Football Season Approaches...

and I'd just like to say: do you remember the last time you drowned a few of your dogs in a bathtub? Or maybe just hung them from a rope until they stopped thrashing?No? You don't remember? Neither do I. You know why? Because none of us would ever think of doing such a thing.If Michael Vick did these things, and sanctioned dog fighting, I don't even care if he gambled. Him gambling is almost beside the point. He should go to jail. And he should not be allowed back into the NFL.People making excuses for Vick have no moral or ethical character. The guy deserves whatever he gets, and should probably have a psych evaluation, too.And if he gets off the hook because he's a pro athlete, and the NFL reinstates him, that's it for me and pro football. In fact, it probably should be it for me and pro football anyway. The number of times a pro athlete gets off the hook for domestic abuse or any number of other things that you or I would go to prison for...sorry. I don't care if they can fly or jump five-story buildings...no one should get that big of a get-out-of-jail-free card....And that's your Sunday morning rant--brought to you Evil Monkey-free.Jeff
