For the record, I'm not hating on Vick or wishing him any ill, but he's just stupid.

There are some elements about this latest Vick saga that just dosen't make sense to me.

One would think there would be bad blood between Vick and Quanis Phillips as a result of the dog fighting incident which all but ruined Vick's football career and cost him more than twenty months in federal prison. Unless that bad blood has received a transfusion (which would have required contact or communication of some sort) the question in my mind is, why would Phillips want to be around a man he virtually snitched on and caused so much agony? I can see no reason why Phillips would feel the need to show up at a Vick party where he might not be well received unless he felt reasonably assured there would be no repercussion. Or, did he go there with the intention of settling an old score with Vick that maybe we don't know about?
