Ah, all is well. Vick found Jesus

[MonkeyFunk]

Doing a press conference now. This ordeal has caused him to find Jesus and turn his life over to God.

At least that worked out well.

[hobbit709]

1. Wanta buy a bridge?

[evlbstrd]

2. Jeezuz=Instant Relief™

[corkhead]

3. I didn't know Vick was a Republicon Pedophile

:shrug:

[IndianaJones]

8. Out of curiousity....are all three of those things equally horrible?

These threads always bring out the best in people.

[corkhead]

17. I didn't mean it for it to be interpreted it that way and have edited it accordingly

I only mentioned it because of the hypocrisy, but it didn't need to be there to make my point. my bad.

[Lasher]

27. Oops, I'm glad I didn't say that.

This type of comment can slip into conversations too easily, and from folks who you would otherwise consider good people. I have stepped on my foot like this in the past but I'm teaching myself to be more considerate. Some of my gay friends have sometimes seemed defensive but I can understand why.

:hippie:

[whoneedstickets]

34. Did you mean Poodlephile?

[mike_c]

4. no doubt jeebus told him to holdeth the presser, verily....

:rofl:

[bluestateguy]

5. I knew it

This is all just setting up a tearful drama to be played out, rambling on and on about his "redemption", so he can come slinking back onto the football field.

[meegbear]

6. As Dennis Miller (when he used to be funny) said:

You never find God on Prom Night.

[ComerPerro]

50. oddly enough, Dennis Miller today would probably insult someone for saying that

[Nederland]

7. Just like Paris Hilton

How sweet. The two of them will making beautiful babies.

[blondeatlast]

9. I've looked my entire life. I guess I just need to make a boneheaded, enormously

cruel act against a fellow creature and then call upon Him in order to save my career and He'll knock on MY door, too.

Que'lle surprise. Not.

[spanone]

10. ain't buying that shit.....Jesus like dogs too

[Norquist Nemesis]

11. Nobody else would have him! n/t

[ecstatic]

12. At least it's not rehab

LOL. I guess they have drug/booze rehab, and even rehab to turn bi preachers straight... But they forgot to make one for dog-fighting.

[King Coal]

13. According to Bill Maher, Vick has a lot of supporters in the US.

Cats.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

14. well now isnt that lovely

[jgraz]

15. Let's just hope Jesus lives up to his expectations

We wouldn't want Jesus electrocuted, after all...

[Arkansas Granny]

16. Maybe finding Jesus is a quicker fix than going to rehab.

I just about choked when I saw that on CNN.

[underpants]

25. He found Jesus? Really? Where was he?

Oh please don't tell me he was in one of those kennels being raped by a pitbull

[MadHound]

18. Probably angling for a lesser sentence

And also for the publics' forgiveness. Sorry Mike, I don't buy it one bit.

[BadgerLaw2010]

29. Good luck with that with this hardline federal judge.

Only way Vick gets a light sentence is if he has a ton of information on other major dogfighters. Otherwise this judge will toss him in jail for years.

[MadHound]

39. Frankly that's what I'm hoping for Vick

That the judge throws the full five years at him. I've worked in too many shelters, too many vet offices and seen too much of what happens to fighting dogs to ever forgive Vick or anybody else engaged in this barbarity. Frankly I'm utterly disgusted at Vick's oh so carefully worded confession, admitting as little as he can get away with. I hope that the judge sees through this ploy and nails him to the wall.

[B3Nut]

48. Yup. No leniency.

Sorry Mr. Vick, we Pit Bull rescue people don't buy your bullshit "Ah done found JEEEEEE-sus!" charade. It's so transparently cheap as to be utterly offensive. We see right through your sorry, cruel ass.

Todd in Cheesecurdistan

[theredpen]

19. Cool! Where was He? n/t

[blondeatlast]

23. "Sorry. No follow-up questions." Even if the entire Christian world wants to know... nt

[underpants]

20. He turned his life over to DOG??!!!?

[0007]

21. Ah yes! Vick has become one of Jays'us' sunbeans.......nt

[YOY]

22. Shoulda found him before you got caught a**hole

Then maybe you would have stopped the cruelty yourself instead of having the law step in.

A**hole tactic...

[whoneedstickets]

24. Did you notice GOD is DOG spelled backwards!!

No GOD fighting now Mike!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

26. WRONG WRONG WRONG!

THE TIMING IS OFF.

First, you plead no contest, then you go into rehab, then you make a public statement apologizing that mistakes were made, then you find jesus. You have the keep that order - that playbook specified every move, damn it.

[mzmolly]

28. Well, that was quick.

Too bad Jesus didn't advise him before he murdered innocent animals for fun.

[Parche]

30. Jesus Lost?

I thought jesus was coming? :hi:

[MethuenProgressive]

31. "So he killed a few dogs. How many cows did McDonald's kill today?"

Quoting his lawyers at a future date, I am.
Or PETA, I'm not quite sure...

[blondeatlast]

35. Somehow I don't see PETA pleading for his mercy. nt

[MethuenProgressive]

43. How about comparing our outrage (pet dogs) to our indifference (burgers)?

I know I see things a little bit sideways sometimes,
but see some cultural hypocrisy here. YMMV.

[ruiner4u]

55. What about the brutal murder of veggies that goes on every day...

crushing an innocent tomato that is in the prime of its life just......to......make.....sauce..


omg, the humanity...

[panader0]

32. He "axed Jesus"............that's no way to get forgiveness.

[rocktivity]

33. Hands up who DIDN'T see this coming...

:hi:
rocknation

[blondeatlast]

37. ...

:hi:

[hatrack]

36. Right on time!

What a surprise - NOT.

:silly:

[wicket]

38. Praise tha LAWD!!!!

:crazy:

[Subdivisions]

40. He ain't seen shit yet. Wait'll he's sitting in a jail cell for a few

days. THEN he'll know Jesus.

That is until the day he gets out.

[Az]

41. Why oh why are Christians always misplacing Jesus?

They keep going around asking people if they have found him. Can't they keep track of the guy? (Humor)

[blondeatlast]

42. We are going about it entirely wrong.

Most of us worship quietly, try to leave by His teachings, are reasonably decent to our fellow critters (I've been known to kill ants, silverfish, and cockroaches, though I no longer eat much meat) and try to avoid situations desperate enough to really need His aid.

What we need to do: Have multi-million dollar carrers (that's negotiable, see Paris Hilton) in the public eye, fuck up miserably and do horrendous harm to a fellow critter, act arrogantly humble when caught doing an awful thing, and beseech him to save our careers.

Fuck that, it's too difficult--I think I'll just try living a decent life.

[Canuckistanian]

44. What, no rehab clinic?

And he calls himself an expert in PR....

[bleedingheart]

45. Just when Jesus ran away from the last whacko "who found him"

he gets caught again...

[Burma Jones]

46. He may the person that ruins the whole Jeebus card thing for all celebrities

[DFW]

47. Well, it's about time!

As we all know, Vick had been turning his house upside down looking.
It just goes to show--you never know what you'll find when going through
all that stuff piled up in your attic.

After he has turned his cash advance back over to his football team,
I guess he might as well turn his life over to God, unless the IRS
thinks it should get turned over to them first. I don't know of one
single case where the IRS has ceded priority to God without a court order....

[valerief]

49. Why can't these asshats ever find the Flying Spaghetti Monster instead? nt

[Beelzebud]

51. Because they aren't worthy of His noodly appendage.

[youthere]

52. What...no rehab?

[conscious evolution]

53. jesus needs a better hiding place

[Dr. Strange]

54. He should have tried behind the fridge! n/t
