Default Michael Vick

"What goes around comes around." Just heard Michael Vick has a broken hand. Hopefully it's the hand that tortured and killed defenseless dogs.

I'm watching the game at this moment and Vick is still out. He's done his time, returned to the game with dignity, and deserves to move on with his life without folks crying out for more punishment.

Default Little Red....

I don't think Little Red is going to shed any tears over Mr. Vick either.

Actually I don't believe in beating any animal, dead or alive.

Default Instant Karma for Vick

I saw Vick at a news conference today studded out with huge diamond studs in both ears whining and crying about being "hit" and he doesn't understand why this is happening to him and on and on. I never heard Steeler's Rothesberger whining at a press conference after a game when he's been unfairly hit numerous times and not protected as well as he should have been. Sorry I don't like Vick's "I am entitled" personality.

Ditto!

I know everyone here who loves animals feels awful about what he did but give it a break. He spent 1.5 years behind bars while some criminals who hurt people (and some manslaughter crimes) get less. Time to let it go.

I hope those of you that can't forgive never need forgiveness in your life or your family's life.

I don't want to wish bad things on him--those will happen or not on their own.

BUT, I think there is a difference between being "unforgiving" and having a right to say what we think is repugnant behavior by a "celebrity"--a person who is "celebrated" in the media, in front of our children and grandchildren.

ce·leb·ri·ty noun \sə-ˈle-brə-tē\

1: the state of being celebrated : fame
2: a famous or celebrated person

Default I make no apologies

for my feelings about Mr. Vick. If this is disrupting your game then don't read it. I would also like to add that if you can't be supportive about a thread you might want to consider being quiet!

What Michael Vick did may not bother you as much as it does me or others on this thread.... So ignore it so we can grieve for the dogs that were abused while Mr. Vick goes back to his old life. We don't believe that he is sorry for what he did... We believe that he is sorry for getting caught!

NO! I do not forgive him and I would wonder about myself if I did. I am a dog rescuer.... I am one of the people who works to try to place these abused dogs.

Many of you can be as ignorant as you want because you don't have your name or your pictures up here.... You just can't wait to jump on a thread and be as mean as you can be. I call that bullying... You don't even try to be funny.... You just try to be mean! You know who you are!

This is TOTV.... America's Friendliest Hometown??? Really???? Because I'm missing it!

Default Deperate for a hero

It sad to see people so deperate for a hero that they worship a man that beats dogs for fun. This is just further proof that the legal system in the US is broken. Michael Vick should have gone to jail for a long long time. I agree with some of the posters on here. A lot of highly intelligent people think that the justice system didn't protect against the cruel treatment of animals that couldn't defend themselves. Obviously your mothers forgot to tell you something. IF you don't have something nice to say - just shut the hell up.
