Feel bad for the guy. It's not like he is a murderer or woman beater.

You ever hold a dog's head underwater in a bucket? While the dog fights desperately to get air? Me neither - only an animal could do such a thing

He's serving a measly 18 months - meanwhile people are serving far longer sentances for drug use.

I just heard Michael Wilbon, on PTI, say he felt sorry for him. WTF?! He's getting exactly what he deserves. Idiotic statement from a journalist that licks way too much professional athlete ass.

I don't feel sorry for Vick one bit.

I am usually very empathetic to most individuals, but I have hard time feeling any remorse for someone who has achieved what he has financially. At somepoint and time, you are responsible for your own actions. If you are too stupid to control your spending, then you don't even deserve the money to begin with.
