Us choosing not to pay to watch him play, or buy his products, is ruining his life?  Companies responding to our desire to no longer associate with him, and thus no longer giving him millions simply for use of his name, is ruining his life?

Or are the consequences of his own actions ruining his life?

The feds have a 95% conviction rate.  This guy is guilty as can be and dumber than that.

From the guy who said bonds never tested positive.

And he who smelt it dealt it.

That's right... Bonds never tested positive.  He sure as hell did it but so did most of MLB in those years.

Let's not compare drug use to the type of animal cruelty in that indictment.

The ref scandal actually is worse, but it's really not, because no one gives a crap about the NBA anyway.

geomartin:
If we can get back to Mr. Vick for a minute...He is a representative of his employer, the NFL, and his contract likely has morality clauses in it that would allow the NFL to suspend him without pay or even fire him prior to a criminal conviction based on the video and alleged gambling alone.  I wouldn't be surprised to find that his career is kaput!  Especially in light of the league's announced determination in the off season to reign in unruly players and make examples out of as many as it takes to bring order to off field antics.  I believe they are truly tired of star players being gunned down in boobie bar parking lots or spending the off season in jail.

I put $100 down that he never plays in an NFL game again.

There hasn't been any "black leader" willing to attach himself to Vick, but there's plenty of morons around this country willing to believe Vick is being singled out for being black.  Nevermind the fact they're willing to overlook the fact that if these stories that've come out prove to be true, he's a scumbag jerkoff the likes of which you rarely, if EVER, hear about on the nightly news.

I'm betting there's still people who are amazed that there's actual dogfights that go on in this country.

The b-ball ref thing revolves around betting on games, some of which he was a part of.  The Vick fiasco revolves around a LARGE group of --bags of cream-filled twinkies-- mistreating animals, involved in criminal activity with animals, and behaving in a manner that damn near defies belief. 

When comparing the scale and scope of the two topics, I don't see how a single person (or at the very least, FAR less people) involved in criminal activity is far worse than a group of people involved in SEVERAL criminal activities.

Tommy's up for gambling.  I'll just stick to hoping Vick sees the inside of a 5x7 for eleventy years and/or gets equal treatment - the same as he saw fit to give those animals.

It's amazing out of this whole thread you chose to grab that one little bit of info and make a point of it. I addressed what he said real quick and really did not care about it.

What's amazing is that you haven't discounted, nor defeated, any of the points I brought up.  What's even more amazing is that you seem to think it's "one little bit of info", while you had more than just "one little comment" on the subject.  The final kicker in the festering pile of "amazing" is that you're so blind that you haven't realized that I (me, dk, drewkaree, whoever/whatever) wasn't the person who brought up the fact that you crapped all over something with your inanity and thick-headedness, it was ANOTHER member here, and that repeatedly, your stance on betting is proven again and again to be nothing more than foolish machismo that has little basis in what you view as "fact".

I've taken a point you STILL can't grasp and attempted to make you understand via osmosis - beating it into your head so only the truly daft couldn't pick up on it.  It's damn near laughable that you - someone so obstinate that repeated demonstrations of the point can't penetrate your skull - view this as "bad feelings", while STILL going on about how "if you look at it, it's THEIR fault".  You STILL don't get it, and the only person with "bad feelings" seems to be the one wanting to blame OTHERS for what a majority of people have spoken up about.

We WILL go on with a league, whether you're in it or not.  You're thinking far too highly of yourself, given the time frame you probably can't seem to keep track of.  Given the fact that I wasn't the one who stated that you ruined the experience for them, methinks you'll have a hard time with the facts I just tried jamming into your earhole since you seem to be under the impression that it was my point.  You're the TA Pilot of betting.  Congrats :applaud:
