Vick is Guilty. Vick is stupid. Vick made horrible decisions. Vick F-up. Vick deserves punishment. Vick doesn't deserve banishment from the league or a sentence longer than a yr if that at all. All this hate i hear and read about is typical of those who love to see a high profile Black person fall off. To prove my case hands down these fools on 790 the zone. An am sports station right here in the A were crackin jokes about Eddie Griffin former NBA player and Seton Hall standout who killed himself this weekend by crashing into a train. I love comedy, but to make fun of a man who just committed suicide and did nothing to you or your family to deserve that tells me these MF's just don't give a F about decency or black people(But I am not surprised b/c they're not black) This media frenzy is not because a sports hero was found doing illegal activities, but b/c he is a once in a lifetime athlete who showed tremendous ability, but didn't get his team to the Superbowl. He had a run in at the airport with a strange water bottle that turned out to be nothing. And he flipped some fan the bird. So what. He had cornrows. So what. He may or may not listen to rap. So what. His actions off the field aren't the best, but in comparison to other players who have done illegal activity he might as well have been knitting sweaters. Michael Irvin is a HOF(Hall of Famer) He got busted more than once with drugs and then with a pipe in his car while working for fox i believe. No organizations or media networks camped out of his house or the fox studio looking to stick a mic in his face. no one cared. It's just funny to me how Kobe, O.J., Bonds, Reggie Bush, and now Vick are going to be forever linked b/c of alleged and convicted criminal activities. The media storm is those cases were sick. Why? Black brothers who had or have lots of money and who white folks can target b/c the have been able to reach their homes and living rooms and impact their children. What I mean is instead of idolizing sports heroes like Bird, Tom Brady, Matt leinart, and Cal Ripken their kids are in love with our black athletes and they salivate at the chance to tell their kids that guy is a "thug" so stop trying to be like him. Here is a nice clean safe guy Matt who went to college at USC and he has never done anything wrong he is your hero(Matt L and Tom B are cool, but both their babies weren't planned more like an accident not illegeal,but not a very great example to show young cities or kids). Anyway make sure you look up Jena Six if you haven't already. I'm out
