I've been watching for news on this story since I first heard it! I just hope that because he's Michael Vick, he doesn't get off on a technicality! Pro-sports players, movie stars, or anybody in the spotlight should not be immune from the law. On top of the fact that they are looked to as role models. I hope the different sports associations take a stance against dog-fighting. I signed the petition, I hope more sign it as well.
