Check this article out. The NFL has ordered Michael Vick away from training camp. Nike has suspended his endorsement deal with them. Reebok has stopped selling his jersy. Kudos to all those who have contacted the NFL, Nike, and Reebok.
Can you oops, after reading this article? How does a drunk employee manage to 40 racks of servers? There has to be at least ten servers in each rack. Wow is all I can say. I did notice that netflix was down today. This is the second or outage during the day that I have noticed. They had one a few months ago.
I have definitely changed since I am was a teenager on a variety of fronts. Some of the areas of change were my political views and my work ethic. My political views have become more centric or maybe I have stayed the same and the definitions have changed. I think it is some of both. I have definitely became more centric and less aligned with one party. I used to be a member of the College Republicans and Young Conservatives of Texas. I used to have a very derogatory view of environmentalism. Wow, how I have changed. I do not align with any one party and do consider myself somewhat of a libertarian, but I would not describe myself as one. I also have a much better view of environmentalism. I recycle and use wind-powered electrical generation. I try to consume less materials. I do drive a Toyota Highlander so I could use some improvements. I tend to dress pretty conservatively. Most of my clothes come from Brooks-Brothers. I decided a few years ago to break out of my hairstyle which was very straitlaced. It was the standard part across the forehead. I decided that was way overdue for a change so I asked my hair stylist to make a change. I was hesitant at first, but I soon decided that I liked it. He gave me a spiky on top style. Last week I decided that I had had enough of my topsiders which I have been wearing a variety of styles for many years. I decided that I would embrace the people that I used to make fun of. I got a pair of of Birkenstocks. It is kind of cliché, but I like them and think they make a good statement. It is taking a little while to get used to wearing a sandal, but I do like them and think they are very comfortable.
After reading this article it made me absolutely disgusted. If any part of the indictment are true, then Vick and his cohorts deserve a lot more jail time than 6 six years. The whole animal fighting “sport” is deplorable. The laws in the US need to definitely be revised to make animal cruelty a lot harsher. People who engage in this sort of behavior have definitely something wrong with them. What would make you do this sort of thing. It is so wrong and disgusting!I want to definitely point out that my favorite NFL columnist, Gary Myers is whole hardly for suspending Vick over this. Check his column out here. While Peter King who is the past has been for strong NFL player personal conduct is willing to look the way. You can read his hypocrisy here. I would encourage anyone who feels the same way to contact the NFL here: National Football League280 Park AvenueNew York, NY 10017
