If the NFL continues to allow these thugs and criminals to work, they could suffer a pretty severe public backlash.
You do realize that animal torture is one of the key indicators of psychopathic behavior, do you not?

TR....thanks for saying what I was thinking as I was reading this thread.
Vic... you may or may not be an apologist and just another football fanatic but the systematic abuse and killings of animals is just as heinous as when it is done to people.
I watched the news footage when that whole thing unraveled and I also watched the special that Dogtown (NTGeo) did when they adopted the "survivors". The look of trauma in a dog's eyes is just as visible and heartwrenching as in a human's eyes.
What this two minute clip didn't tell you was that 4 dogs will end up living out there lives in this sanctuary, one female was so severly traumatized by abuse and rape, two males will not allow themselves to be touched and become extremely aggressive....but hey, "in the end, they are just dogs" right!?

Continual promotion of the thuglife and apologist BS in the NFL:

MV should have served MORE time, should NOT be allowed to play pro ball again and should have to do a LARGE amount of time working at shelters for FREE!
Yeah, these are the kind of guys we should all hope our kids look up to and endeavor to be like.
