    We "allow" the athletes today to do stupid stuff and give them a real second chance.

    The media and ACLU let the same athletes do REALLY stupid things and they get special treatment for the black athlete or star.

    Why does the ACLU have anything to do with a football player who killed dogs? Really nothing. Why the silence when Burress shot himself? What about Stallworth? A little aside about that case? SOmeone brought up the fact that we pit Vick into jail for MONTHS, Donte Stallworth ran over some poor guy on the street, he goes for A MONTH.

    So if Stallworth gets out by making a cash reparation to the man he ran over, why not let Burress write himself a check and get off free and clear?


    Charles Barkley- Team Moron Player- gets drunk and goes chasing after a prostitute-he gets a DUI, a slap on the wrist and he goes back to work after some time out.

    So why can't we look past Mark Sanford chasing tail in South America? Aside from missing Father's Day and maybe using some taxpayer money to travel?

    Make him pay a fine and bring him back to work?

    The ACLU is just a bunch of clowns who infuse or bring race into every case they get involved in.

    --------

    The fans and the media are just as stupid. The media has to toe the line because they will eventually look for a "in depth" interview with MV and every media outlet will kill for that chance. They will tout it as a 'no holds barred' event and nothing harsh will get asked because MV won't do it because he may have to answer to some tough questions.

    I was an indifferent fan last year for different reasons-This year it may just be the same story. I'll watch, but this is another turd that's lost it's shine.

    Did I say the Commish is a dope?

    If we all actually spoke our mind publicly about Vick, or any other person of color, we could face horrendous legal issues from the NAACP or the ACLU. It's gotten so the decent people keep quiet and the perps lord it over all of us. It's a sad world we live in where the innocent victims go unavenged.
    If he had come to my state, I would have stood outside the stadium and protested. Let them come and get me. I would go, proudly. I do not know what is wrong with Eagles fans.

    Richard,

    It's the NAACP that gets the rocks thrown at them in this case, not the ACLU.

    Stallworth's case went the way it did because the family did not want the case to go to trial for unknown reasons. The financial settlement was made as a separate issue so the family wouldn't sue in civil court.

    It's actually not that unusual for someone involved in vehicular manslaughter to get a light sentence.

    The commissioner is an idiot, Vick should have never been let back in the league, Pac Man Jones should have never gotten a second (then a third) chance, but Stallworth....evidently the guy ran out into the street in front of his SUV......I don't think the drinking had anything to do with it, from what I've heard, I doubt any of us would have been able to stop in time.

    Thanks, I always get the two confused, since they are both moron organizations.

    This article is excellent. So true and very powerful. I am taken aback by some of the comments of course. If anyone is not shaken after reading that, they are as sick as Vick is. I'll never get over the high degree of moronic, thoughtless, behavior in this world.

    Yes, Ellie,....... a dirt bad is a dirt bag is a dirt bag.........


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
