They Deserve Our Compassion

If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.
~St. Francis of Assisi

The public is now learning about the the reprehensible and disgusting acts that are alleged to have been done and endorsed by Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick. This has resulted in his indctment by the Federal government.

The indictment contains disgusting and vile acts that were done and endorsed by Vick. For those of you unfamiliar with this case, he is charged with owning and operating a dog fighting business in which dogs are trained to be vicious and fight against each other for "sport."

Two points in the indictment illustrate the depravity:

"In March 2003, PEACE, after consulting with Vick about the female pit bull's condition, executed the losing dog by wetting the dog down with water and electrocuting the animal."

"In April 2007, PEACE, PHILLIPS and VICK executed approximately eight dogs that did not perform well in 'testing' sessions by various methods, including hanging, drowning and slamming at least one dog's body to the ground."

I would urge those of you that are as outraged as I to take action to see that Vick never plays another down in the NFL.

All (Cl)Ass

Seems that lack of class extends to baseball player's wives. The wife of Alex Rodriguez wore a white tank top to the game against the Athletics with a common, two-word obscenity ending with "you". Yankees stadium has a policy against obcenity. What a classy woman!

Bonds In All Star Game

Whoever said that fans know best. The fans voted the Roids Giants player into the All Star game as he overcame a 119,000-vote deficit to edge the Chicago Cubs' Alfonso Soriano. What a country.

Tank Is Empty

Tank Johnson's time ran out with the Chicago Bears today. He was released Monday by the Chicago Bears, who are "embarrassed" by the defensive tackle's legal troubles and say he "compromised the credibility" of the team.

Johnson was waived three days after he was pulled over by police in Arizona for DUI. "We are upset and embarrassed by Tank's actions last week," general manager Jerry Angelo said in a statement.

Is Sammy Headed To The Hall?

With Sammy Sosa's 600th career home run last night, we now have the ESPN lackeys pushing for Sosa to be voted into the Hall. We have morons like Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg who think we should annoint him in.

Have these imbeciles forgotten Sammy's extraordinary physical growth? How about the cork bat? And how about the fact poor Sammy couldn't understand or speak English when "testifying" to Congress about steroids. Give me a break!

Deere In The Headlights

Michelle Wie has supposedly seen the lights. Unable to break par against the women, Michelle Wie has given up on competing against the men. Wie decided Tuesday to withdraw from the John Deere Classic. Smart move Michelle.

Kobe's Beef

If any NBA teams want an ego the size of Texas and someone who puts himself above team, then Kobe is the man for you.

Bryant went on his web site to boo hoo his tragedy. "When you love something as much as I love the Lakers its [sic] hard to even imagine thinking about being elsewhere. But, the ONE THING I will never sacrifice when it comes to basketball is WINNING."

Ok,Kobe. Lots of luck.

This Isn't Intramural Football

The Oakland Raiders canceled the final week of their offseason training program Friday after complaints from the NFL players' union about the intensity of the practices. Coach Lane Kiffin said the players' union believes the Raiders' offseason program violated league rules on practice standards.

"The union has complained about the high level of intensity, player aggressiveness and fast pace of our practices and, as a result, has taken away the final week of our offseason program," said Kiffin, the NFL's youngest and least experienced head coach.

Illegal Contact

A stripper is claiming she was inappropriately touched by Detroit Lions defensive tackle Shaun Rogers. Now that's a surprise. An NFL player being involved with a stripper.

Police and prosecutors are reviewing the claims, Maria Miller, spokeswoman for the Wayne County prosecutor's office, said Monday.

No Horsing Around

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson got a head start without having to jump offside, and beat his coverage to the goal line again.

The opponent this time was a horse, Restore the Roar.Johnson raced a horse Saturday and easily won.Johnson was spotted a 100-meter lead -- roughly about half the distance the horse had to cover in the race for charity.
