Despicable Acts of Cruelty

Michael Vick has been identified by a confidential source as a dog fighting "heavyweight". A prominent figure who brings quality dogs and a ton of money to bet and move around the event. That is despicable. He SHOULD go to jail, but who knows what will happen if he is convicted, since he's a famous athlete. Fame = minimal culpability. Others will take the fall for him. He won't do time. And if any "normal" person has seen any footage of 2 poor animals tearing each other part, pretty much to the death, the loser whining and writing in agony, ripped and bleeding, torn and broken, like I have, and feels no emotion at that, then you are without a soul. This is a HUGE button push for me, simply cruel to good hearted dogs who have been raised to die horribly. Just once, I'd like to take the "promoters" and put THEM in a cage and have THEM fight TO THE DEATH. See how they like it. Enough on this, it makes me physically ill.

If anyone missed the NHL Stanley Cup Finals game 1 yesterday, you missed quality hockey. And you're a worse person for it. It did NOT disappoint - heavy hitting, fast play, missed chances, buried goals. Everything that Tilam hopes hockey is about as opposed to the regular season "goon fest" as he calls it. Little chippy play too, which is always good for the fan. :)

Tilam and I have blasted Michelle Wie time and again for her LACK OF accomplishments, and we (or at least *I*) constantly root against her on the PGA because she's nothing more than a sideshow, as bad as that sounds. But HERE is a young lady that deserves our cheers and hope. Good luck MacKinzie!

And in the world of high priced asswipes, flagrant demonstrations, selfish promotion, there is a hero who, tragically, gave his life to become so. Farewell and godspeed, Marquise Hill, rest in peace, your sacrifice saved the life of another. One person is alive because of your gift...
