Suspend Michael Vick

Express your feelings about Michael Vick's horrible behavior to the Atlanta Falcons management at the link below.

Email Atlanta Falcons

Feel free to use this letter:

Mr. Roger Goodell,

I was appalled to hear of the neglect and abuse of dogs discovered on Michael Vick's property. News sources reported that law enforcement officials found 70 dogs on his Surry County, Virginia, property along with paraphernalia commonly associated with dogfighting. I hope that you take Vick's indictment seriously.

Please suspend Vick immediately. Show the world that the NFL has a no-tolerance policy when it comes to cruelty to animals by football players.


**Update: I was watching ESPN and Emmitt Smith made a statement saying that Michael Vick is being targeted by the Feds unfairly.

"He's the biggest fish in the whole doggone pond so they're putting the squeeze on him to get to everyone else," said Smith.

Well DUH!

Look, if you are in the spotlight, you have to understand that there is a downside to that. If you do something wrong, they will make an example of you. That's just the way things go. People of all ages look up to people football players and it's not a good example to set. The Feds should go after him to show what he has done is wrong and there are consequences. This is part of the fame. AND, for Emmitt to say they that are going after him to get bigger fish....does he really think they do not do that with "regular" people? Come on Emmitt, start living in the real world. They do that no matter who you are.
