The ever-remorseful poor little Mikey Vick.
I can't post this in GD, because there will be too many responses that will just piss me off. See, Poor Little Mikey Vick, ("PLMV") feels the victim because as a super rich elite NFL quarterback he started a dogfighting ring and folks don't like him simply because they don't understand poor folks.

I've been saying it here for years, largely ignored. Finally, Yahoo (of all places) sets it straight after PMLV gives an idiotic interview to GQ.

Enjoy.

" are writing as if everyone feels that way and has the same opinions they do. But when I go out in public, it's all positive, so that's obviously not true <…> You got the family dog and the white picket fence, and you just think that's all there is. Some of us had to grow up in poverty-stricken urban neighborhoods, and we just had to adapt to our environment. I know that it's wrong. But people act like it's some crazy thing they never heard of. They don't know."

PMLV, you dumb fucking asshole. Hoping some big linesman snaps you right in fucking half this year would be wrong.

Guess I just don't want to be right.

1. I'll second the linesman wish...
I don't know football, I do know douchebags.

2. PMLV being snapped in half would make my day...
The player who takes *ickless vick out of the game would be a hero.

3. He's a douche and a half. That is all.
I can't stand the man or the sight of his face.

4. I'm not quite following what he is saying here.
Is he saying that dog fighting is normal in the ghetto where he came from, and even though he is now mega-rich and should know better, we all should just accept it??

I'm not buyin' it.

5. This quote is particularly disturbing:
"For a while, it was all 'Scold Mike Vick, scold Mike Vick, just talk bad about him, like he's not a person,'" he says. "It's almost as if everyone wanted to hate me. But what have I done to anybody? It was something that happened, and it was people trying to make some money."

What have I done to anybody?! Is he fucking kidding?!! He still doesn't come within 12 lightyears of getting it!! :grr:

7. Ugh. Obviously, he's really, really repented.
But if we dare to mention the fact that his contrition is a $ham, we're called racists.

:banghead:

So it goes.
