Michael Vick, it's 4th & oh so long...
Aug 13, 2007 | 7:58PM | report this

Well, well, well.  Michael Vick’s other co-defendants are finally rolling over.  What, it took less then a month?  Yes, I received your “you are an ####” & “you suck #### because you are a Fed and are racially profiling” emails and just ignored you all.  Some wrote to “get off his #### and let the justice system decide;”and some wrote “what’s more important an animal life or a human and have we stooped that low?” 

 

It’s has been about a month give or take a few sleepless nights for Michael Vick and now, the other two co-defendants have decided to enter plea agreements.  Yet, we are still wrong for treating Vick with distain and disgust because of what we think of him now and his actions.  I was called everything but a man because I am a US Marshal and mentioned from the start that I thought his “buddies” would plea out.  Jai_Eazy came on board after I mentioned the process and how his life was altered once he was indicted.  Jai’s had his charges dropped after having his job taken from him and his whole life changed beyond repair. 

 

Jai, unlike Michael disassociated himself from the other defendants from the start.  Michael went across state lines, violated multiple federal, state and local laws and disregarded any heed to stop; even though he knew what he was doing was wrong.  He thought he was so sly, nothing could touch him because he had the endorsements and $130,000,000 to boot.  He was man enough to flip the Atlanta fans off with the middle finger.  Now, he seems to be more of a man than the other three co-defendants are.  On the other hand, is he more stupid or thinking we are just stupid?

 

Time can be the greatest ally or the most feared opponent.  He alone must face the burden of proving his innocence.  He has come out and had his lawyer prepare a statement (in his words) that proclaimed his innocence.  He insulted all his fans (that he had) and now is going to have to try to get a court of peers to find him innocent of the accusations.  The same court that understands his co-defendants have already pleaded out. 

 

Oh how things have changed in the course of a few weeks.  His partners in crime are realizing that all the status symbol Michael Vick gave them, the “New Kennelz Posse” has fallen apart, this is not a game, a pit bet, and Michael cannot buy his way out of this.  He said he did not know what was going on at his house, if you can believe that.  Of course, we may not understand what is happening in our house either.

 

The NFL commissioner is still investigating what recourse he has and in his statement, the gist of it says, that if he lied to the commissioner that is a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy.  Maybe Vick is the only one of the four accused, err three, err two, and err one that still wants to defend himself with a jury of his peers.  What a paradoxical name that is now for him.  A jury of “peers!”  Considering the peers that Michael Vick has associated himself with since 2001 and if I were he, I would hope to be able to get the first draft in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary’s Fantasy Football Draft.  He had so much talent but was so short on common sense.

Vick's item's being pulled
Jul 29, 2007 | 6:55AM | report this
  In the never ending "pig pile" here is some more financial issues/sponsorship money lost for Vick.  I wonderf if he is wishing the trial would hurry up and get here so that someone besides the blogs supporters are supporting him.  All the online store items and trading card stuff is being pulled.  Couple that with the co-conspirator rolling over against him this week and and that is another "can it get any worse for me" check mark.  (Yes it can Michael, and will).  Here is the link.

Vick's Bond???
Jul 26, 2007 | 9:31PM | report this
  Maybe someone out there which is a Vick supporter can enlighten us all.  How much was the bond for the other three co-indictees?  I certainly hope they got the same treatment as he.  I wouldn't want him to get preferential treatment because he is an athlete. 

  All the supporters are saying he is being singled out.  If you have the info, send the link.  I am sure all us bad people that have "singled him out" as already being convicted would like to read the bond for them.  After all it was his relatives, his house he never lived in and kennels he never ran.  But why are none of them being indicted.  Hmmm.  And now an amended indictment to add more charges?  Not looking good for the thug from Virginia is it? 

  Anyway, send the link unless of course they got a bond to post and it was because of the charges they face.  Doesn't make sense does it?  They were all indicted but Vick doesn't get a bond and they would?  Now that wouldn't make sense since they all are indicted, so spare me the preferential treatment #### he wouldn't be getting.

ESPN's Who's Now
Jul 13, 2007 | 9:05PM | report this
I know we are all starved for College Football and the NFL Exhibition Season to start, but I have tried to watch that putred show.  Is there anyone else doesn't like it besides me?  It is almost as stupid as ESPN's mock baseball conference in which, Steve Phillips would play the GM for baseball teams that had just completed blockbuster trades or what their upcoming season was like.  Their panel of experts tells who is now and moves onto the next round.  I am sure all of you know the show.  What is going on with ESPN.  If we aren't overloaded with the World Series of Poker, then it is something like this.  I was just wondering what your views were on the show.  And the thought for the day...always travel alone in groups.
