So, I was planning on my next post being about my second round draft selection advice, but sadly, there have been two major knocks against it.

1. No one commented on the first one, and I, like many other bloggers, am an attention #### and my feelings are hurt. Forget the fact that I'm right and being very helpful. I need feedback.

2. I have entered an NFL fantasy league with some fellow Fox bloggers, and posting my second round list seems foolish until after our draft next week.

So, instead, I will commit myself to the topics of the week and try to be quick about it...

First off... Vick. I don't want to blog about Vick. I said he was going to jail. I said prison will make him a fantasy bust. Now he's been snagged by the feds, and the flurry of responses has come, and for now, nearly went... BUT...

I do have to say people amaze me. I've seen, read, and heard people all week make outrageous claims. Some have advocated Vick receive the same treatment as those dogs... really people? Look, what he did was horrible, but take a look around your major cities and surrounding suburbs. You'll find a dog fight if you want one.

In Denver, there was a city-wide ban placed on pitbulls, and many of our surrounding areas have followed suit. Just last week, a pitbull went mad, attacked a grandmother and her grandchildren, and only went down after being stabbed a dozen times and shot twice. I have a co-worker now who wants Vick to be tortured for his mistreatment of these animals, and the breed destroyed outright. Very humane.

I think Vick should go to jail, but when the outcries occurr and people take it on themselves to be the voice of justice, I only ask that you take some time to realize the difference between an #### breaking the law and a hero falling. The difference? You made him a hero in your own head.

Second up on my list is more of a 1 part 2. Goddell is ridiculous. Only now does he offer to wait to put in league penalties until the courts can sort things out. Are you kidding me? A precident has been set, and I warned in an earlier blog of mine the dangers that can happen when a private company starts dispensing it's own justice. Yes, the other feature names in this are "repeat offenders", but only in as much as Vick. Tank Johnson did his time. Pacman has yet to be convicted of anything. Henry tested clean. This amounts to about as much as posessing and transporting an illeagal substance and running a compound (which is certain, the rest... let the courts decide) where vicious crimes were authorized and took place. I said earlier that I think the league shouldn't be allowed to enforce suspensions until after a court makes a ruling, and this is why. Guys who may or may not be guilty of something are being punished as an example, while other stars in more key (marketing) positions get the benefit of the doubt. There is no lesson learned now. It's a joke, and it's already too late to claim that lost ground of moral superiority.

Third... I also recently posted about Culpepper looking for a new home. Well, I had hoped the Dolphins would have been smart enough to at least get something for the guy, but no such luck. Now, Culpepper should have the advantage in choosing a new home. I was most excited when a fox columnist went along with 4 of my 5 suggestions (somehow leaving the Vikes out... appartently, pride does cost a lot in this league, but then Daunte had his first meeting with a possible team to land on. The Raiders? The Falcons? The Titans? The Bears? The Jets? NO!! In a feat beyond all unstanding, he interviewed with the BUCS? You're joking, right? Let me count... 1...2...3... sort of 4... 4 QBs currently listed on their roster who have experience as starters, and now you want to add Culpepper? WHY? He'll only back up Garcia. Along with Simms, Gradkowski, maybe Plummer and Luke McCown playing on the practice squad. Why would you go there in a season where you have EVERYTHING TO PROVE?!?! Who is this man's agent?

Anyway, I'm spent. I have to go think long and hard about my draft next week. For my fellow Fox Blogger Fantasy Leaguers, do your homework. Draft is coming soon!!!
