Wow we finally got rid of those

[Rocko]

So at work we sold Michael Vick footballs. Note the past tense. My roommate is having to work overnight, and she called me to tell me that all of the Michael Vick footballs have been recalled because they were offending customers. I thought we were going to put them on clearance personally, but I guess the order to recall them came from corporate. They weren't really selling even before he got caught so it worked out anyway.

That turned into past tense the moment he was arrested.

(For people not paying attention to the US social scene... one of our (former) star athletes got arrested, and just plead guilty to on dogfighting charges. Including killing dogs that didn't fight hard enough.)

He was NFL, no? Maybe they should play tapes of him playing badly while torturing him so he can get an idea of what those poor poor animals experienced.

Rather, for people under a rock.... You can't get away from it.

I vote that we let the dogs have a crack at him for a while. Just for an hour or two, till they get tired.

I'd buy a Sports Illustrated if I could read about Michael Vick being mauled by chihuahuas and weiner dogs.

If you live in the US, that is.

Not a bad idea. Tie him to a stake, pour beef gravy over him, cry "Havoc" and let slip the dogs of war!

[Rocko]

yeah we just sold the footballs. As for the jerseys, I live in Southern California, so we don't see too many Atlanta Falcons stuff out here

Apparently I am so far out of this loop, that the rock I'm under is under a larger rock... Not only did I not recognize the name, I didn't realize he was in trouble. But I hardly watch the news of my own accord.

Actually it is on the news here in Oz as well
