		<description>The dirtbag &lt;a href=&quot;http://views.washingtonpost.com/theleague/nflnewsfeed/2008/11/vick-pleads-guilty-to-state-charge.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;pled out on the state charges today&lt;/a&gt;. It&#039;s said to be an effort speed his re-entry to the NFL. 

What did I say? It&#039;ll be nothing but &quot;all is forgiven, he has done his time, rehabilitated, blah blah blah.&quot; 

Reform, my ass. If he could get away with it, he&#039;d be laughing at the spectacle of turning trained fighting dogs onto golden retrievers tomorrow. And killing the fighters that weren&#039;t &quot;good enough&quot; for him and his sick friends. 

What&#039;s missing from his statement? 

&quot;I want to apologize to the court, my family and to all the kids who looked up to me as a role model,&quot; Vick told the judge during today&#039;s hearing, according to the Associated Press.

How about the DOGS, you evil bastard? 

Hell is not hot enough for Michael Vick.</description>

		<description>If they let him play again, I&#039;m not sure a team is going to want him and his baggage (and his age n&#039; attitude!). Seahawks did a calendar this year with a rescue and a few players are also doing PSA&#039;s with animals etc. I think NSAL is teamed up with the Jets. And who wants to take their kids to watch a dog killer play?

And yes, if he  does play, I will be very vocal in my opposition. Especially because the only way he&#039;ll be able any year soon would be a deal with the state. He won&#039;t have done anywhere near the amount of time he should have for his crimes. As much as I hate who he is/what he&#039;s done, if he receives proper sentencing and does his time, then he is  &#039;allowed&#039; to reenter the mainstream and try and build a new life (wouldn&#039;t include football at that point unless off the field). That won&#039;t happen in my mind unless he answers for each death and each act of cruelty. He shouldn&#039;t even be allowed parole unless he can prove he&#039;s no longer a danger to society.  

I can&#039;t tell you how much that AP article upset me. And I read some of the documents earlier! Sick.</description>

		<description>Oh absolutely they will! It&#039;ll be: He has served his time, learned his lesson. How can we NOT welcome him back?

Yeah, I&#039;ll be with you. If the NFL takes back Sick Vick, I&#039;ll NEVER go to or watch the NFL again. 

But then, let me tell you, a boycott by ME won&#039;t exactly scare them. If I watch one pro game a year, that&#039;s a lot for me. I haven&#039;t watched the Super &lt;del datetime=&quot;2008-11-23T19:23:42+00:00&quot;&gt;Bore&lt;/del&gt;Bowl in years. 

Now college football, I love. If only President Obama will get a real playoff going, and DUMP THE BCS.</description>

		<description>I think it&#039;s very likely the NFL will put Vick back to work.  I hate to think of myself standing alongside PETA and the other phoney-baloneys who will call for a boycott in that case but there I&#039;ll be.</description>

		<description>FOIA requests aren&#039;t limited to the media. Contact the USDA public information office and request it: 

http://www.usda.gov/news/pubs/htgi/GetInformation.pdf

Information on the FOIA: 

http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/nsa/foia.html

Since the AP story is bylined (not a rewrite referencing another pub), I would guess (and it&#039;s just a guess) that the AP filed the FOIA itself.</description>

		<description>Susan, that&#039;s the AP story. I&#039;m looking for the USDA 17page report that is the basis for the story.   I&#039;m also curious who filed the FOIA request that resulted in its release.</description>
