Informant says Vick bet on dogfights

[Steady Micro Aggressor]

We may move this too the Sports forum later, but the issue here goes beyond sports. Their not too much much i can think of lower than enticing dogs to fight for petty entertainment and gaming. Cockfighting(Note to netnannys: Cockfighting is not a vulgar term so spare proboards the grief and me the laugh) is bad enough, but at least Chickens are stupid. Cockfighting and dogfighting are evil, and only idiots would participate in such crass and base dysfunction. I'm down with Dirty South and all that, but Dogfighting ain't Dirty South peeps, it's stupid.

Now, to Mike Vick. If it's true that he was directly involved in the dogfighting thing up in Va, he's finished as a pro athlete, and rightfully so. I can't for the life of me understand why someone in Vick's position would even go there. I'm still going to give Vick the benefit of the doubt at this point because i don't trust so called informants. Squealers are the same kind of lowlife a dogfighter is, who should we believe? That said, it's not looking good for Mike Vick and the Falcons, maybe even the NFL. Any more sources come forward about this, it's over. I Hear an airline has already dropped Vick as a spokeman.

I agree with you about cock fighting and dog fighting, it is disgusting and inhumane to put any animal through. There have been so many people reporting their pets (dogs) missing. Most think they are stolen to train fighting dogs with. I have a golden Retriever and a mixed breed dog, I love them both and I couldn't bear to think of them in that kind of position. If anyone can call that entertainment, they are sickos.

I also have to agree with both of you dog fighting and cock fighting are wrong... christ I think as my dogs as part of my family... people are willing to do just about anything for a buck, that's the bottom line...

I think we can all agree that dogfighting and cockfighting are depraved behavior no matter who you are.

In fairness to Vick, we'll have to wait until further confirmation comes out, if any does. One of the sources is apparently a jailbird down her in SC. He could be bargaining for a reduction in time or something.

I agree thinks can be so twisted up, and we should definitely wait for all that facts before jumping to any conclusions... thinks aren't always what the seem, and I'm talking from mad experience when I say that... time will tell!
