THIS CRUEL AND INHUMANE ACTIVITY SICKENS EVEN THOSE THAT ARE NOT DOG LOVERS AND COULD BEST BE DESCRIBED AS SOCIOPATHIC BEHAVIOR. MY SUSPICION IS THAT SOMEONE WITH THE MONEY THAT VICK HAS WILL BE ABLE TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY THAT WILL PUT A SPIN ON IT AND LIMIT HIS PUNISHMENT TO A SLAP ON THE WRIST. THIS WILL NOT, HOWEVER, SAVE THE NFL FROM THE WRATH OF ITS FANS SHOULD THEY DECIDE TO LIMIT THEIR ACTION TO THE SAME WRIST SLAP. AS A LIFELONG DETROIT LION FAN,WHICH IN ITSELF IS A FORM OF SELF TORTURE, I WILL NO LONGER BUY, WEAR, WATCH, EAT, DRINK,OR PERFORM ANY OTHER VERB YOU CAN THINK OF THAT RETURNS ONE DIME TO THE NFL COFFERS SHOULD THEY FAIL TO TREAT THIS AS THE UNFORGIVABLY HEINOUS CRIME THAT IT IS.
