This is a small time news station that they asked him this stupid question and he gave a stupid answer, and then it gets out to the rest of the world (as these things always do) and people run with it. Think how happy WAVY or whatever it's called is to be getting this kind of national coverage. Hell, this could land that reporter a sideline job on ESPN.
To me, this is very similar to Hardaway's (I think that was his name) comments about gay players in the NBA. I feel like sports reporters ask these ridiculous questions of athletes hoping to get a controversial answer that will get them more coverage. No good can really come from asking/answering questions like this.
Who gives a flying f*** what these guys think about dog fighting, homosexuality, the war in Iraq, dinosaurs, American Idol, or whatever else happens to be in the news that week? They are paid to play a sport or possibly analyze it after their playing time is done; we don't need them to tell us what is right and what is wrong with the world around us, because that's Bill O'Reilly's duty.

I agree but the problem is he was asked the question and he made the comment. He should have known better than to defend an illegal act if Vick is found to be involved. He should have just said something to the effect we will just have to see how this works itself out or I'll let Vick speak for himself. Instaead he aserted himself into the mix with his comment and his comments sense then are even dumber than what he originaly said.
