Ok, I'm not defending Michael Vick because I think he's an idiot, but Cowherd was comparing dog fighting to pedophilia, rape, and murder, all because they were felonies. He said that just because dog fighting is a felony, it's at bad as the other felonies.


Go ahead, rip him.

[bigsmooth]

you know my thoughts on that moron, but cowdung is clearly wrong here. indeed it is a terrible thing and as a pet lover, i cringe at hearing stories about dog fighting. i do hope the truth comes out, and if vick is gulity, he should be suspended from the NFL for a certain amount of agmes, and face the fullest extent of the law in the commonwealth of virginia.

[Fumblerooskies]

I love him hammering on Vick...
...since he's always been a Vick fan.

[bigsmooth]

yeah cowdung is in bed with vick and va. tech, so im surprised.

[The Rock]

I honestly think he thinks that though. I dont think he does it only for ratings.

[RubberMallet]

i usually love cowherd....but i do think he does some things just to get a reaction...

[Rocketfan]

I honestly think he thinks that though. I dont think he does it only for ratings.

Agreed, he has always listed "things he believes are wrong" or whatever.....violence towards women, kids, and animals is always near the top of his list. This is something he believes and will get public reaction, its a no lose situation for him.

I got a problem with Clinton Portis and Chris Samules...I have been listening to that audio from this weekend and for Portis to think it's not a big deal and Samules to be laughing about it that's a problem ....Nothing funny about it in my mind...I like the herd...yeah I said it...

I don't listen to this guy but anyone who defends animals and children is ok with me.

[ATrain]

Don't listen to him, but I don't agree with him here. I agree with Smoothie's take, once the truth is found out and if Vick does have a connection then he should be suspended from the NFL and tried to the full extent here in the Commonwealth.

I think you guys are missing superjon's point. He's equating dog fighting with child molestors and rapists, and the "logic" used is that they are all equal in the eyes of the law. To ever think that making two dogs fight is just as bad as hurting a kid is disgusting. colin makes things up just to try and make his point all the time, and often if you take his "logic" and "evidence" or examples one day, it usually contradicts a point he's tried to make in the past. The guy's a mental midget, but he's on espn, so he has access to the masses.

[SuperJon]

Finally, someone gets it.

[HenryGale]

Absolutely...you can not equate the two...We all have heard the same things at LU....Having a beer carries the same penalties as having an abortion or using a gun on campus. Are these "crimes" equatable even though they carry the same penalty?

[Fumblerooskies]

What is going to drive the needle....rehashing the NBA or NHL game...or getting the audience stirred up about VICK? The fact that this thread even exists is testament to what he tries to do...stimulate conversation...even if it is absurd.

While i agree with the explanation of the situation.....to call him a mental midget is ridiculous, Colin says " if message board guy is complaining about me then i am relavant" - id say he is pretty darn smart.

[ALUmnus]

knowing how to get good ratings does not make you smart. Rosie O'Donnel gets the view great ratings, and she gets the big buzz word, relevant, but she's a complete idiot, I don't think anyone would mistake her for smart. Sean Hannity's the the smartest pundit on the radio, but he's only second to Rush when it comes to popularity because people like his show. Colin is not by any means the sharpest tool in the shed, more like the crappy shovel that you use to clean up your dogs leftovers because you really don't care what gets on it. There, I brought this back around to dogs. We like to keep things on topic here.
