Vick -- Smirkin' Like a Guilty Dog

Michael Vick just pleaded guilty to a dogfighting charge in Virginia -- and he's still smilin'.

Vick's three-year sentence on state charges will be suspended. He may be able to get an early release from his Federal sentence -- still unresolved.

BTW -- for a guy who's been locked up for the last 11 months, Vick looks pretty damn fresh and clean.

16. Michael Vick is the epitomy of evil. He is truly a disgusting human being, if you can even call him that. I hope he spends the rest of his life in one tenth of the misery he put those animals through. Die bastard.

17. Such a sad affair to even think the NFL, or anyone else for that matter, would employ the bum. What he did to the dogs, ought to be done to him!!! Done deal.

18. Chosen one, you are a fool. FYI, they do have shower in prison and even places to get your haircut. Why would he go into court looking like a thug. I dont care one thing about Michael Vick but having this be "big news" is so stupid like everyone did not know this would happen. If he plays fine, if he doesnt fine, I dont care either way. There are worse out there

20. WOW!!!! It's amazing how people can ripp someone apart after he took responsibility ...I'm not saying what he did is right ....its a crime ....MY GOD!!! EVERYONE ON THIS SITE HAS COMMITTED A CRIME AND FOR THE MOST PART JUST HAVE NOT GOT CAUGHT.( D.U.I, RAPE, THEFT ETC)....SO "he who has not sinned , let them cast the first stone". At least he did not try and completely use the system for his benefit. I'm not a Falcons fans....but I always love seeing him on that field. VERY EXPLOSIVE!!!! L. Hernandez

21. The hatred being displayed here for this man is clearly deeper the mere affection for dogs....you people are racist. If he was white (redneck hillbilly) I would not being reading such hateful words, I'm sure.

23. He is a spawn of Satan! It is the only explaination on why his punishment wasn't harsher. A society is judged by the way it treats it's animals. Obviously we have to learn a thing or 2. In european countries, dogs have rights that are close to us humans. That would make them better than us, and frankly, I didn't use to think that other countries were better than us, but just look at the evidence, MIchael Vick, Joey Porter, and Whoopi Goldberg, all thinking that dog fighting is ok. It is a sad day for these United States. Superman.

25. i love dogs, and i own two pit bulls that have only been trained to sit and walk next to me when off a leash, and what he did to his own was reprehensible. however, they are animals. i know people love their dogs, but jesus get over it. he's paid his debt to society, and he should be allowed to move on with his life. people are hypocrites. if we're not gonna trip off of people hunting deer, bears, moose, wolves, and whatever else they love to kill with their high powered rifles, then you should get off his nards. there are so many other terrible things going on in this world involving athletes and actual HUMAN BEINGS. in 1984 frankie said relax!!!

26. They were dogs! He should be given a chance to pl;ay again. He didn't injure a person, rather an animal.........an animal that is bred to fight. Sure what he did was wrong, but he will have served his time and deserves a chance to make a living. He was sentenced by the Federal Government and will fulfill his term. Why are you people so ready to forgive a guy in prison for murder but you won't forgive a guy who hurt an animal?

27. Ray - He didn't take responsibility. He lied, got caught in the lie and then pled guilty. That's NOT taking responsibility. He also pled NOT GUILTY to animal abuse. How is that taking responsibility for what he did to those dogs? And really Ray, who gives a crap if he's "explosive" on a football field. That has nothing to do with what he did off the field. It's his off-field activities that sickens most of us. The "man" (and I use the term very loosely) needs help!

And ttttt - you're right. This is a very sick world we live in. I have no use for those that abuse the weak and helpless in our society.

28. This is total BS. Why is his sentence of state charges being suspended? Hopefully, Roger Goddell will use good judgement and ban this piece of crap for life.

29. This guy should be in prison for life.. or killed like he did to those animals.. he is the ultimate f***** scumbag....he should rot in that cell....

WTF i can honestly say i have NOT broken any laws especailly the ones you listed!

HE is the reason families like mine can now walk our pitts down the road without people picking up their dogs to pass us, giving me dirty looks for having a "vicious" dog around my children... and additionally America wanting to BAN a breed for asshole's like him who are disgusting individuals.
He chooses to kill. And if you do a little research you will see that one of the #1 common strings that will show among murder's and serial killers is this - > Animal abuse, torture ect.

He is disgusting, and i hate that so many have a stigma aganist my breed!
