NBA Star Defends Vick
Dumb, meet Dumber.... :banghead:

NEW YORK (AP) -- New York Knicks guard Stephon Marbury defended Michael Vick, calling dogfighting a sport and comparing it to hunting.

Marbury spoke Monday about the federal dogfighting conspiracy charges against Vick while promoting his basketball shoe in Albany, N.Y.

"I think it's tough," Marbury said, according to Albany TV station Capital News 9. "I think, you know, we don't say anything about people who shoot deer or shoot other animals. You know, from what I hear, dogfighting is a sport. It's just behind closed doors."

5. I find this depiction of animal abuse disgusting.
A sport, my ass. I think a better sport would be to see this asshole and vick being ripped apart by a pit bull -- now that might be worth watching.

6. OK, let's be sporting with Vick and Marbury
Edited on Thu Aug-23-07 02:21 PM by Wiregrass Willie
Let's strip them both naked, dip them in blood and then throw them into a pit with those 53 pit bulls that were taken from Vicks' home.

For that sporting event, I would even spring the price of an NBA ticket.

7. Yeah well , deer and others are not "domestic " animals and usually hunters don't torture "prey"
Edited on Thu Aug-23-07 02:22 PM by saracat
By hanging, beating or drowning.F***k Marbury.His friend Vick should get a life sentence or be made to fight to the death. But it ain't gonna happen as those poor dogs will never get justice.Animals don't have any rights. Vicks is a sociopath and Marbary is not far behind if he supports him!
