Nike re-signs Vick to endorsement deal.
It's all about $$$$$.
-Investigators were first tipped about possible dogfighting at Vick's Virginia home in 2005
-Vick and two cohorts killed at least seven dogs themselves. In one other instance, Vick ordered another member of the ring to shoot and kill a dog.
-Vick began planning his dogfighting operation during a 2001 meeting with childhood friend Tony Taylor, shortly after Vick was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons
-Vick bet on dog fights
-The dogfighting ring would charge visitors $20 a person to attend a fight
-Vick paid another person $100 to dig graves for dogs killed
-Vick failed an FBI polygraph exam shortly after his home was raided
Hey dog lovers...don't ever buy another Nike product again. Ever.

I do not like what he did anymore than anyone, cant stand people who hurt animals and/or children.
BUT
He did the time for his crime. I am not saying that just 'cause im an Eagle fan either. He has tried to ammend for it also. You see DMX doing community service?

He sure does have the right to make money from whom/whoever will be stupid enough to pay him. The best thing, to happen, is ppl stop buying said product. Nike, Subway, what else does he promote? I will be sure to avoid them.He should have been sentenced to a lifetime of community service. Those dogs will never get their lives back. I do not understand inhumane and there is no forgiveness, to me, in my eyes. Even thingy fights. I feel the same way.
And, besides, Caseys is just as good, lololol

I always thought he should not had did time but 95% of his earning be donated to help pets but that is just my stupid thought train , he is an azz , I agree but his earnings could have bettered animals more than him being locked up

Yes it was court ordered.. but they call prison the DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS for a reason.. The whole point is to reform the offender so they can be a part of society again. So yeah I don't get angry at Nike or whoever and I don't condone any form of animal abuse.

Butterbean, We know you don't! g ;D Jumping on stormchaser's quote falsification bandwagon, now, huh? Just thought I'd let you know I noticed. Aren't you due to get a memo from northsider or is it just the people who respond to crap like this that get scolded? Uh, huh. |
