More Vick News, Stool Pigeon Comes Forward

ScottF · 05-27-2007, 10:52 PM

The NFL can't really do anything until the investigation is complete, which could take awhile, as every level-local, state, and federal, is jumping in.

Goddell can't levy a suspension until Vick is found guilty or exonerated. If he hands out 4 games, and then Vick is found guilty, he looks stupid. Same thing if the suspension is too harsh.

Put me down for 4 games if Vick is 'innocent', and the whole season if he is found guilty.

Really, I dont recall Adam Jones being found guilty of anything. He was just always at the wrong place, doing the improper thing. Nothing he did however broke the law.

Thats right soulstar.
Felony is the key word. Convicted of a felony such as this is about as bad as it gets. Animal lovers will want him made an example of. They will go out of there way to make the NFLs life a living hell. God help anyone that wears a fur coat to an NFL city on game day. They will be every where, turning up the heat. The red paint will be flying again.
Then Vick turns into a Rat! This is going to be good if it plays out like the snitch says. Wonder what Vicks made for TV movie will be like when he sells his story.
Sorry gang, I am a sick pup when it comes to these thing. I am loving it.
He should have done humans illegally not dogs. The reaction would have less severe.

" it's not like Commissioner Goodell has to wait on the investigation to play out. "

IMO the pressure is on Goodell.

I'm no Vick fan, but I hate a RAT that is knee deep in the crime also. What makes him a good witness?

He isnt a good witness, but someone DA, Senator, State Offical, will use this person to tear down Vick, and make a bigger name for themself.

I found the witness' statements to be highly unbelievable. They come off as someone who has some knowledge maybe, but who really is just trying to grab some spotlight. I bet he got paid for this interview. The media is looking for anyone that MIGHT have a valid story linking Vick to this.

I'm not saying the guy is lying and I certainly think there is good reason to beieve that Vick is guilty of dog fighting, but this guys sounds shaky to me.
