Fueled by the now stale and old Michael Vick dog fighting incident, Animal Planet will premier “The Michael Vick Case,” a one-hour special that details Vick’s dogfighting ordeal.  The investigative style report will air Sunday, Aug. 24, at 10 p.m. and will look at the former/future NFL quarterback, the snitches, the law enforcement officers who broke the case and of course the doggies affected.

In addition to rare underground dog fighting footage, “Animal Witness: The Michael Vick Case” will ultimately aim to “challenge the misconceptions about pit bulls and try to show that these sometime vicious dogs can be lovable family pets.”

Can we drop it already?  PLEASE!  We’re living in a world where Michael Vick STILL is getting thrown under the bus, jail and stadium but white NFL referee, Tim Donaghy gets essentially a slap on the wrist for jeopardizing the entire integrity, livelihood of an entire industry and sport.  Granted we’re talking about a life for a some money but I can come up with a thousand different examples of how much harsher criminal actions were punished with far more lenient sentencing than Vick received and that’s not even counting the public scrutiny he received and will be damned with for the rest of his life.  Did he make a few mistakes, absolutely…all NFL players get caught up in some BS.  But is he a bad guy because of it?  Dare I say now without animal cruelty lobby groups trying to shut down Highbrid Nation?
