Following the Michael Vick saga

What would my blog be without an angry post on how much I loathe Michael Vick?

Newest update: Vick turned away from summer training camp.

NEW YORK (July 23) - Michael Vick was ordered by commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday to stay away from the Atlanta Falcons' training camp until the league reviews the dogfighting charges against him.

Very good. Discipline.

Part two: Emmitt Smith decides to speak out.

Smith, who was enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame on Saturday along with 19 others, was asked what he thought about the Vick situation. He said he believes federal investigators are trying to pressure Vick to turn on the others.

"Now, granted he might have been to a dogfight a time or two, maybe five times, maybe 20 times, may have bet some money, but he's not the one you're after. He's not the one you're after, he's just the one whose going to take the fall - publicly."

Why would anyone defend this guy? If Vick has had ANY part in dog fighting, which most of the evidence shows he has (including the house that he OWNS), he should fall. Ok ok, we're all entitled to "innocent until proven guilty"... Sure, we can wait until the judge agrees with me.

If the investigators want to call Vick out first, more power to them. Michael Vick is NOT exempt - just because he's a famous athlete - from the law. He should know better.
