      Vick obviously brain dead

      September 26, 2007 /

      The Atlanta Journal-Consitituion is reporting that just 17 days after he struck a plea agreement deal in federal dog fighting charges and vowed to refrain from use of unlawful narcotics, Michael Vick tested positive for marijuana.

      Falcons quarterback Michael Vick tested positive for marijuana, has been confined to his Virginia residence, ordered to wear an electronic monitoring device and receive mental health counseling, according to court documents filed Wednesday.

      It’s good to see that Vick will receive mental health counseling, because obviously there’s a screw or two loose in this guy’s head. It probably wasn’t a good idea for you to go out and smoke the hippie lettuce juice while you were on probation and likely to get tested, Mikey. Good thing you noted in your apology speech how you were going to turn your life around and start taking responsibility for your actions. You’re without a doubt off to an incredible start.

      Somewhere Pacman Jones is on his knees thanking the moron gods that somebody is actually dumber than he is.

      Bonds’ record-breaking HR ball will get an *

      September 26, 2007 /

      The people have spoken and they have said proudly, “We want an *!” Marc Ecko, the man who purchased Barry Bonds’ record-breaking 756th home run ball for $752,467, has officially decided to brand the piece of history with an asterisk. Ecko came to the decision after holding an online poll asking fans what he should do with the home run ball. The choices included donating the ball to the Baseball Hall of Fame unscathed, blasting it into outer space, or branding it with an asterisk.

      The HOF will still accept the ball, however, even with the asterisk branded into one of its sides.

      “This ball wouldn’t be coming to Cooperstown if Marc hadn’t bought it from the fan who caught it and then let the fans have their say,” Petroskey told The Associated Press. “We’re delighted to have the ball. It’s a historic piece of baseball history.”

      I think Ecko and the fans that voted made their point loud and clear. The ball will forever be enshrined in the HOF with a big, black branded asterisk on it. It’s remarkable to think that no matter what Bonds says or does in protest of Ecko’s decision, there’s nothing he can do about it. At least in this particular instance, the ball will forever serve as a reminder to him and baseball fans that he cheated.

      OSU QB pulls a Eugene Robinson

      September 25, 2007 /

      Did football players learn nothing from Eugene Robinson? For those unaware or have forgotten, Robinson was the Atlanta Falcons safety who in 1998, was arrested by an undercover cop for trying to solicit a prostitute the night before Super Bowl XXXIII.

      Apparently Ohio State backup quarterback Antonio Henton didn’t get the memo, because he too was arrested for trying to solicit a prostitute and faces a suspension from the program.

      “It’s a great disappointment for our Buckeye football family, and we are very concerned for Antonio,” Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said in a statement. “We want to help him utilize any available resources, including counseling, to deal with any problems and seek solutions. Antonio is keenly aware of the standard we have for ourselves, and that makes this even more disappointing.

      My question is, weren’t there enough horny college girls on campus? Why did this kid have to try and pick up a prostitute to get his rocks off? He’s a quarterback at Ohio State; one would think the guy wouldn’t have a problem picking up chicks. Football players please – if Eugene Robinson taught you anything in life, it was to never try and pick up an undercover policewoman dressed like a prostitute.

      ESPN must be looking for ratings boost

      September 25, 2007 /

      ESPN is having a “Town Meeting” to discuss how much race was an issue in the Michael Vick-dog fighting case. It’s essentially a chat with Jeff Chadiha concerning the following topics:

      · How has Michael Vick been treated by the media?
      · How have the emotionally charged aspects of dogfighting influenced public opinion?
      · What role has race played in the prosecution of Vick?
      · What is the long-term impact for the NFL and did the league react appropriately?
      · Can Vick rehabilitate his image and reputation?
      · What does the future hold for Vick both on the field and off?

      Not to make light of the entire scandal, but does anyone care anymore? Why conduct this chat now after he’s already admitted guilt? I could see doing something like this after he was first indicted or even prior to that when the media seemingly jumped to conclusions of guilt before there was any evidence. But this is completely after the fact and to say race had anything to do with the media outcry at this point is laughable.

      People didn’t attack Vick because he’s black. They attacked him because he shot, hanged and electrocuted innocent dogs. ESPN is just looking to stir up a dead story.
