Michael Vick Sentenced!

Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months in prison today for his part in dogfighting!! While I don't think 23 months is long enough it has put his football career in jeopardy, so there will be life long consequences so that kinda makes up for it! If he serves his full term he will not be released until October 2009 which would take him out of three seasons in a row! And according to a ESPN reporter it is unlikley he will be able to get back in the game after 3 years out. Hopefully this will set an example for other sick individuals out there that are taking part in this kind of disgusting cruelty! If a "celebrity" isn't going to get away with it...you sure as hell won't!! Originally his trial was only calling for him to spend like 13 weeks in jail, but because he lied about the involvement he had with actually killing innocent dogs, he was sentenced to a longer term.
With so many people out there with a blasé attitude of...."it isnt like he killed anyone...its just some dogs..." it makes me reallly happy that he didn't get away with it and our court system made a stand that yes its cruel and uncalled for and no we wont let it happen in our country without consequences!

If you want to read more about the trial just google "Michael Vick" and the news reports will jump out at ya!!

Just thought I would share the good news incase you all had not heard yet!!!
