of course he does...

I'm still ticked at this guy; for several reasons:
a. I'm not so sure he was ever worth all that great of a contract to begin with. There are probably 100 other guys out there with the same amount of talent.
b. How dare he use the culture argument for something that is not only illegal, but morally wrong! At one point early in the news coverage of this topic, several people, Vick included, used cultural upbringing as an excuse for participating in dog fighting. Just because something is common in your area of the country doesn’t mean it has argumentative validity. Some religions and cultures slaughter animals in a way that makes most of us question their morals. Those people have a significant cultural argument! Dog fighting is straight up animal cruelty and gambling. I can't think of any normal human being that would honestly believe that gambling is a good cultural defense.
c. He has a sort of "I am a God" attitude that makes me want to scream!!! He is a cocky piece of work.. with no valid reason for being so. He is an athlete, not a God. And, he's not the best athlete out there. If he can sit in prison for something he says he's sorry for and still think that when he walks out he will be a hot commodity, then he most likely hasn’t learned a thing from this experience and feels little remorse for anything aside from getting caught.
-"“He is hopeful to play quarterback,” Daniel Meachum, an attorney and business manager for Vick, said in an interview. “There is no person with his talent in that position in all the league.”- (quoted from linked article)..
REALLY!!! I don't watch a lot of professional football, but I think I'm probably correct in saying, "WTF?!"... "THERE IS NO PERSON WITH HIS TALENT IN THAT POSITION IN ALL THE LEAGUE!!" You're right Michael, all of those other quarterback shmucks blow... you are the reining talent over everything that is professional football!!!
Vick thinks the world of sports is just waiting for the glorious day when he will grace our fields once again!! and for $10 million no less.
The thought of this guy's conceit will now make me vomit up my Grande decaf skinny vanilla latte. This means I will have to purchase another on my way home for lunch.. yet another reason to dislike Michael Vick... That and his unusual facial hair balance of an overly groomed gotee and undergroomed eyebrows.

VICKTORY to the Underdog
http://strangleholdmerch.com/vicktory-to-the-underdog-p-191.html
"Vicktory To The Underdog" takes an in depth look at world renowned tattoo artist "Brandon Bond" and his dog rescue efforts - particularly rescuing the infamous Michael Vick fighting dogs.
Rather than focusing on the dog fighting problem, the movie sheds light on solutions leading to "Vicktory" for all the underdogs in the movie - tattoo people, pitbulls, parolees and all the other people in this world that society has turned their back on through ignorance and racism.
The movie also examines the life of Brandon Bond and his struggle with balancing fame, fortune and the Rock-N-Roll tattoo lifestyle with a more fulfilling life that focuses on the betterment of both animals and society as a whole.
Featuring celebrities like Debbie and Danny Trejo, Michael Berryman, Pixie Acia and Donal Logue, the movie takes you on an incredible journey you will never forget!
Proceeds for this film will be going to Villa Lobos Pitbull Rescue. http://www.vrcpitbull.com
obviously worth checking out!!
