This man is relying on prayer. Now, THAT’S funny. And keeping up a brave front for his mother. If he EVER thought of either God or his mother previous to this point, he most probably would not be in this mess he is in now. And he is in it, up to his chin and rising. And it looks good on him.

After he gets out of federal prison he might under an assumed identity play arena football in some jerkwater league if he is very lucky.

Do what you want, but I would only suggest that you think about the Duke/Richard Jewel cases before you post comments pronouncing his guilt and sentence him to death. Just a thought.

"This is really a dreadful story."

Yes, it is. And if you do a search including the words "football" and "dogfighting" you will find several articles that mention a subculture of this sort of thing, including dogfighting, in the NFL, i.e. the "gangsta" image. IMO it's disgusting.

If he is guilty.

There are Hell Hounds and then there are really pissed off Hell Hounds.

I would be interested to hear what similarities you see, when comparing this case to those.

Yesterday, I saw for the first time since this came out someone wearing a Vick jersey. Kid was probably 12-15. He had obviously worn it to school.

Last I heard, the Duke guys did not have an 18 page federal indictment against them, just a sleazy DA who was running for reelection.

Remember that the federal conviction rate is about 95%. Vick is guilty as sin.

A better analogy would be to the 2 fellas recently caught in CT after raping and murdering that family. Should we give them the benefit of the doubt too?

Ridiculous.

Not a chance in hades Vick!

Don't be so sure. Remember that people also thought that Latrell Sprewell would never play in the NBA again after he had been "banned" in 1997 for choking his coach.

The NFL had better clean up its act vis-a-vis dogfighting lest another case come public.

The NFL is a multi-Billion dollar business, but a few more cases like this and people WILL be turning them off on Sundays.

Whether it is immigration or dogfighting, good people will only tolerate so much.

He needs to hope for an OJ jury.

The evidence here is overwhelming, and the federal conviction rate is about 95%. Not to mention his best friend just flipped against him and is now on the side of the feds.

I’m not implying he is not guilty, I haven’t read the indictment that apparently you have.

and if he is found guilty I would agree with your prescription. Not quite “rediculous” but I get your point.

People who are accused, who look guilt, who aren’t in the end. Really just that simple.

This dirtball scumbag should be thrown naked and bound into a pit full of his own killer dogs.

If the Falcons take this criminal back into their ranks, professional football, like professional basketball, has demonstrated they no longer are fit sports for public support because of the cretins and savages they employ and promote as stars.
