I'm not fanatical about it, however. I'll watch the game if I have time, or listen on the radio if I'm working. If I miss the game, I can read about it the next day. As to Vick. What he did is disgusting, but not surprising. Many of these professional sports people have problems, be it alchohol, drugs, driving fast, gambling or dog fighting. Young people, suddenly very rich, and don't have a clue as to how to handle it. No surprise. What I find somewhat surprising, is the reaction. Someone mistreats an animal, they want that person hung. A few million abortions? Yawn. THAT, is the true tragedy.Billiamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15489132492383133253noreply@blogger.com
