Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher is in a nasty war of words with his ex-girlfriend, Tyna Robertson, over visitation rights of their 14-month year old son, Kennedy.

In a recent Chicago Sun-Times article, the paper highlights several abusive text messages Urlacher sent Robertson from January of this year up until early June:

“Go to hell you f—— —-.”
“Grow the f— up and quit praying and get a job.”
“You’re a f—— fruit cake.”
“Your raising a little p—y.”

Read between the lines and it’s pretty obvious that young Kennedy is caught between two adults arguing like they’re still in high school. Robertson has already lost a court battle while trying to suck money from “Lord of the Dance” star Michael Flatley and it appears she’s trying her luck again, while Urlacher is just interested in seeing how many words he can misspell and names he can call Tyna.

Either way, how sad is it that our society has turned to text messaging to argue? The good old days of throwing stuff and slamming doors has been replaced with a text of: “Fyi: f— you.”

ESPN.com is reporting federal investigators have turned in documentation that an illegal dog fighting operation did occur on the property of Michael Vick, but as of now, the quarterback himself will not be charged with any wrong doing. With that, I think it’s high time everyone needs a wake up call regarding Vick.

First and foremost is the media. Just as in the Duke lacrosse case, the national media has yet to learn how to only report the news and let the facts gradually come out. As soon as this case took flight, all national and regional media outlets had a story ripping Vick and his possible involvement. From ESPN showing video of dog fights on a Sunday morning, to WVEC in Virginia jumping the gun while citing over three dozen dog carcasses were removed from Vick’s property, there needs to be more responsible journalism in this country.

Secondly, to all of Vick’s apologists, just because he might not be charged with anything, doesn’t mean he wasn’t involved or had any knowledge of what was going on. Read the ESPN link above about what these people did to these dogs and it’ll be enough to make you throw up. These are sick people who ran this operation and if Vick had any involvement, he’s sick too. On the flip side, if he is truly innocent, great, then he needs to stop wasting his God given talents and supporters – myself included – need to quit making excuses for why he isn’t one of the best quarterbacks in the league yet. Put in the work for once Mike.

Lastly, to all the “haters” out there, freaking relax already. Just because you didn’t and don’t believe Vick will ever live up to the hype machine that was created for him when he came out of college, doesn’t mean the guy caused global warming, shot Kennedy or was responsible for Watergate. He’s already shown that he’s erratic on the field and a headache off it, so put the gun back in the holster and stop wanting Vick to screw up so you can say, “see, I told you so!”
