Since you, and others, enjoy quoting Chris Rock's COMEDY bits, he also said something else in regards to black athletes and the rest of "the black communibty" (just for you Dinsy!):Black people don't ALL get a cut of Shaq's check.
Rock also said something else rather funny and thought provoking: There is a white, one-legged busboy in here right now who wouldn't change places with me, AND I'M RICH! "No, I think I'm just gonna ride this white thing out and see where it takes me."
And, this:

is quite disturbing to read. So, let me see if I understand you: You wouldn't mind getting whipped, branded, sold, etc. and being someone else's property if you were paid a million dollars? Is that correct? Would it have bothered you at all if your "boss" referred to you as a million dollar n...igger as she was cutting you a check for that same amount?
That has got to be one of the most asinine things I've ever read. Sadly, too many people, black, white, whatever think like that.
Paul Mooney said it best on "Master Piece" when he would rather be free than rich.

Now, back to the original topic.
As a lover of both cats and dogs, I think Vick is guilty. Different from the Duke case where the evidence was circumstantial, there seems to be a preponderence of evidence in this case. And, taking into account his past history and the fact that his brother is an asshole too, I've become of the mob mentality that believes Vick to be guilty. I think the forthcoming trial will prove that to be at least somewhat the case.
The NFL is targeting stupid assholes who in this case are black. Period. Anyone who believes differently is high and dumb as a fucking lamp post. The NFL has been blessed to have two great leaders of the race take center stage in the league recently in Dungy and Tomlinson.
And, is someone really a target of someone if they give the person with the gun ammunition? I'd called that suicide with an assist.
