Maybe Hall and the gang should be more worried about doing their jobs and winning a couple of football games instead of trying to draw attention to a CRIMINAL. All these guys managed to do is make themselves look like idiots.

I think all of this is just madness... Yes, what he did was wrong, and I am a pet owner, but they were just dogs, folks are acting like he murdered people or something... And all of these folks who place pets over people need to be shot, where are your voices when athletes/celebrities/every day joes are beating their wives? Huh? Right... SILENT...

your analogy is weak at best. you claim killing multiple dogs by strangulation/drowning/hanging and being sentenced to 23 months in prison for doing so is similar to killing people in a similar fashion is absolutely 100% grade A bullshit. if i went out and strangled multiple women, killed several by drowning, and others still by hanging im fairly certain id be spending the rest of my life in jail. in fact, the hanging would probably be labeled a hate crime. id give myself 50/50 on the death penalty. nah, more like 70/30.

i slap my gf i go to jail no questions asked do not pass go do not collect 200 dollars. i kick my dog... i get nothing. weaksauce, please try to pass this bs off elsewhere.

sounds like the majority of the dogs are being adopted. gotta admin im fairly surprised with the stigma that pit bulls have that any have managed to avoid being put down. let alone the majority.

Former fighting dogs get a second chance - Pet health - MSNBC.com

Gill declined to comment, but those familiar with the Vick case said the Justice Department hoped early on to find a way to give the dogs a second chance. As part of his plea deal, Vick agreed to pay for the dogs? care.
The court even appointed a guardian and special master, Valparaiso University animal law expert Rebecca Huss, who oversaw the dogs? disposition and recommended which rescue groups would accept them.

ESPN - Vick ordered to repay more than $2.4 million for defaulting on loan - NFL

Vick ordered to repay more than $2.4 million for defaulting on loan

RICHMOND, Va. -- A federal judge ordered imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick to repay more than $2.4 million to a Canadian bank for defaulting on a loan.

The Royal Bank of Canada sued Vick in September, arguing his guilty plea to a federal dogfighting charge -- and the resulting impact on his career -- prevented him from repaying the loan.

According to the suit filed in U.S. District Court in Newport News, the loan's terms specify that any employment change negatively impacting Vick's income constitutes a default on the loan.

Vick is serving a 23-month prison sentence at the U.S. penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kan., after pleading guilty last year to bankrolling a dogfighting ring. He was subsequently suspended indefinitely without pay and lost all his major sponsors, including Nike. He also faces state charges related to dogfighting.
