However, iIt's been said many times - Vick bankrolled and participated in a multi-state criminal conspiracy. He denied his involvement, lied to his employer and the Commissioner of the league. Further, to compare dogfighting to hunting is, perhaps, not a perfect analogy. Vick did his time, he seems like he's reformed and truly repentant. Good for him. Still don't want him in a Skins uniform.

Re: Nflshop.com mistake Vick skins jersey
I'm sorry, I did not mean to be a Vick hater. He deserves another shot. And I agree about Stallworth. I for one was just having fun. I'm sorry if I took it too far.
I would differ about hunting/dogfighting. Although there are some ethical problems with hunting, a hunted animal killed instantly by one shot is a more humane reality than murder through dogfighting lifestyle.

Re: Nflshop.com mistake Vick skins jersey
just for the record...
Michael Vick would breed dogs just to beat them to make them mean from the time they are born, make them "practice" (fight for their lives) regularly, then when they are injured or lose Vick, HIMSELF, would drown, hang or shoot them in the head. He didn't "just bankroll" ... he killed these dogs in truly heinous ways with his own hands as well. I am actually against hunting as well, BUT... A hunter usually eats the deer meat & the animal is usually killed immediately without torture. I'm not a PETA member or anything either... I'm just just saying the guy did some TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE things to these animals. Also... he didn't stop because he had an epiphany or fit of conscience... he quit because he got busted. He'd still be doing it today otherwise. I don't HATE the guy... I just think he went completely the wrong way (trying to live a "thug life") and I feel people should have the right to still go after him. It's only been 2 years since this had stopped... those dogs suffered much longer (some dogs had been there 5+ yrs) and in much worse ways than he has (or ever will). ... oh... and about the jersey... what the heck is the story behind that I wonder?? Some guy at NFL.com having a laugh??

Re: Nflshop.com mistake Vick skins jersey
While i see why many just can't get over Vick and what he did, enough with defending hunting. Yes a lot of hunting is done and the food is used, but people hunt to go out and shoot stuff for the sport. Hunting is legal but in all honesty there isn't much difference here.

Anyway the thread was about the mistake on nflshop. It certainly was not intended for something that has been talked about way more than need be here or anywhere else. I beg for closure. |

Re: Nflshop.com mistake Vick skins jersey

. Killing is killing to me, could someone shoot me a link to see Vick's exact role in raising, torturing, killings. Whenever i google about the proceeding, i never see actual testimony or admission other then his friends who rolled on him.But yeah not what this thread was about, my next redskin jersey will be Landry not Vick!!
