Thread: vick hired by the philly eagles

    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.

    Do they really think that people would not be so outraged about this if Michael Vick were white?
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    IMO if Vick were white the public would be just as outraged. He would still be looking for a job however. There would be no counterprotest like were threatened before the last game.

    If anyone dares and speaks out against him they are labeled racist. Which is
    what you were in effect saying.
