“BRAVE” MICHAEL VICK WILL CARRY ON DESPITE DEATH THREATS

Can’t say we’re the least bit sorry to hear that Michael Vick is being bullied! He says he’s getting death threats and that’s why he cancelled his book tour. SOMEONE doesn’t like the fact that he wants to profit from his crime and punishment. The book was a bad idea because animal lovers still despise Vick, even though he claims to regret torturing and slaughtering dogs. Vick’s publicist says he won’t be intimidated and will continue to do his ”charitable work.” Hopefully, he’ll do the “charitable work” out of sight so we don’t have to look at him.

MICHAEL VICK IS OFFICIALLY THE MOST DISLIKED PLAYER IN THE NFL – AND ELSEWHERE

If footballer Michael Vick, 31, thought it would be easy to get back in the public’s good graces after he served time for illegal dog fighting, he underestimated the memories of animal lovers. We haven’t forgotten those scarred and tortured dogs. Happily, Vick has been voted Most Disliked player in the NFL by sports fans. 60% of all NFL fans polled by Nielsen dislike Vick. To be exact – 70% of the women and 50% of the men named him least liked player. Public opinion has made Vick less likely to land any important endorsement deals – even Nike doesn’t use him as a pitchman. And that’s the way it should be.

NIKE THINKS MICHAEL VICK’S CRIMES ARE NO BIG DEAL- THEY HIRED HIM AGAIN

What’s WRONG with these Nike people? The company just resigned animal torturer Michael Vick as their spokesperson. He’ll design a line of shoes for them and earn millions of dollars. Back in 2007, Nike dumped Vick after he was convicted of participating in a dogfighting ring and animal cruelty. Now the Nike rep says “Michael acknowledges his past mistakes?” Is THAT all it takes? What Nike may not know is that SOME CRIMES ARE UNFORGIVABLE. Should child molesters, rapists, wife beaters, etc, be given a pass if they “acknowledge” their crimes? Has Nike seen photos of the dogs he destroyed? We consumers who love our pets never want to see Michael Vick’s face again. We can live with Tiger Woods’ bad behavior, but Michael Vick just oozes evil. Nike will never look the same to us.

WHY MICHAEL VICK CANCELLED OPRAH

Some crimes simply cannot be forgiven and forgotten. 21 months in prison doesn’t seem like nearly enough punishment for Michael Vick’s inhumanly torturous dog fighting crimes. Naturally the NFL star would like to rebuild his monstrous reputation so he agreed to an interview with Oprah. Days later he backed out and THE REAL REASON IS that the people who adopted his mangled dogs (the ones that survived) demanded equal time with the animals. That would certainly have made Vick look like the bloodthirsty fiend he undoubtedly still is.

MICHAEL VICK’S REALITY SHOW CAN’T END SOON ENOUGH

Did anyone even NOTICE that The Michael Vick Project on BET is kaput? Vick says he quit after the first season of ten episodes aired because he hates the cameras following him. Footballer Vick, the most hated man in America after he was arrested for torturing and abusing dogs for sport, had hoped the show would garner some sympathy and forgiveness from the enraged public. Viewers report that there was little regret displayed on the show (except that he was CAUGHT) and in fact the dogfighting was explained as “cultural.” Vick didn’t get the forgiveness and redemption he wanted, and probably figured there was no use beating a dead dog. For many, his name will always be synonymous with evil.

HAS THE B.E.T. NETWORK GONE MAD? THEY GAVE DOG KILLER MICHAEL VICK HIS OWN REALITY SHOW

One place we will NOT be on Tuesday nights is watching BET. They rewarded Michael Vick, a man who tortured and killed dogs for his own amusement, with his own reality show! The first episode aired Feb 2. Just because he served his 23 month sentence doesn’t mean we have forgiven Vick for the unspeakable things he did to those dogs. BET hopes the ten episodes of “The Michael Vick Project, Season 1” will convince us he’s not such a bad guy after all. It’s a disgrace and BET should be ashamed. Hopefully, the ratings will speak for themselves.

ALEC BALDWIN HAS GONE TO BAT FOR MICHAEL VICK

Alec Baldwin’s support for Michael Vick has us perplexed. Animal activist Alec blogged to The Huffington Post that he feels that because Vick is a public figure, he’s being judged by more rigorous standards than other people who abuse animals. Alec claims the owners of meatpacking plants and directors of medical research on animals aren’t as harshly judged because they are out of sight. Baldwin feels that Michael Vick deserves another chance to prove he is a changed man. We take offense to the notion that meat packers and medical researchers can be COMPARED to a bloodthirsty monster like Vick who deliberately tortured and killed domesticated PETS for his own twisted amusement. Some things are not so easy to forgive. Sorry Alec, you struck out on this one.
