Giantone, read the thread and you'll understand. Nevermind, I'll save you the time. DEVIL'S OWN was trying to say people were turning against Vick because he's black, not because he's an abomination.

I'm not saying that....... 80% of the white people in Atlanta already think he should be gone and less than 25% of blacks say he's do he's say in court, those are facts from a poll done in Georgia..............I dont have say shit, its already being said......

Here I'll post it for you.

"Whites were far more likely than blacks to think that Vick, who is African-American, should be dumped immediately. Among whites, 54.4 percent polled thought he should be released, 36.7 percent that he should stay until there was a verdict, and 8.9 percent had no opinion.

Among black respondents, only 26.6 percent thought he should be released, 65.6 percent said wait until the verdict, and 7.8 percent had no opinion."

Thank you for the poll, I'm not trying to make anything racist, I think anyone is a stupid ass to hate a man....I said, from the beginning, If Vick did it, He deserves to be gone, as much as americans love animal's - but got damn, can we wait until his trial is over with.......I'm not gone say he guilty because of and indictment - you dont know who is trying to sell who out, to save their own ass....... killing dog's is not a racist thing, its a cruel and horrible thing to do....and I dont support that, from anyone.......now you know where I stand on that issue,.... my current issue is, Vick is going to get hit worst than any athlete, Ray Lewis, Kobe Bryant ect (maybe O.J.) naw not O.J., but pretty damn close, and he will lose millions behind this, and I believe this is his last..........chance if he's found innocent.

Re: How Many Games Should Vick Be Suspended?
 

Vick has alot in common with those other athletes you have mentioned. i think it comes to Arthur Blank, and what kind of message he wants to send all of his employees. remember, its not just about the falcons, you have to include home depot. that means there are alot of eyes watching what happens to Mr Vick. i didnt vote, because i think he should be banished, if guilty. and my opinion has nothing to do with skin color. if you do the crime, you do the time

Look I just don't see racism here sorry.I fully agree he should get his day in court. If he is guilty thew the bad press and publicity will be over whelming,he needs to take the time off now and defend himself.
Your poll while I believe you is true is very unscientific and the poll it's self could be bias.lets say you asked 10 whites and 100 blacks you now have .......8(80 % ofwhite people) whites and 25(25 % of Blacks) blacks that feel he should be gone .Changes things a little .

Actually, ESPN announced yesterday that it was 55% white, and 27% black (if I recall correctly) that Vick should be released. But a large amount of everyone has said to have his day in court.
ps- I could show you a "poll" that says that 95% of fans think the SKins are going to win the Super Bowl...but that doesn't make it correct.

Well, you bring up OJ, and he had his day in court...so do you believe that OJ was innocent?

Re: How Many Games Should Vick Be Suspended?
 

I don't get it, what does race have to do with Vick's case? The man is accused of killing animals for fun.

1. Everyone should have their day in court.
2. If Vick is convicted he'll do time, hopefully the maximum.

Until then everyone needs take a wait and see approach. If he is in jail, the NFL won't be much of an issue would it?

Yeah...I don't see this going any other way, but jail.

Does anyone know what the max / min sentence will be?

I don't know the minimum but I believe the maximum is 6 years.

[quote=Sheriff Gonna Getcha;331558]What are you getting at? That they're not pursuing bona fide charges and this is all some witchhunt?[/quote]

I thought that I read that the sentence could be 6 years.

6 x 16 = 96
