The circus arrived in Richmond, Virginia on Thursday with its main clown front and center. Michael Vick and all three co-defendants pleaded not guilty to dogfighting related charges and asked for a jury trial.

Shocker. The trial is now set for November 26, which would be around the time Vick could have been helping the Falcons win football games (or lose them if his fumblitis and inaccurate throwing arm flared up), instead he’ll be knee deep in dog sh…ah never mind.
