    Christians have been all in an uproar about baby extermination for decades now, Picketing clinics, letters to the editor, etc etc etc. The amount of christians "raising a stink" about abortion is overwhelmingly larger than the current uproar over these scum who torture these animals.

    Regarding the world in general, well...most of them have been brainwashed by the evil one into thinking baby extermination is nothing but a mothers "choice", to do as she wishes with her body.

    Of course we understand the truth.

    Tom if he is convicted I believe that he should be banned.

    I'm gonna guess he'll actually only spend a year or less in prison, after parole. But he'll be suspended this entire year, then he'll be in court next season and so eventually 2 or 3 seasons may be impacted.

    I live in suburbs of Atlanta, but I say "good riddance."

    :laugh:

    Well, I never got one - never cared for his character, before this latest came to light. I was hoping that Petrino would go with another QB... now he can. :thumbs:

    Looks like he could now face a lifetime ban due to gambling issues. Good riddance. He was a lousy QB anyway (overrated and overpaid).

    The irony is that he did ooze with talent. In that game against Miami for the national title, I was wowed. But you have to be willing to think "team" and do whatever needs to be done IOT be successful as a team. WHen he made references to being the best QB in the NFL, when his stats simply were below par, I could not believe it.

    Just shows the importance of attitude in sports. Now Vince Young has similar talent to Vick, but I think he's got that head planted solidly on his shoulders... guess we'll see.

    Vick pleaded guilty today...

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-vick-plea&prov=ap&type=lgns

    It looks like he could go to prison from 18 - 36 months. I would believe any NFL suspensions would fall after that, meaning Vick will most likely not play for a minimum of 3 seasons, possible 4 or 5. Might as well be a lifetime ban, as the chances of coming back then will be very slim. Maybe a kick returner or something, but not a QB.

    And he has plead guilty as of today...for what that is worth. Probably not worth the sentence he should get.

    I wonder if he understands what he did was wrong, or if he's just accepting the punishment for getting caught.

    I guess I wonder if he thinks it's immoral, or just illegal.

    (a poem for hillclimber):

    Right or wrong?
    Man, get a clue!
    The question is,
    "What do my lawyers say to do?"


    :D

    My question is do we think more of dog than people. I believe the Rams player Little ( I think he played at Tenn, can't think of his first name) killed a person while driving DWI. I believe I have the story correct and he has had another DWI. I think he should be locked up and if the courts say no, I would think the NFL would have put him out for good. Vick should get 2 to 4 years out of the NFL, but if they didn't do much to the other guy why should they do anything to Vick?

    It was Leonard Little. If he wasn't banned for life from the NFL, he should have been.

    Thanks!!
    Little was suspended for the first eight games of the 1999 season after pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter in a June 1998 crash that killed a lady from Oakville, Mo.
    Little was sentenced to 90 days in the city workhouse and four years of probation. The NFL gave him half a season off.
