Title: So Vick is back...kinda
Post by: OchoCinco on July 27, 2009, 03:42:21 PM
I personally hope he has his head straight and grew up. I want him to make a full comeback, we all make mistakes.

HELL YEAH! i love when athletes go against the "good boy handbook".

but it's bullshit for Goodell to suspend him four games, a team should just sign him & have him starting, running that wildcat O!

i ain't got a problem with the 4 game suspension. Not that big of a deal. At one point it looked unlikely he'd be re-instated. Glad he is back.

A team will 100% sign him.

I don't like that he has to wait until week 6. It seems like a power play by Goodell just to fuck with him for being a liar and having the NFL back him becayse of that. POn the other hand if he wasn't such a bone head and fessed up from day one like any lawyer would have told him to do he would have been playing all of last year and this year wouldn't even have been an issue. So if 4 to 5 games is punishment for stupidity then I'm all for it.

As for who should take him; there are a couple teams out there not worth shit that have nothing to lose from running a crazy Wildcat system all year. The only two I would recommend this system to are Cincinnati and Detroit. The Bengals because Palmer has a great passing arm and Vick can be a huge WR for him, and the Lions because they really can't get any worse. The Bucs maybe given their current situation.

Out of all the teams playing now I really can't think of too many that would or should drop their starting QB for Vick coming in for week 6. I can only think of the Browns, The Texans, The Jags, The Rams, The 9ers, and The Bucs. I'll be shocked if he gets picked up by any other team unless it's for another position.

Personally I'd love to see him as an all purpose back on the Colts for a 1 year contract. He'd be Westbrook with an arm for emergency purposes.

I am so happy that this guy is back!! What a great man!! Yeah he tortured and killed hundreds of innocent dogs but so what right.  He only chopped of their heads, or drowned them to death or electrocuted them but so what they are defenseless animals, I think it is so gangster and tough to kill innocent animals.  Lets give Vick another shot, so he tortured hundreds and hundreds of innocent animals to death, big deal.  Free Vick and lets keep going after Bonds hard, I mean Barry probably took steroids and lied about it, that is much worse then slaughtering innocent dogs, Bonds deserves prison and lets all make sure we scream and scream for Vick to come back strong because he is such a good human being.

They were Pitbulls, not St. Bernards. I feel much worse about some entaged Pit killing the young child of it's owner than I ever will about Vick killing a pitbull.

However if he really was drowning live dogs or shocking them to death when he easily could have shot them or something then I seriously question the man's sanity.

^^OK first off it is a fact that he did everything I mentioned in my post, the guy is a sick disgrace.  Have you ever been around a Pit Bull?? When raised correctly they are as friendly and reliable as any dog there is, to try and downplay this because of the breed of this dog is disgraceful.

Just the other day i heard about a "friendly" "reliable" pitbull mauling a horse which ultimately led to the horse having to be putdown. Personally i don't believe Vick "strangled", or "shocked" the dogs to death but rather the D.A offered Vick's cousin a deal in order to prosecute Vick to a harsher sentence thus allowing the D.A to make a name for himself

Pitties are far from being an ideal family pet, just look at the American pittie in particular, it's banned in many countries around the world. I've seen some that are well behaved though etc. Did he really torture animals? I thought he was just involved in dog fighting. If so, then his punishment was deserved.

I gotta agree with Spice on that one, two of my friends are pittbull owners and the dogs are two of the nicest/well behaved dogs i've been around. A dog's behavior depends almost entirely on its owner.

alright look, no matter what breed, what he did was wrong.

but you have to understand it's like tradition down south, like chicken fights in Mexico (right?) or Snake vs. Mongoose in India. :-X

I've ben around many pitbulls in my life and yes I've never had a problem. But they have been banned here (Canada) for a reason. They have a killer instict that can come into play at moments and once it is turned on it can never be turned off. I've heard plenty of cases where a perfectly normal pit went crazy and attacked innocent people or dogs, or cats. I once hearda story of a St. Bernard stomping his choking owners upper stomach and dislodging what was choking him. If Vick killed that dog I'd say hang him high.

Who fucking cares their just dogs.Just because its a house pet people get up in arms about.We slaughter hundreds of types of animals all the time for little to no reason.Next your going to be mad when I say I like to throw red ants and black ants in together just to see them kill eachother.On a side note half of all dog attacks are by one breed,Pittbulls.They are not a good pet they can snap at any moment for no reason no matter how well trained and loved.

Me and a co-worker were just talking about that.  They got a TV show where they shooting dear, but that's okay.  You put a dog fight on TV, and all hell would break loose.  Hey Abnormal, I'm gonna have to try that red/black ant thing.  Got to keep it on the DL, before PETA catches wind of it.

Not gonna lie, I could care less. Call me an asshole lol. I hate dogs. Fuck Peta 2.

It may be selfish, but I don't give a fuck. By no means do I cheer on what Vick did or condone it, but it didn't change my opinion on him

he was probably raised to be into that shit as a child, he didn't just love seeing dogs killing each other; it's tradition.

i always asked why dogs & cats are different than any other animal & if you really want to think outside of the box, why is it that a lion can eat an antelope, but if i go & eat a lion, that's fucked up. ???

^^Is that a joke?? In the wild a Lion has to kill other prey for meat otherwise it would starve to death! And there is something very wrong with killing a lion or tiger just for sport and just to hang their head on your wall, and I am not cool with deer hunting or fishing either.  Either the majority of you guys dont get it or you are just plain cruel.

if i stood within 15 feet (more) of a lion it wouldn't even hesitate to eat me, why can't i eat him first? i am the mother fuckin' dominate species on the planet. ;D

Yeah that's what I was saying, he's from a different culture where it's excepted, obviously if he started at 8 he was raised on it.

^^I just don't see the logic in that though.  So it's understandable for a Dad to be a drunk and physically abuse his wife and kids if he grew up in a environment where that was the norm?  That is basically what you are saying in your reasoning for justifying what Vick did.

^ I'm not justifying it..I love dogs and it makes me sick to hear about what happened to some of those pits, I'm just saying that when you're raised to do something from the age of 8 it's gonna be hard to break that habit.

if you want to get technical though & you want to put animals on the same scale as humans; then we fight all the time, street fights, UFC, Boxing, staged WWE wrestling promotes it. why are we allowed to fight each other?

Gerbils eat there own babies, when there is perfectly good food in its "feeder" or whatever you want to call it.

also, like i & 360 have said, its culture down there, just like chicken fights & mongoose vs. snake fights are culture in other parts of the world.

So you're just a plain and simple left wing loon. We are human ebvings. We stand on top of the food chain and we eat meat. The same way a domesticated lion, or dog, or cat, eat meat. Should we force them to eat veggies? No, and we shouldn't force people either. Most hunting these days is actually very humane. When somethign is in surplus it is time to hunt it so everythign is balanced again. Those deer hunters can only shoot and kill a certain number of deer, and only can when there are to many deer. If those deer are not killed then there will be too many deer in the forest and more than we would have killed would end up starving to death. Read up on deer hunting. And fishing is a worldwide industry that creates countless jobs and lifestyles. Like that fag monkey from the Lion King sang; it's the circle of life.
