Michael Vick now plays for the Philadelphia Eagles? Pfff, what a combo… it’s pretty much the socio-athletic equivalent of sliced steak and whiz wit.
Michael Vick now plays for the Philadelphia Eagles? Pfff, what a combo… it’s pretty much the socio-athletic equivalent of sliced steak and whiz wit. Eagle fans have long been considered the most unruly thugs of football on the East coast. Actually, they’d take the entire continent if it wasn’t for the psychotic criminal tendencies of Oakland Raiders’ fans, the only American football mob to make a cameo in a soccer hooliganism memoir. And Mr. Vick, who spent 18 months in prison for convictions of illegal interstate dog-fighting, has recently signed a two-year contract as the Egg-gles new quarterback. Talk about karma; what goes together better than working class goonery and the sport of kings? Wait a sec. Is that who I think it is? No way…
Say it isn’t so, Ray. SAY IT AIN’T SO!!!
I hope that Michael Vick snaps a vertebrae in his first series back with the Eagles and while he’s laying there paralyzed one of those frisbee catching dogs runs out on the field and lifts his leg on the face of ol’ Ronny Mexico.
Jesus, Zippy, chill the fuck out.
“3. Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia Eagles) Philly might have taken home top prize for having the number one vegetarian-friendly baseball stadium this year, but on the football side of things, the city ranks third with hungry helpings of the classics: veggie dogs and veggie burgers.”
– PETA’s website
” …Vick personally electrocuted (dogs), held underwater in a swimming pool, strung up like hammocks, and slammed into the ground until their backs broke.”

Tired of hearing all this shit about Vick paying his debt to society. That dude is one sick fuck and that sick fuckedness is not going to disappear after a couple years in stir. I say nuke Philly, but please, make sure Vick is in town that day. Fucking losers, man. Have you ever been to Fishtown?
@John Doie – At the risk of losing my irony license, chilling the fuck out is not an appropriate response to Mr. Vick. If you don’t have a serious, rage-filled problem with people hurting the weak and defenseless, perhaps you should seek therapy.
@Unclaimed Smegma,
Yeah, Vick sounds like a scumbag but don’t forget you’re the one admitting to have the “rage-filled problem.” Is animal cruelty fucked up? Yes it is, but a person isn’t some kind of saint for saying so. Wishing the torturer–who just served two years in prison–to be paralyzed?
Let’s get some perspective here.
@David McTarofdavid
And “nuke Philly”? Seriously guys–chill the fuck out.
The Linc is much tamer than the 700 level of the vet used to be. That was like thunderdome. You used to be able to just piss wherever the fuck you wanted up there and people with opposing jerseys got beat up while their kids cried.
@John Doie – I think you’re right, actually. I mean, I still fantasize about swooping in and saving the dogs and all that happy horseshit (maybe a debilitating roundhouse kick to the head for Mr. Vick, depending on the amount of caffeine in my system), but really, there’s no need for me to add to the crap in the world by wishing him dead or something.
It’s hard not to, though. Maybe I’ll seek therapy, instead.
this is mike vicks’ PETA empathy test : http://blog.peta.org/archives/Empathy%20class%20test.pdf
“The Golden Rule can be applied to my life by respecting + showing compassion to humans + animals. Showing then that I care and accept them (as long as the feeling is mutual.)”
hahah what an asshole “as long as the feeling is mutual” ahahah.
he then tells this werid story about his aunt tina and her rotti named tico.
I didn’t literally mean “nuke philly.” l meant it in the ironic spirit of the web-site as well as the spirit of our times where dozing major American cesspool cities is a legit part of the discussion. Check it out. It’s my harmless way of saying that the place is KRAZY and scary and dirty and that I don’t like it. Maybe YOU need to “chill out.” Oh, but then again, I really like dogs and would not cry if Vick died. I wouldn’t celebrate it either, but I def wouldn’t cry. Why cry over a stranger? La-dee-hah…
@David McStarofdavid
You’re sad, confused and angry. Do you relate more to canines than human-beings?
I don’t care, tell me I need to chill the fuck out or whatever…but I would never hurt a defenseless animal or human, much less kill them for kicks.
BUT I would definitely love to stab Mike Vick in the heart and kick him in the face while he’s bleeding.
Capital punishment baby. The system has it’s flaws, but when a guy murders a bunch of helpless dogs then gets paid millions of dollars to throw around pigskin, the current system has failed.
You’re beyond help if this bothers you:

Raymond Pettibon a dogfighter? Get that fucker in jail as well!!!
John Doie you are right. I hope Vick just gets knocked cold and the frisbee chasing dog runs out and wakes him up with a hosing to the face. That way he can watch it on Sports Center and YouTube.
