He went to prison. Not country club prison, but federal “F you in the A” prison.

Let PETA do their usual song and dance; let them come to every game and spray blood like it’s a 1970s Gallagher concert, but don’t buy into this crap. We have a justice system for a reason. For every crime, there is a debt owed to society. Michael Vick has paid it according to the American judicial system.

Oh the sh*t storm that is going to ensue throughout the entire preseason! We will talk about the dogs, their names, how innocent and precious they were. I even heard an SNY personality claim that they might as well invite OJ back to play. Let’s all slow down, and take a breathe.

What we SHOULD be talking about is WTF are the Eagles going to do with that many QBs. Feely, Kolb…oh…and some dude named Donovan McNabb. Are they going to try some freakish reincarnation of the Wildcat Offense with one of the most talented NFL athletes since Deion? Will we play other positions? Is there a conditional for the $5M balloon in the 2nd year option?

…nope…

Instead, Michael Vick will be spending his first couple of days talking about animal violence with Philadelphia youths. There are already boycotts, burnings and protests scheduled for almost every press conference surrounding this. Look, I expect this from PETA – hot chicks who hate fur, love animals and have too much time on their hands – go crazy. But for the public to participate in the “outrage” is silly if not un-American. He f*&ked up, he paid the price and he is going back to what he does – playing football.

It should be no surprise by now that athletes are just like the rest of us – they do stupid sh!t, say stupid sh!t and sometimes even shoot themselves in the leg. But for some reason, seeing photos of these professional (and college) athletes getting wasted off their asses never gets old. So to satisfy that side of you that likes to see people who are good at something make drunken fools of themselves, we’ve put together The Complete Drunk Athlete Web Photo Index. It’ll have you counting your lucky stars that you suck at running in no time.

P.S. if you find pictures we don’t have here, just let us know and we’ll add them in!

I’ll be honest: I’m a bitch. I have no problem telling it like it is, talking about someone behind his/her back or telling secrets about people I hate. This is why people fight to stay on my good side.

Which is why people are so surprised when they find out about my passion for animals. I cry when those commercials for animal shelters come on the TV, I have to look away from movies or TV shows when an animal gets injured and I wanted to personally kill Michael Vick when it was discovered he was running that evil dog fighting ring.

It is weird, I know, but I can’t help but feel for creatures who don’t have a voice to defend themselves. Yes, even if they have the teeth or claws to do so.

Like sharks. (Yes, I am being completely serious!) Sharks are most often thought of as predators, but lately off the coast of Florida they have become victims. In the past year more and more sharks have been found murdered in the water. There is no excuse for harming another life – especially an innocent one – and it is up to us to protect every creature on this planet.

Please take a moment to sign the attached petition and protect the sharks and our planet’s wildlife.

With the writers’ strike going on for a veritable eternity, the NFL stepped in to supply us with enough drama and distractions that my girlfriend actually didn’t mind watching SportsCenter. Who was beating a hooker this week? Which QB was impregnating a super model today? What did Jessica Simpson do to fu** up my Fantasy Football team now?

The questions and drama were endless, but while NFL players were crashing million dollar cars and re-enacting “1 girl, no cup,” we took the time to point out a few of the most impactful. (more…)

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months in jail on felony charges related to dogfighting after a shorter-than-expected hearing this morning.

In August Vick and his three co-defendants plead guilty for their affiliation with Bad Newz Kennels, a dogfighting group run out of a Virginia home in Vick’s name and approving the deaths of six to eight pit bulls that didn’t fight up to snuff. He faced a maximum sentence of 5 years but was expected to serve much less. Vick is also suspended indefinitely from the NFL.

One part of the morning that did go as expected was the media circus: by 8:00am dozens upon dozens of news sources, animal rights activists and Vick supporters were stationed around the courthouse, impatiently waiting for the verdict.

In related news, the Atlanta Falcons are 3-9 without Vick and will be attempting to recoup the $20 million bonus paid out to the quarterback.

The football rivalry revolving around Texas Tech and Texas A&M students got a little nastier this week.

In the past students would stick to traditional favorites ranging from rioting and ripping down the goal post to pelting opposing players with ice balls and AA batteries.

This weekend when the two schools meet up for the yearly classic, instead of taking part in reckless behavior Texas A&M students will have the option of making a silent statement by wearing an offensive T Shirt created by A&M frat boy Geoffrey Candia.

The red and black shirts bear the likeness of Michael Vick, Dog’s Best Friend wearing a #7 jersey hanging “Reveille” the dog mascot of rival Texas A&M from a noose with text that says “VICK ‘EM” on the front — in an apparent reference to the Aggies’ slogan “Gig ‘em.”

Creative and fashionable! Although the shirts are banned from being sold on campus you can pick one up on ebay to wear with pride at the game. Just watch your back because a AA battery to the head will leave a pretty big welt.

Earlier this year, South Africa’s Kruger National Park was the fertile battleground for an all-out brawlfest between a pride of lions, a herd of buffalo and two crocodiles. Over 17 million hits on YouTube later, it’s still a much-talked about battle for the ages.

Recently a new batch of animal fighting videos have cropped up, some starring Michael Vick, some not. To commemorate our status at the top of the food chain, watch this video trifecta of animals gone really, really, really, really wild.

Battle at the Krugerdome:

Giraffe Neck-off:

Chicken and Rabbit Showdown:

Canine-connoisseur Michael Vick felt really, really sorry about kicking the s*** out of small puppies…so he wrote down all of his feelings on a piece of paper.

Vick used a cue-card of sorts when he held a press conference last month condemning his own actions, using key words like “apologize” and “forgive” numerous times. Like the poet Baudelaire before him, Vick’s use of words were ripe with rhythm and reason.

Thought to be lost forever, the legendary “apology slip” of Michael Vick has been found.

Now, for all you feisty eBayers out there, you can own this slice of history at an affordable price!

Folks, this is your ONE chance to own an important piece of sports memorabilia.

Take a gander at the apology slip of paper, reprinted in all of its glory, after the jump!
