Even More Reasons To Hate Jocks

Michael Vick to Make Cameo Appearance on Animal Cops: Virginia

Just when you thought you ran out of reasons to hate jock culture, some moronic football player talks out of the ass-side of his mouth.

For those of you who haven't been following the Michael Vick dog fighting case (if you're too lazy to use Google, here's a decent article), authorities raided a property in Virginia that belongs to Vick (on a drug-related investigation involving his cousin) and found 50 or so dogs - many of whom were apparently injured and malnourished - along with dog fighting paraphernalia. It appears that all the dogs will be euthanized because they are too aggressive to be adopted. Despite the NFL's longstanding tolerance of wife-beating, misogyny, heavy drugs, general thuggery, and rampant homophobia (but God help you if you get caught with a jay!), commissioner Roger Goodell actually appears to be taking this seriously. However, I suppose fairness calls for withholding judgment until Ron Mexico*, um, I mean Michael Vick gets his proverbial day in court.

While the investigation is ongoing (the evidence does not look good for Vick though) there are no misunderstandings when it comes to what Redskin players Clinton Portis and Chris Samuels said yesterday (story here). Portis said that when if Vick was convicted of dog fighting charges he would be "put... behind bars for no reason." Later he went on to say "it's his property; it's his dogs. If that's what he wants to do, do it." Samuels, while giggling, added helpful comments such as "haven't you seen Animal Planet?"



(Sorry, this video kind of sucks)

So Steff and anyone who else in the D.C. area - find out where Clinton Portis lives and take your dog (or any dog for that matter) and have it take a crap on his lawn. And if it turns out that Michael Vick was knowingly involved in dog fighting and Falcon's owner Arthur Blank doesn't can him - then never buy anything at Lowe's again.

*Seriously, if the name Ron Mexico doesn't mean anything to you you need to check this shit out

I hate these fuckers who are involved in dog fighting. What a bunch of assholes. And the dude who says "it's his property, his dogs, he can do what he wants" needs to check out the laws: dog fighting is ILLEGAL, ASSHOLE. MAN this pisses me off!! These guys just need to "prove" that they have big dicks. That's all it's about. And innocent animals pay the price.

ASSHOLES.

Wow, I'm worked up.