@John Doie
Oh shut up. So because I like dogs and dislike a hole like Philly that means that I’m one of those sad, ridiculous people who favors animals over human beings? I don’t think so. However, I do prefer most animals to Michael Vick and most of Philly as well. Where else can you go to get your head partially severed at a baseball game by guys with names like Francis Kirchner and Jim Bowers? Oh no, color me rotten. Philly sucks and I can say it out loud. Every guy I’ve ever met from Philly has automatically jumped to the top of my “he’s a really fucked up loser who just needs a hug from mommy followed up by a good ass fucking” list. And the women? Alky skanks who give head like they’re going at a piece of corn on the cob. My compassion flows for the wretchedly cute and submissive, but it gets horribly constipated when it comes to Philadelphians and animal abusers. Sue me.
@David McStarofdavid:
Chill the fuck out.
A friend of mine in Florida got huge into dogfighting and I watched a fight while visiting. Don’t knock it till you watched it cause its way awesome ANNND I won 1500 Dollars on dude’s Monster Pit. Two vicious dogs just ripping each other apart till one dies. Its total carnage.
^^^motherfucker get your own handle.
God, I want Vick to suffer Soo Bad!!!
All I know is, I wouldn’t cry if Michael Vick died. I didn’t even cry when Michael Jackson died, though I did get a little choked up. But I do cry when I see footage of dog fighting, or even read about it in detail. So, that’s about where I stand.
John Doie dreams of murdering his family.
Vick is the Jeff Dahmer of animal abusers.
Every NFL team has at least three sociopaths on it’s roster. Not all of them are pariahs yet.
Philly sucks, yes…. but P.S. do some fact checking on Vick’s status: He’s not THE new Quarterback, He is A new quarterback. They just re-signed McNabb, and he will (unfortunately) reprise his role as resident blooper reel, so Vick probably won’t TOSS anything – he did that in prison – but might actually be a wide receiver or running back.
The comments on this post are fucking wierding me out in comparison to what usually gets discussed on this website. I felt like I was on Fox Sports Dot Com for a second there, WHO REALLY STILL GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THIS? (P.S., I am black and live in Atlanta.)
There needs to be a moratorium on the misuse of the word irony. It’s giving me “the hate”.
I will agree that Philadelphians are fiercely proud of their city, but the sports fan behavior in these clips are really any-stadium/any-team USA. Really. This is just the less appealing side of sports fandom. And honestly, it’s pretty damn tame if 99 times out of 100 the worst thing that happens between opposing sports teams fans is the asshole chant.
And yeah, fine let’s talk about the ethics of dog fighting and the culture of football, but please–no insider-who’s-who fantasy football shit. That shit’s for fags.
Quit promoting your wack shit, dude. This isn’t a bmx site nobody cares.
God Damn It. Why is it only me and Frankie DeFalco who gives a shit that Raymond Pettibon fights dogs? Ray Ginn! For Cryin’ Out Fuckin’ Loud!! Dude is one of the most respected artists of our unfortunately overlapped generations! That’s the roundhouse after the combination in this article! Can’t you see it?!
Instead we have: a bunch of dudes fighting like dogs; some dick named Todd who thinks I don’t know the difference between a new quarterback and a new ‘starting’ quarterback; and some black dude from from Atlanta (yay) who is ‘over it’ and most likely doesn’t even know who Raymond Pettibon is.
Fuck!
Hey Fuck You. I Live In Oakland. Theres A Little Raider In All of Us., jism jigboo
Then read Among the Thugs, La Zona! You guys are in it!
And no; you can’t fuck me.
the asshole chant video – what the fuck did you expect in the cheap seats except a bunch of hostile, sweaty fatasses who’ve saved up all year so they can get drunk in the same place as the men who represent to them salvation from every dashed hope and lost dream they’ve clutched onto with a death grip since not making the varsity team in high school? i mean, did you think they’d be polite?
Vick FTW
@DEET hunerd
Do you actually believe that Pettibon raises fighting dogs?
Isn’t the whole dog trainer thing an old Pettibon joke that he runs on reporters?
Dinky and Vane$$a: damn, you two killed the joke. touche.
Sorry. I was actually Dinky right before me. Just forgot to write me name in the field. Credit where credit is due and whatnot. I’m a joke killa.
Why do people judge cities and their residents based on their teams and fans? I live in Philly, and I’ve never seen a city that’s more dog-friendly and vegetarian friendly. It’s borderline obnoxious. Picture Portland but with black people mixed in. I moved here for a job. A lot of people move here for college. The townies are kind of a different breed. It’s incredibly polarized with vegan vs scrapple/ cheese steak / wing bowl carnivores.
Fishtown is basically what Williamsburg used to be, but instead of hessidic Jews and hipsters, it’s white trash Eagles fans and hipsters. Trust me, I’m buying a rowhome from an old deaf lady in Fishtown.
Everyone I’ve talked to about this in Philly is really bummed out that our fat shit head coach decided to take such an awful PR move for the whole city.
Fishtown and Nolibs are up and coming.
i say we have man v. dog cage matches. i’d probably watch that.
