phillybear 366 Posted June 12, 2007 do you think there is a possibility that michael vick has connections to the mob through his illegal dog fighting and could possibly be throwing games for profit???? The mob would recruit NFL officials for influencing games, and not players. Simply because the players make so much money from salary, endorsements, commercials, personal appearances, etc, that they are out of the mobs price range, other than blackmail situations. NFL officials I believe work other jobs during the week. They can be bought, fairly easily. Key penalty here and there, and voila... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peenie 1,915 Posted June 12, 2007 oh, yeah, that's true. i was just wondering why the FBI would be involved. however, after reading the article fastfish posted, i understand. i don't think you know what ">" means. it means greater than in math, but for me it means, well you know what it means!!!

fastfish 0 Posted June 12, 2007 that piece by the AP will open a lot of eyes...Vick is scum and he's done in the NFL. Watch, learn and listen as the Commish shows all what "protect the shield" means. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mungwater 597 Posted June 12, 2007 vick may be a scum bag but you're delusional if you think he gets more than couple game suspension as a result of this. I have a question about that, I know that dogfighting is a felony, is the time per count? Meaning if they found those 30 dogs or whatever, will it 5 years per dog? I can't imagine Vick having connections with the mob, they would guide him like he was a dog.. "I know you and your friends think you're tough and all, but we are the real McCoy's, you even think about looking at us funny, you'll be buried here with that dog.."

People (read paying fans) love dogs about the same as they love kids...Vick could not have picked a worse hobby (with the possible exception of kiddie porn) When this story gets fully publicized, the reaction will be a tidal wave of anger at Vick and anyone who tries to defend his "sport" (ask Portis how his mail went after he tried to defend Vick) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fastfish 0 Posted June 12, 2007 NFL Network led their "news" section with Vick. It seems the nation's top canine forensic expert is being brought in to review evidence.

Recliner Pilot 61 Posted June 13, 2007 how many times has michael vick been arrested vs. pacman? Oh, you want to change the subject.

avoiding injuries 1,589 Posted June 13, 2007 I dunno, with Vick giving the Falcon fans the finger and then getting detained at the airport for the water bottle before this incident, I'm not sure how different Vick and Pacmans situation is in the eyes of the new commish. If I were a betting man, I'd take the over on the 4 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Recliner Pilot 61 Posted June 13, 2007 over/under 4 games one month sig bet. obviously, you gotta take the over Yer on. With one caveat.....it has to be after they finish the investigation. If they find nothing wrong you win. These cheesdicks have a way of dragging this shiot out and I don't see anything happening from the NFL people until then.

Boz/BoFan 0 Posted June 13, 2007 I say put that charcoal scratch behind bars for 10 years if he is found guilty of dog fighting. He's not worth a sh!t in the NFL anyway. No big loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let Da Big Dog Eat 40 Posted June 13, 2007 i don't know....vick packs the stadium. he has loyal fans that i don't think care what he does. Guess you don't know the demographics of the NFL fan base. Vick is (at this point) implicated. Would guess Vick's ability to sell tickets/merchandise is at an all time low right now. There are not a whole lot of ghetto thugs who would overlook this fact that buy season tickets and merchandise. Those who steal the merch will likely still do so but not those who pay for it.
