Good news indeed. Vick is the last thing we need.

 

[zrinkill]

Why would anyone think Vick would be coming here?

WHAT? Vick's not coming here?????? :bang2: :nervous: :tantrum: :grrr: :cry3: :cry2:

 

[rcaldw]

SF would be a good place for Mike Vick to go. I think with Mike Singletary there it could both, help their football team, and help Mike Vick get on with his life in a positive way.

 

[NeonNinja]

Why in the world did you even think for a second that Vick would be coming here? Oh wait a sec, your "friend" source.

 

[BigDFan5]

Why would anyone think Vick would be coming here?

He seems to be obsessed with Vick

 

[TellerMorrow34]

LOL! I'd be THRILLED if he went to the Niners. I've got a couple buddies who are Niners fans that this would piss them off.

Any team that picks up michael Vick should be ashamed of themselves.
Especially San Fran which is know as the most dog friendly city in the nation.
What are they thinking by bringing him there?(i doubt it happens though)
I will have lost all respect for mike singletary if he is ok with this guy.
Michael Vick alone is enough to make me despise any team.

Why bring in a guy that will cause your fan base shame.

Imagine the signs and chants that will go on in the stadium if this guy is allowed the right to steal millions of dollars a year again after what he did?

What did he do?

He committed crimes. He was guilty of illegal gambling. He was guilty of setting up an operation that was cruel to animals (dogs). He was guilty of fighting dogs.

He paid for those crimes. He was tried, he was sentenced and he will soon have served his sentence.

What did he not do?

HE DID NOT ABUSE CHILDREN OR MURDER PEOPLE.

And I've got news for you. There is a difference between dogs and people.

I've seen more hatred spewed toward Mike Vick for crimes against animals, especially by the PETA types, than against 9/11 master minds that committed crimes against HUMANITY and AGAINST OUR NATION.

We are living in some seriously insane times when we start treating animals as more important than people, and before you say we don't, just go smash some eggs of an endangered bird species on a public square and see if you go to jail. Go kill the unborn young of an endangered animal and see what happens.

 

[gosuns]

The day Mike Vick is reinstated I will have attended and watched my last NFL game. Roger better man up and lifetime ban his ***...

 

[rcaldw]

He has paid for his crime against animals and against the state, I am for his reinstatement.

RC we agree on most things, but this we dont agree on. This a truly deplorable human being. I doubt anyone thinks animals (ie dogs) are more important than humans, but what he did was still sickening. You probably should go back and read all the details of the crap he did, then come back and tell me if you still feel the same. Throwing golden retreiver puppies in with trained killer pitbulls to "warm them up" is beyond sick. Honestly had he done something like that to a dog I owned I would have killed him, and not felt the least bit sorry about it. There's a long list of decrepid acts he did here as well.

Good. Now all we need is Ray Lewis to resign with the Ravens and all will be looking up.

Great post! People act like this guy is the Son of Sam or Charlie Manson or something! Perspective people...keep everything in perspective....
FWIW, I've been a dog owner all my life so I understand the bond people have to their dogs but....THEY'RE DOGS!

dbair, I grant you that I don't know all the details in the case. For example, I had no idea about what you just described. And I completely agree (please hear me say this), that animal cruelty is deplorable and despicable. I am in no way defending it. I own an American Bulldog. Our English Bulldog that we had from a puppy recently died and it was losing an old friend. I believe that a person's treatment of animals is a window into their soul and character.

But what I am reacting to is the misguided set of values in our society right now when it comes to people vs. animals. (my opinion of course)

And I read of, and I hear of, and I SEE people who treat animals like people, and actually have more compassion for animals then people, and more of a sense of outrage over crimes against animals than people.

Is what Vick did more cruel than partial birth abortion? (now we are talking "human pups".) Do we have any playing in the NFL that would say that is ok? I wonder if we have anyone playing who has actually paid for one of those?

I know these are uncomfortable subjects, but that is a part of the problem isn't it? We can't even discuss these things in a civil fashion if we aren't on the PC side of the issues. We can publicly state our outrage over cruelty to animals, and in most cases it is completely appropriate, and I don't disagree with it. But why can't I publicly state my outrage over abortion without being branded as some fanatic and shouted down and censored?

Anyway, I grant this one to you, because you might know even more details about the case that you haven't shared yet, and if it is indeed sicker and sicker you may indeed be correct in your view, and I may indeed be wrong.

I was just dealing with a broader issue that bothers me. Many people (note, I didn't say all, or even most) who are so strong on animal rights don't have the same outrage about crimes committed against people. (Such as child abuse)

I hope you aren't all talk.

I hope you actually live up to this when he is reinstated.

If true, somebody at the 49ers office is really, really stupid. And the stupid one might turn out to be the HC there.


Just how many dog lovers do you think reside in the Bay Area?
