Re: Michael Vick Eligibility Poll
a piece of property, sure, but still a living thing, and if I heard it correctly, he tortured and killed several living things. That is just SICK, property arguments or not.
Since I never watch football anyway, I don't care. I would imagine that there is a LOT of thuggery and sick $#!% like this in pro footbal, and I have never understood the american obsession with overpaid, overpriveleged and mostly useless jocks and sports stars. Being a talented athlete should not buy you a license to do whatever sick and wrong stuff you can come up with.
and sorry Haut, but being paid big time money to play a kids sport IS a privilege. There is no inalienable right to get to keep your job no matter what you do, especially a job like that. If any of us were sent to jail in a nationally publicized animal torture and gambling case like this, wouldn't we look silly saying that it was no fair that we lost our professional license and job over it? guys lose their professional licenses for things like not paying child support, let alone animal torture.
