Redefining tragedy

In response to Jim Brown's comments about how Michael Vick's situation wasn't a tragedy but a chance at a new beginning I have the following to say:

Michael Vick going to prison could never be a tragedy, because he's a bad person who did very bad things. The fact that he's a football player doesn't negate any of this. The real tragedy here is that his mom didn't have an abortion. (Think that comment is too harsh? Too bad.) That and the fact that oh yeah, by the way, the 53 pit bulls they seized from his property are being destroyed tomorrow.

Awesome. Yes, let's talk about how wonderful it is that instead of tragedy Michael Vick has a second chance at life. I'm ever so happy for him.

What a fucking bastard.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
