGAIN? SHOWS YOU HOW LITTLE HE KNOWS ABOUT THE HUMAN RACE. THERE YOU GO.......... HE'S A MONSTER.
It's amazing how no one is saying anything about the HOCKEY PLAYER that killed his TEAM MATE for DUI-and was allowed to continue to play and was not even criticized about his BAD BEHAVIOR...GET OVER IT PEOPLE...Vick has been humiliated enough!!! You're merely going off what the media is portraying...You don't take away a man's career!! He knows what he was involved in was WRONG...But what more do you think should happen to him...I love my dogs too...But I won't sleep with them...I won't kiss them in the mouth...and I surely wouldn't put them before any Human Beings...In reality I don't care how much of a human you think your dog is...it's value does not compare to the value of any HUMAN BEING!!! HOW MANY OF YOU OWN PITT BULLS....And were you aware that MICHAEL also (AND STILL) has cats and other dogs that he owns and does care very much so about!! No PITT BULL FIGHTING IS NOT RIGHT! BUT NEITHER IS DEER HUNTING AND BIRD SHOOTING! FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO PROTEST ABOUT...ALL YOU PERFECT PEOPLE WHOSE NEVER MADE A MISTAKE OR DUMB DECISION...WHATEVER...WATCH WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT PEOPLE...IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU!
He should not play and I wouldn't hire him to water my pets. He should go to prison. If he were anyone else and had no money, you can bet he would go to prison and be fined way beyond belief... I don't care if he were president of the usa, I'd feel the same way. He is JUST a football player, that our children look up to as a hero so he should be responsible for everything he does off and on the field. He chose to be in the public eye.
I think Mike Vick should only play if he survives a cage match, when he's thrown into a cage with many pitbulls, granted if his arms are still intact.... this **** deserves to FRY!!!!!...
All these people on here trying to bring him down after the man has obviously lost EVERYTHING should take a look in the mirror. The man was a GREAT football player no matter how different his style of play was. The only thing the man has left IS what he did on the field, don't take that away from him too!!
he should not play. he broke state and federal laws. he is a dog killer, and he should be fired from football. he also deserves a little time in prison.
He's got great talent for footbal. But he's also got time to serve. After that, if the league allows and a team wants to hire him, I'm not getting in his way.
uhh, no. It seems that you may have led a pretty sheltered life.
on my side of the tracks, I have seen too many people lose their jobs due to arrests, let alone convictions. So before you start running around with that "The Man Is Keeping Michael Vick Down" banner, I suggest that you do a little research and find out what happens in reality-land. If Michael Vick is such a good person... no nevermind, It is not needed for me to go there. Let's just leave it at, it is very common for criminals to have a hard time trying to find a job. sure is a shame that is blew his big chance. Perhaps in the next life he will make better choices.
I agree with you Amanda, Vick is a low life loser. He probably started as a street thug, then some idiot saw him throw a football and signed him up.

JERK...HE SHOULD PAY FOR BEING SO UNHUMAN TO ANIMALS...WE LOVE OUR DOGS

Hell no. He shouid rot in jail

Vick should pay the penalty, then get back to playing football.
