vick hired by the philly eagles

Pompous a$$. I just wanted to wipe that smile off his face!
And I'm so disappointed in the Eagles fans - I heard that they gave him a rousing welcome when he came on the field, and next to no protesters outside the gate.

How soon they forget! I haven't - and I won't!

It does seem as though our priorities are messed up! Well, at least not mine - he makes me sick!

The lack of protesters was engineered by the eagles.

If Animal rights groups had protested, they had the NAACP lined up to lead a counter protest.

Great choice of who to defend.

Interesting. Is that a fact, or speculation? In light of the lack of protesters at last night's game, I could believe it was engineered.

It's reality. ESPN was interviewing reps from the NAACP yesterday afternoon.

I wish I had a stream from the radio show I was listening to yesterday. I normally don't listen to ESPN radio, they're annoying, especially on this issue, but I was channel surfing during commercials yesterday and heard them talking about it with a rep from the eagles, the NAACP, and a couple others.

Ok, just so I undertand, so it's now a racial thing and not about the dogs that were tortured and killed?

What a shame that they could turn this whole thing around - from a morals issue to a racial issue. I guess now that we should all feel sorry for Vick because he is being picked on because of his color.

I don't care if he's purple with pink polka dots - he's still a dirt bag and deserves to be treated as such.

Exactly!!! Race has nothing to do with this.
