RSSPhiladelphia Eagle QB & Convicted Dog Killer Mike Vick Says He Would Like to Own a Dog
File this one under, “he said what”!
Awe, ain’t that special, Mikey wants a dog.
Philadelphia Eagle QB and convicted dog killer Mike Vick said that he misses being a dog owner and would like to have one as a pet someday. Yes, the same Mike Vick who was sent to prison and convicted on dog fightinng charges. However, Michael Vick was banned by the judge who sentenced him on dogfighting charges from owning another dog while on probation. How special, there is a lucky dog just waiting to be gotten the second that Vick is off probation.
The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, interviewed by NBC News and the website TheGrio.com, said he and his family miss having a dog. He said he wants to show people that he can be a responsible pet owner and that he would not take the opportunity for granted.
“I would love to get another dog in the future. I think it would be a big step for me in the rehabilitation process,” Vick said, according to NBC News and TheGrio.com. The full interview was scheduled to be shown on TheGrio.com on Wednesday.
The last thing that Vick should ever be commenting on is the owning of a dog. Vick should count his lucky stars that the NFL gave him a second chance to even earn an income. However, in an industry where it is more important what you do on the field to earn a buck for NFL owners than what you do in your home to your spouse, children and pets. How inappropriate is it that a convicted dog killer say that he looks forward to one day owning a dog?
What a bunch of lip service and a disservice that sports entertainment (ESPN), BS’d homer Philly fans and the Humane Society is doing for dogs. Just curious, why should any one give Vick the benefit of the doubt? I am sure there are a lot of convicted pedophile teachers that look forward to one day teachingchildren again. So should they be allowed back in the classroom to as long as they apologize and do some community service? Has every one forgot just what Michael Vick did and the heinous nature of dog fighting? His PR team certainly has done a great job to blind people. We are supposed to believe that after being one way all his life, Vick has done a total reversal.
A note to Mike Vick, why don’t you try first with a gold fish or a turtle and try not to turn them into a fish fry and soup.

Let him fight dogs for it.
Frankly, Mr. Vick, I don’t give a damn about you and your rehabilitation process. I care about the dogs.
LilPuma,
Vick paid his dept to society. A hell of a lot moreso than if he’d done a more serious crime and not been a celebrity athlete. A will agree it was bad he had any part in this, but he does have children and wants a pet for them.
I love to watch that man play football and have been a fan since he was our local hero @ Va Tech. He had a hard childhood and it is amazing he was able to escape it. Please give the guy some credit for having changed for the better after his time in prison. Least he took full responsibility and didn’t attempt to put the blame elsewhere.
If it turns out he’s lying to the world and even fooling those closest to him who say he’s changed so much for the better, I’ll eat a sock and say you told me so.
He should be in a cage and mauled to death.
If it had been just an ordinary person; they’d still be serving time!
Don’t believe the hype and the “alleged” change in this person. He’s a sociopath and possibly psychotic. Dahmer killed animals too before he went on to killing people. Vick isn’t far from Dahmer mentally.
For Vick to claim that he was brought up around dog-fighting is pure BS. He lives maybe 4 hours south of DC so please spare us the bullshiz.
Listen, his brother is basically a child molester and a thug and so is Vick. Listen, one of his co-defendents rubs cake in his face; Vick leaves, and all of sudden this dude Phillips gets shot? Come on Man! It’s doesn’t take a genius to know that one of Vick’s boys did it and he knows who it is…please!
For Eagles fans to support this guy just proves what a bunch of a-holes those fans are…..pure and simple…boo Santa, boo when Michael Irving when he got hurt and now cheer a psycho-path like Vick who did unconscionable things to dogs. It goes far beyond just fighting them.
Look up the episode of DogTown when they brought some of Vick’s pitbulls there for rehabilitation; it will bring tears to your eyes what he did to these animals.
It’s funny people forget RON MEXICO…LOL and the fact there as a photo going around of him smoking a blunt!
I hope Vick plays Ryan and the Falcons and the Falcons smash his arse!
I hope Vick burns in hell!
That’s like letting a pedophile run a daycare center. Vick loves to fight his dogs!
Have you seen two electric eels fight each other?
…. and all former convicted child abusers should be allowed to adopt children.

F Vick, and his family tree, and the people who watered it.
It is in their general direction in which I do some unsavory things that I really don’t feel comfortable with discussing with neighbors.
So, Merry Christmas, ya little ho. You know what you did!

Everyone deserves a chance to move on from their mistakes.

SM: Everyone, really? So say if some one murdered a member of your family … they would as well? Does Bernie Madoff deserve a second chance? How about a predator who molested and raped a child?
Still feeling generous?
