A few hundred thousand would help the Dogs Deserve Better organization purchase his old house where the dog fighting occurred, which they intend to open a dog shelter if they are able to raise the funds. I can think of no better way to start earnestly making amends than this.

I would really wonder, if Hector has that kind of hostilty towards that asshole Vick still!!!!I ,agreed that man should put some of his cash towards helping the dogs he hurt….But he is just one of the dog fights that got caught, there are so many more out there that we can help stop the cruel things they do to these dogs……I wrote this for Betty Boop my little pitt bull..

Whatever his reasons were or are, if he gets to appear and be heard, then so should the voices speaking for the dogs that survived him, period. After what happened w/ the whole Hector thing, what all those people did to prepare for going on her show, to have her bail on them last minute, this is just Karma for Oprah.

You’re either a Vick fan or your not but regardless, saying he has changed after what he did w/o proper treatment and therapy is far fetched. You don’t slam a dog into a rocky ground repeatedly and watch as she bleeds to death, yelping and crying for help w/o knowing what you’re doing is brutal. You don’t drown and electrocute a dog w/ your own 2 hands if you don’t have sociopathic tendencies. You don’t do jail time for Racketeering when you maliciously fought & murdered dogs for profit and then expect the fact knowing public to “forgive you” because the time wasn’t done for what YOU had done. He never did one day in jail for dog fighting and if you are reading this and that is your “comeback line” forget it because it’s false and records among records (court documents) state that repeatedly. Besides the dog fighting, he brutally KILLED these dogs w/ his bare hands in ways most people couldn’t even wrap their brains around, ways beyond what I have already stated. That and that alone are why I will never forgive him, just like I’ll never forgive any other animal abuser/murderer.
A felony is a felony, a life is a life and a celebrity…well…their expendable.

When his dogs’ and their rescuers get their spot on her show, then I’ll be ok w/ Vick getting his. Plain and Simple. And when his fans actually are exposed to the truths they’ll see what we see. It may not change their views of Vick, but it will educate them on the lies being told to cover up what he did and what he really did his jail time for. At least that is my hope. I don’t care if you like Vick, I only care that you know the truth.

I am glad it was canceled and am ashamed at Oprah for even entertaining the idea of giving that man the spotlight…for whatever reason. He does no deserve the opportunity to be publisized. He is an immoral piece of crap that deserves to be locked up in a prison not plastered on everyones TV trying to save what little face he thinks he has left.

So he was scared of a few people saying mean things to him? Whoa there tough guy guess it’s not so easy when your victims have voices. I hope Karma is a b!tch to you tenfold.

Michael Vick could have avoided jail time. He could have just stayed silent. It was his word against people who already had issues with the law, he could have stuck it out. Instead, he stood up and admitted the crime. He had done terrible things. He did the time. His dogs were either put down or given to people after rehab. Those people have been on talk shows and the news. They’ve had their say. His life is about his future now, not his past. He will make alot of money as a quarterback. All football players do – it’s not a career that they will have until they are 65 – they have to make the money while they are young. He made a mistake, noone can deny that, and he doesn’t deny it. If he weren’t famous, there wouldn’t have been much in the news about it, so why try to crucify him? It appears he’s being judged still. Worry about the wrongs you people have done, and what you have to do or can do to rectify them, instead of someone elses. Michael Vick has paid for what he did, and that’s that. I will be a fan of his until he’s done with football – he is one of the best quarterbacks I’ve ever watched, and I will continue to watch him whatever team he plays for. I have always had dogs, I’ve always loved dogs, but in the end giving personifications to animals won’t hold up, and they are animals, not other humans.

Brenda, You gave me a better idea for Vicks money. It should be put towards finding the rest of these dog fighting bastards and finish them all off for good. Vick should have offered this from the very begining, along with that he should be putting money toward educating people about Pitt Bulls. There are still idiots out there that believe that Pitts are dangerous. Its not the dog it’s the owner. People who saved Vicks dogs are a perfect example of that.

He admitted what?? Believe me, if you think that Michael Vick could have possibly avoided jail time and didn’t, you are even less intelligent than your post makes you sound. And while he DID do some time, you seem to be forgetting the tax evasion charges he skipped out on and the two failed urine tests he failed while on probation. I could go into the entire organized crime charges he should have gotten, but I think you get my drift.
“His dogs were either put down or given to people after rehab.” Uhm…NO! Some of his dogs are still being rehabbed. Those people have been on tv, they have had their say…what does that have to do about anything at all? Because they want the world to know what a amoral piece of crap he is? Well, then yes..they did…and they should continue doing that, too! And he shouldn’t get to write that behavior off, like he got a parking ticket. If I recall correctly, Michael promised to speak to people about the heinous crime of dog fighting. What, has he spoken to 10 groups in the last 2 year? WoW! Hope he doesn’t wear himself out!! He IS being judged, still…so am I, so are you! Mike doesn’t get to supercede the same life experiences the rest of us do…he’s not God! I love when his supporters use such terms as ‘crucify’ when referring to him. He is FAR from being crucified. He’s the only person I know who can go out and buy his girlfriend a $680,000.00 car while having an active BANKRUPTCY action pending!! How does that work? Michael Vick HAS NOT paid for what he did…he never will. When will his supporters gain the intelligence to understand that this goes FAR BEYOND dog fighting?? When will they begin to realize that it has to do with a culture of violence and depravation that is infiltrating every aspect of our lives? When will they understand that when our President condones such violent, sociopathic behavior, that it will be emulated by our youth in our streets? Go ahead, enjoy watching Mike tossing a ball. Perhaps while you are glued to the game, one of his proteges, who also believe he is a hero, will rob your house to get money to bet on THEIR dogs in the fighting ring!!! Make no mistake, Jill, that is definately NOT ‘that’….not even close!!

Hurting dogs like that is not a mistake!!!!! Michael Vick is now a swear word in our house hold!!
