The funniest part of this is that a place called "Rooster Colliseum" exists. Considering that most people eat chicken for dinner I'm going to go out on a limb and say the uproar over this is going to be a little less then the Mike Vick case.
c mon now, there's a little difference between illegal dog fighting within the US for what is for most people a beloved pet, and legal cock fighting in another country......a little perspective please
What asshole Yankee was involved in dog fighting? I'll never cheer for him again. It's always different when it's a Met. Always.
Give me a break guys, nobody would care if it was a Yankee. Maybe a few fans on this board would give crap (not gonna say who) but for the most part it wouldnt be different.
There will be other threads I guarantee, no need to go on this nonsensical tangent though to get there.
The point is valid, and FrankTheTank even admitted it, that if this were a Yankee, there would have been a discussion. Yes, it would have been from the usual suspects, but the point remains. Is this thread really that big a deal?
No it isn't a big deal, but no it wouldn't be a discussion, just like this one shouldn't be except that Yankee fans trying to make Met fans look petty for some reason, if we wanted to make fun of your team there are much easier targets to pick instead of stretching for this one. :wink:
Classless and stupid. Pedro should know better. What Pedro did apparently is the same as being the honorary captain during the coin toss, or throwing out the ceremonial first pitch....not quite the same as running a multimillion dollar illegal gambling/animal abuse ring out of your rural Virgina farm, like Vick.
