Default Vick pleads guilty

Like he had any choice. I know a lot of people don't care shite about dogs but doesn't this point to this guy's demeanor and a sorry doesn't cut it.

He was caught fair and square.... I think the NFL has responsibility to show what happens when you cross a big line like this...

Not sure if this belongs in trailer park..... Probably does now he's guilty.

i kind of followed the story but couldn't pay a whole lot of attention to it due to the cruelty aspect.

It's good that he's finally plead on this but he didn't really have any options given how his co-defendants already took the deal. I wonder if he would have plead if they haden't? Personally I dont think so and so his apology is just hollow.

I forced myself to look at some of the articles and what they did was just sick.

Bit difficult to apologize to the "real" victims here isn't it? The SOB, I hope they throw the book at him. :curse:

I started a thread in TIO a few weeks ago on this very subject:

I supposed he's copped some sort of deal with the prosector's office. :curse:

Probably but hopefully not a good one given that this was more or less forced plea because of the co-defendants ( who are getting lesser sentences for agreeing to testify against Vick).

Maximum he could get is 5 years and $250k fine but they say that much jail time is unlikely :curse:

Well I hope there is a God and on Vick's judgement day God reminds him he gave he his own name to them spelt backwards. :curse:

He'll get about six months and a fine which he can well afford All we can hope for is that his career is well & truly over, scum of the earth that he is

He will probably get less than that, less than Martha Stewart's 5 month's.

I mean, she messed with rich peoples money. That's way more serious
