Deion Sanders Knows Athletes Who Fight Dogs

This is unbelievable: the conceit and pure assinine comments written in a column by Former 49ers, Cowboys, Falcons, Ravens, Redskins defensive back Deion “Primetime” Sanders. 

He says in his column here that Mike Vick loved his dogs as long as they were the meanest and baddest, and having that type of animal is a status symbol, like owning the fattest gold chain. And Whatev, other athletes “share his passion” for watching dogs kill each other. 

And parents should monitor their kids’ Myspace activities!

This (Vick Scandal) is all the result of perspective.

This means its a black thang, you wouldn’t understand.

What a dog means to Vick might be a lot different than what he means to you or I. Hold on, don’t start shaking your head just yet. Listen to me.

Some people kiss their dogs on the mouth. Some people let their dogs eat from their plate. Some people dress their dogs in suits more expensive than mine, if you can believe that.

And some people enjoy proving they have the biggest, toughest dog on the street. You’re probably not going to believe this, but I bet Vick loves the dogs that were the biggest and the baddest. Maybe, he identified with them in some way.

I have three highly-trained protection German shepherds, just in case someone wants to rob my family. Believe me, you don’t want to deal with them. With one German command, our dog Yascho turns into Cujo.

Why are we indicting Vick? Was he the ringleader? Is he the big fish? Or is there someone else? 

I believe Vick had a passion for dogfighting. I know many athletes who share his passion. The allure is the intensity and the challenge of a dog fighting to the death. It’s like ultimate fighting, but the dog doesn’t tap out when he knows he can’t win.

It reminds me of when I wore a lot of jewelry back in the day because I always wanted to have the biggest chain or the biggest, baddest car. It gives you status.

We’re attacking this dogfighting ring the same way a teenager attacks his MySpace page after school (by the way parents, make sure you monitor your kids).

Seriously, if that isn’t the most ignorant diatribe ever set to paper next to a Rosie O’Donnel blog entry, I don’t know what would be.  So Deion knows other dog fighting athletes?  Deion should tell us who they are.

Thanks to BWE for this incredible head-shaking moment.
