Marcus Vick is talking, now he needs to shutup
Since his brother has said nothing about the dogfighting problem, since his famous statement, that he NEVER goes to there, Marcus has decided to speak up. After you read his comments, Michael is going to wish his brother would just go away.
Best Ron Mexico Movie Posters
Some funny stuff here making fun of the Michael Vick dog fighting allegations. Of course, Old Yeller and Air Bud had to be involved with this one.
Blank Talks
I'm not going to bash Arthur Blank. I do understand that he must have a tremendous amount of pressure to deal with right now. At least he finally released a statement. Unfortunately, it didn't tell us anything that we didn't already know...
"We know you're anxious to hear more from us regarding the indictment of Michael Vick and its implications to the Falcons...
Petition for the Suspension or Banning of Michael Vick from the NFL
To: The NFL and The Atlanta Falcons
We sign this petition as a fair and direct way to urge the NFL and the
Atlanta Falcons to suspend Michael Vick from further participation and
play in the sport. It is not necessary that he be judged guilty in a
criminal court of law. It is already sufficiently clear that he had some
involvement in this inhuman treatment of domesticated animals...
Another Falcon from Virginia Tech gets in trouble
Cornerback Jimmy Williams is facing a misdemeanor for Marijuana position. He was supposed to appear in court July 16th but it got postponed until Dec.3. Williams was a second round pick last year who was supposed to compete this year for either a starting safety role or cornerback opposite DeAngelo Hall. This shouldn't have a big impact on the Falcons as a fantasy defense.
Ron Mexico hired Billy Martin
According to Ron Mexico's pr agent Len Pasquarelli, Michael Vick has hired prominent trial attorney Billy Martin, of the Washington, D.C.-based firm Sutherland Asbill &Brennan, to represent him in a potential trial stemming from indictments charging the NFL star in an alleged dog-fighting ring. Martin has also represented Monica Lewinsky and her mother, along with the parents...
Michael Vick Has A Puppy :-)
Or at least he loves the one in this picture, who probably is undefeated in the under twenty five pound weight class. Mike, I just can't thank you enough for supplying me with enough material to write about your transgressions for the rest of my life. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to petition the NFL to let me get my Michael "Ookie" Vick jersey custom made.
Roger Goodell tells Ron Mexico to stay the hell away from Falcons camp
In maybe the smartest that has been done so far in the Vick mess, Goodell has told Vick to just stay away from the Falcons' camp. It's a good call since Peta has set up camp there and the 20 or so protesters are on all the news networks and the NFL does not need the kind of press the NBA is enjoying.
Trouble has had Vick's Number
This article gives an overview of the various situations that Vick has been a part of over the past couple of years. Some of them are the more public ones, but you also get an idea of the extremes that the Falcon brass have done to keep him out of trouble, even offering to "pay-off" people.
Devil's Advocate...
I do expect to catch some sort of flack from this blog, but that's okay.... but I need to say what needs to be said. First of all let me say that harming any type of animal is morally wrong and should not be condoned. I'm not going to make the argument "innocent until proven guilty"...that's like saying we should give people like Scott Peterson the benefit...
Goodell May Have Painted Himself into a Corner
Roger Goodell's previous rulings may have caused him to make some quick decisions on the Vick case before the facts have all come out.
Try hard...I promise you want hate him anymore...
With Mike Vick's name splattering the headlines this past week in particular, it's become more than easy to hate the guy...I admit, I'm not any more fond of Ron than the rest of you, but if you make a concerted effort...If you really try hard...Concentrate all of your energy into it...You can really stop your hate for Michael Vick...You might even find yourself feeling...
Michael Vick Will Be Very Popular After the Dog Fighting Scandal Ends (Seriously)
Certainly got your attention with that headline. Don't get excited though, I'm not the one saying it. No, it's someone much more important than me, like well known Syracuse University Professor Dr. Boyce Watkins. Uh, who?
Shih Tzu Rescuers Talk About Vick
It seems that everybody in the world wants to chime in with their thoughts on the Michael Vick situation. Unfortunately, many of these people are stupid, boring, and don't know the first thing about blindly hurling invective at a superstar athlete.
Roger Goodell: No Spine
As Roger Goodell decides what to do about Michael Vick's situation, we can't help wonder: What is taking so long?
