Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Michael Vick along with three other men were indicted yesterday on charges of illegal dog fighting. If convicted they could face up to 6 years in prison and be ordered to pay $350,000 in fines. Apparently, “Bad Newz Kennels” located on Vick’s property was used to house and train vicious pit bulls for upcoming fights. Illegal dogfight has become a popular sport among high-priced athletes and musicians causing the feds to probe deeper into the problem.
Consequently, numerous dogs have inhumanely fought to the death or have lost their lives because of injuries sustained. You would think with all the money these morons make they could find better and more responsible entertainment outlets. You have to love the quote by the NFL, “We are disappointed that Michael Vick has put himself in a position where a federal grand jury has returned an indictment against him.”
How many times do we have to hear an NFL spokesperson spew some lame response to another football player’s indiscretion or criminal act?
Maybe they should keep their players on a shorter leash.

I am sure Bob Holden would like to ship Michael Vick all the Dogs that dare walk in Juniper Valley Park
I hope he does some serious time and the message gets out that this type of behavior is sickening.
He he should be put in a small room with a pit bull that has been trained to kill football idiots.
This guy needs help. Big Time!
What a loser.
This is the extreme example of what happens when people consider dogs "simply property."
Interestingly, one of the JPCA exec board members called dogs "simply property" in front of the NYC Health Board.
Fortunately, the JPCA executive board was completely vanquished on the dog issue.
But like a bad horror movie, their putrid stinking shriveled hand will pop out of the grave at some time in the future.
