Noted...but so many times this is a cruel game for all (owners, trainers and jocks...not to mention bettors), just nice to see someone treat a person with basic respect regardless of what his perceived character may be.

It's no coincidence that since we've seen a recent increase in your posts, ive been praying to see more and more roadkill on the side of the road. Or that Peta would ask you to join them for more outings, lessening your post total.

Go back to the creepy shtick with the vamp slayer!!

Or...here's an idea, since you find everything I say so offensive and lame, why not just ignore my posts, that way you can use your valuable insights with others.

John, he beat his wife. It's documented. How is that "perceived character"?

Well, while I consider wife beaters to be a low form of human life, my answer is that because most folks, myself included, perceive him thusly, I don't feel it's my right to judge him so I just let that to a higher power. Put another way, I perceive OBL to be a worthless, cowardly monster...but in the end, that's simply my opinion and the fact that it's shared by a lot of folks doesn't make it fact. It's a fact that he beat his wife, it's not some law of the universe that that he therefore is of a specified character, it's simply our opinion or our perception.

But you are judging him if you consider wife beaters a low form of human life, no?

Mike Vick, 'making a mockery of the NFL' should be 'banned for life' from his livlihood for his crime, but a guy that smacked around his wife deserves 'basic respect regardless what his percieved image may be' ?!

I'm glad I dont see eye to eye with you, Buffy! Btw, feel free to join your fellow social defects in protesting the Eagles games! You guys reach new levels of lameness by the week! Let me know if you ever get to a game!!

But what I'm saying is that I perceive him thusly, not that it is a fact that he is, I used the word consider...making my statement an expression of my opinion, my perception.

Sorry but I'm actually an Eagles fan and have nothing but respect for Mike Vick and the way he's turned his life around. Maybe, instead of shooting your mouth off without any idea what you are talking about you might take the time to actually engage in meaningful exchange of ideas....but then, what does the truth matter?

I actually pulled those quotes from one of YOUR posts in an old thread about Vick. 'Innocent until proven guilty', but still not exempt from your JUDGEMENT of him.

Toast your next drink to the wifebeater Albarado!! I, too, am happy to see that he's bein shown basic respect and he's getting paid!!! Yaaaaaaaaay!!!
