First.......a view from the Philly papers:





















Now.......let's hear it for those Famous NY tabloids:

Michael Vick.....Public Enemy #1?

Let the "Vick Bashing"....begin in earnest ........

Report: Michael Vick signs with Eagles

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 13 (UPI) -- Michael Vick has been given a second chance at a pro football career by the Philadelphia Eagles, ESPN reported Thursday.

The deal went down around 8 pm last night........just in time to make the Philly morning papers:

And so it goes g.....for a man who lost everything.......served 2 years in jail....all because of a cultural difference in the way he viewed dog fighting.




Here's the PETA peoples' first salvo, “PETA and millions of decent football fans around the world are disappointed that the Philadelphia Eagles have chosen to sign a man who hanged dogs from trees, electrocuted them with jumper cables, held them underwater until they drowned in his swimming pool, and even threw his own family dogs into the fighting pit to be torn to shreds while he laughed,” said the group in a statement.


According to statistics by the FBI, over 17,000 "human beings", (young, old, black, white, rich and poor) were "murdered within the past year. Murdered by gun-shots, stabbings, beatings, poisonings, sexual assaults, and other violent acts.

I do not share in the thinking of many self-righteous Americans......who want to condemn a man for life.......for the treatment of dogs.....and look the other way........and ....excuse...murderers of actual ........people.

Vick deserves a 2nd chance.......

I'm glad the Philadelphia organization had a set "balls" .......manly enough to .....to ignore public criticism........and do the right thing.

Purple Reign...........

This one.......was for Kobe.

Last night the L A Lakers beat the Orlando Magic, 99-86, in game 5, to win their 15th NBA World Championship.....winning the finals, 4 games to 1.

For Kobe Bryant.....it was his 4th.

For coach Phil Jackson.......it was his 10th.

For the city of Los Angeles........it was an excuse for thugs.......to act up.

For the rest of America............it was an end........to a wonderful NBA season.

They said, "Kobe couldn't win, without Shaq".......They said, "The Lakers were soft, lacked heart."..............They said, "Phil, just picked his spots...to coach".....They said, "The Lakers would not win."

Well.........."they".......were wrong.

These Lakers..........Kobes' Lakers.........are World Champions.......again. And Kobe should now get the credit and the due diligence he so richly deserves.

Kobe..........straight out of high school.......speaks several foreign languages..........has two beautiful daughters and a gorgeous wife........Kobe.....whom a lot of guys are simply jealous of.......

Kobe..........Took this team.....put it on his back.....and carried it through the 82 game season....and the marathon known as the NBA play-offs....

Kobe........this ones' ..........for you.

NBA........Update

The Los Angeles Lakers, finally showed us what we have suspected all season long. They are more talented, faster & quicker, deeper on the bench........and..........they have one Mr. Kobe Bryant.

In Defense.......of Alex Rodriguez...

From "A-Roid".....to "A-Hole"..........

The tabloid papers across the New York area blasted Alex Rodriguez in light of his admitting taking steroids while a member of the Texas Rangers back in 2003.

In tests which were supposed to be confidential.....Sports Illustrated.com reported on it's web site Sunday, Rodriquez tested positive for using performance enhancing drugs.

You remember.......five years ago .......the United States government got involved....promised the players that no names would be revealed.....if the players association (the most powerful union on the planet) would let the players come clean......be tested......to finally see the extent of drug use in professional baseball.

Well...........there has been a leak. Names have been revealed. Someone broke a promise.

If you can't trust your government........who can you trust? And what recourse do you have? You can't sue the Feds.....

You do what A-Rod has done........Admit it........say you were young and dumb........and rely on the American public for forgiveness.

Only ..........this would not have been a story .... if names had not been leaked. And this really should be the story.......but .....you and I know better.........
