Paying the price for dogfighting is
color blind
I think that had Vick gone to trial then a lot of names, famous names, would be revealed and that wouldn't do any one any good. Vick might be taking the fall for a lot of people beyond himself but....life sucks.
I actually met several of the Tuskegee Airmen a few years back. That was pretty sweet
