WOW horfin, great piece.

good points, and I have to agree. but why just me, everyone has to agree. if your employer even sniffs you being "involved" in something bad/illegal, they have that right to fire you, or ask you to resign. you of course have in turn the right to sue them for wrongful termination.

I'm willing to bet Vick won't be doing that against the NFL or the Atlanta Falcons.

so while Vick may end up innocent, or reprieved of all charges, if his employers, the Falcons or the NFL don't want him working for them, tough cookies. Just the way life is. anyone crying for Vick wouldn't say that with your own job on the line. Sure it isnt fair, but when was life fair, the guy had 100 million reasons to live a normal life. Didnt have to be perfect, go out to strip clubs, party, etc... but to have your "good" name within a mile of this mess is your fault, because its YOUR house and YOUR "friends".

like my mom always said, "how can you hurt something, that looks you in the eye as if it can understand you, and comes to you when you call it."

for all the ESPN media coverage and other media outlets exposing this story, everyone always forgets those cute little human interest stories, numerous of them every year from all over america chronicling dogs who save their owners, dogs who lick their owners awake in the middle of a house fire, dogs who save drowning children, even this dog last week down here in Texas I believe jumped in the way of a rattlesnake about to bite this little girl. I never got to see the followup story, but they said the dog was still under care for the poisonous bite.

any a-hole who says, "its not like he was fighting humans, its just dogs, whats the big deal?" is just that. an a-hole. lets stick you in a burning house with Vick and his cronies, or put you with a rattlesnake with only Vick between the two of you. Wanna bet Vick outruns any dogs getting away from those situations?

and yes its very logical to compare dog fighting to UFC. only theres a BIG difference between dogs forced to fight, and human beings (stupid big oafs) who volunteer for that punishment AND get paid for it. hook up last years UFC champion to a "rape stand" and treat him like one of those poor dogs, maybe that way the a-holes who want to use that stupid excuse can shut up then.

I swear people can be so stupid. whats sad is all those dogs Vick "allegedly" used to fight would probably "have his back" longer than his supposed "friends" who are testifying against him now.

I however cannot say that in all seriousness... When your ass is on the line (and I mean seriously on the line), who's to say which one of us would take the fall for our friends, or turn them in. I really couldnt imagine.

I guess that whats separates us from dogs. They don't think about it huh, they just lick your hands and wag that tail.

people can be so stupid.

(Btw I'm not a vegetarian either, I eat beef, and I love me some steak, but I've seen cows, they dont look at you like they understand what youre saying, and they certainly dont come to you when you call them, plus their shit really really stinks)

(And the way cows are slaughtered to be eaten, is designed to be painless, its illegal to make cows feel any pain before they are taken to be processed, so all your hypocritical hippies who eat meat but want to call out people disgusted with Vick and call them out for being against dog-fighting yet eating meat, go find some other excuse. torture and humane slaughter for consumption are two different things)
