His best shot's in Canada, no NFL team is willing to take the PR hit..... except the Raiders

I would agree, maybe Dallas would take a chance on him?!

I could see that. You know how they like the criminal element.


On a lighter note:

Q: How do you get 53 Dallas Cowboys to stand up all at one time?

A: "Will the defendant please rise?"

There really isn't a comparison, you are right about that. But it seems to me that you condone beating your wife, as long as it is in the heat of the moment? I can't torture a dog because...it's a felony...but I CAN put my wife in a hospital in the heat of the moment & that's ok, because it's not a felony? Not sure I'm getting the logic behind that. Like I said, priorities=backwards in this country. Less likely to protect each other & more likely fight each other for the rights of animals. :doh: Makes no sense.

I 100% absolutely apologize if that is how I sounded. I assure you, that was not my intent...my point is, what vick did was habitual, what Romanowski did was not. I in no way will ever condone spousal abuse. To me, there is no weaker man than someone that beats on his wife. I have said this in other threads, but I understand I did not come across properly, I apologize. I hope this clears things up.

4 Dallas Cowboys in a car. Who's driving? The police.
What do you call a Cowboy fan with half a brain? Gifted.
What do you call a beautiful girl in Dallas? A tourist.
Why can't Romo use a phone? He can't find the receiver.
How many players did the Cowboys dress for their last game? 22, the rest dressed themselves.
What's the difference between a Cowboy fan and a baby? Eventually the baby stops whining.
Bada Bing!

Gonna use these!!! :lol:

The dog fighting thing isn't the only issue here. Does no one remember him flipping off fans? How about the Ron Mexico incident? Or the failed drug test? This guy is a cancer and that doesn't take into account the dog fighting thing (which I detest with every fiber of my being).


So, in other words, F... NO!

This is a cruel person guys. Obviously not real smart either.

Nope.

All a long I have been opposed to signing MV. Not because of the dog incident. As horrible as some of you fans make it out they were just dogs to me not human beings. He is no Pac-Man.

What concerned me the most was two fold.....does he fit our scheme? in other word would he fit in? and the second being his use of marijuana. Throughout his career at the Falcons little issues would come up similar to his "Airport" incident. was it his water bottle or not? The police were pretty positive then all of a sudden ...well we are not sure. mistakes were made. someone else could have walked up while he was placing all his personal carry ons in the tub and placed a weed fill water bottle in his tub just to get him into trouble.

Basically, I'm sure he's better then Collins. He's an upgrade. So if he can be tought the WCO which I believed he has played in it, then he should be all right in it. The second issue is the main concern then. I presume his yrs in prison have eliminated his weed issue....or so I would hope. I would put in his contract that he gets random drug tests, give a portion of his earning to PETA, and in is off duty time volunteer his time to any animal organization. If he agrees....sign him and see if he's better then TC.

Back up cowboy. In Virginia, torturing a dog is not a Felony as you put it. Animal cruelty is only a misdemeanor. It only became a Felony as you put it cause the Feds were involved.

If the local police would have done their job and investigated the crime MV would have probably only gotten a misdemeanor for the cruelty part. I think the locals saw this case as being bigger then them and requested help from the feds which turned it into felony charges.

Beating your wife is only a misdemeanor. After a 3rd charge in 20 yrs does it becomes a felony. All charges don't have to come from one county or from Virginia either. If you move into VA and have had 2 prior domestic charges then catch a third guess what ....it becomes a felony.

how come people are more willing to accept a druggie, over an animal abuser? just wondering

How come people try so hard to humanize animals?

Your druggie question: I think it has to deal with him only hurting himself vs. someone or something else.
