Vick made Elvis Dog fight fattening foods and painkillers
Michael Vick is out of jail, back in the NFL, and coming to BET. The former #1 draft pick and present third-string quarterback will be featured in a BET docu-series tentatively titled “The Michael Vick Project.”
“I just want people to really get to know me as an individual,” Vick said last week in an interview from his home in Philadelphia. “What I want to do is change the perception of me. I am a human being. I’ve made some mistakes in the past, and I wish it had never happened. But it’s not about how you fall, but about how you pick yourself up.” [...]
That may be difficult. Officials with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals expressed skepticism about the project. “People who abuse animals don’t deserve to be rewarded,” said PETA spokesman Dan Shannon. “They shouldn’t be given multimillion-dollar contracts… or given the privilege of being a role model. [LA Times]
Man, it’s amazing the way PETA can always make me side with whatever they don’t like. And I like animals. If they’re wearing clothes. About the only thing PETA and I can agree to hate is Jay Leno. They don’t like the way he supports Chicken McNuggets, and I don’t like the way he causes cancer and runs over children with his vintage cars. Probably. I admit, I’m just guessing about the cancer thing.

GOOD LUCK MICHEAL ON YOU NEW SHOW ………..
Now his rape stand is only for black women…so that’s uh, that’s something.
wtf? “Vick thought he was doing them a favor.” ugh
WTF? What the he11 is wrong with these racist fctards? This dog torturing complete POS gets a reality show on BET just because he is black guy who got allot of press, which he got for being a dog torturing complete POS. This just totally beyond belief. Fck you Vick, fck you BET.
Everyone in PETA can go get syphilis and die. (I’m convinced they’re a front for a meat packing plant conglomerate, and they exist just to make people like me look bad.)
But, yeah, Vodka is exactly right. Michael Vick “mistreated” pit bulls the way Roman Polanski “made sweet sweet love” to a 13-year-old.
He just finished watching All Dogs Go to Heaven, Vick thought he was doing them a favor.
x=s
ugh!
For the last time, Vick didn’t “make a mistake.” Making a mistake implies one moment of bad judgment. Vick lead a criminal conspiracy for well over one year. That’s not called “making a mistake.” That’s called “you’re a barbaric criminal. And you have herpes.”
@Jessica
I think they’re going with DMX’x “Where my dogs at”?
Will the theme be “Who let the dogs out?”
(badumchee)
I wish BET would bring back “The Adam Carolla Project” instead. It was a show about an actual project. Best part would be when Adam started a rant with his oft used phrase, “the problem with the black community…”
Patrick Bateman thinks that Michael Vick is one royally fucked-up individual who is truly beyond redemption.
If your kids look up to a guy who has his own reality show on BET, you are the worst parent ever.
That said, I am not a bleeding heart like PETA. I find them just as annoying as the rest of you. Attack the President for killing a fly? Get fucked.
I was really hoping that the Michael Vick show would be on Animal Planet.
because he killed dogs, you see.
I know I should have said this back at the Leno/Rock post, but I forgot.
Leno: “you mistreat a dog…” Fuck you, Jay. Mistreat? Just because your guest is black doesn’t make it right to water down what Vick did to those dogs.
Rock: “What the hell did Michael Vick do? A pitbull. Ain’t even a real dog.” Look, I normally love Chris Rock and think he is one of the most talented and funny comics out there, but fuck you on this one. What kind of thinking is that? That’s the same kind of thinking that helped to allow slavery to exist for so long: thinking one race/breed is less than another. I realize that dogs and humans are not on the same level, but the principle remains the same.
Sorry, I just can’t fucking stand animal abusers. Carry on.
PETA should be protesting The Rachel Zoe Project.
Also, those shit bags are protesting here in Albany today.
God, I’d love to kick PETA in the balls but they don’t have any. I never liked Michael Vick and I don’t really buy that he’s reformed or truly sorry about what he did. But he did his time, it’s over. Getting paid to play football isn’t a reward. Sure it’s a privilege to play in the NFL, but it’s still a job and what he’s paid is his salary.
I don’t like Jay Leno, but I’m about to go to McDonalds and buy a 20 piece chicken McNuggets and dip those bad boys in honey as a big FUCK YOU to PETA and probably a FUCK YOU to my liver and kidneys.
