Tell the NFL to Suspend Michael Vick -Petition

TELL THE NFL TO SUSPEND MICHAEL VICK!

Late yesterday, a federal grand jury indicted NFL star quarterback
Michael Vick and three cohorts on felony dogfighting charges.

It's the latest disturbing news in a case that The Humane Society of the
United States has assisted with since the alleged cruelties came to
light in Virginia last April.

I hope you will take action today to urge the NFL to suspend Michael
Vick indefinitely.

Thanks Paige. I've just been searching any and all petitions to sign against this Scum of the Earth! In the search I've found that Nike and Coke still support him.  >:(

I'm going to pass this on to EVERYONE I know.

The Falcons statement falls a little short for me

http://www.atlantafalcons.com/News/Articles/2007/07/Falcons_issue_statement_regarding_Vick_indictment.aspx

If the Falcons will not suspend him then the NFL needs to step in but from the sounds of this they do not plan on it.

Here's what I'd like to see. EACH and EVERY member of APBT Club of America plus those who are not members but who have a PB in their lives as Family Members to rally and march in protest against the Falcons AND the NFL.  >:( >:( >:( >:(

Well now isn't THIS interesting? I went into http://www.mikevick.com/forum/ to give him a nasty piece of my mind and it came back "critical error." I wonder why? :o

Now I'm going to see what the NAPBTA Pres., Michael Snyder, has to say. Although they must be in overload right now. But thought it worth the shot. Maybe they'll/he'll give even more direction towards putting more pressure on the NFL. :(

Heres some more food for thought....
Why not also write the companies he has endorsement deals with and demand they drop him:
Nike
Powerade
Rawlings

   I did not know Coke still was still on the list...thought maybe they dropped him after one of his many other "issues" in the past.
  Lets face it this guy has a long history of questionable actions and even if found not guilty on these newest charges if I was a company I would just not want my name tied to him.

Done!  I will certainly write to any of the companies that support that sick, twisted, excuse for a human being

signed petition and sending it to everyone I know. To say I am outraged and disgusted doesn't even touch the surface of how I feel about Vick and the NFL.

I live in Atlanta and will voice my opinion every chance I get!

**modified to add - any ideas for bumper stickers??? **

Good decision on their part.

Just listened to NPR's interview with a reporter from Sports Illustrated and then John Goodwin from HSUS.

Love the bumper sticker/tea shirt idea. Anyone see Itchmo today? & how the Pitt Bull would like to deal with this idiot?  >:(
