Sounds like you're suffering from a dietary deficiency.

Slaughterhouses usually kill the "humanely", i.e., quickly with little pain, because that's more efficient and better for business. Whenever I find a deer carcass at my weekend cabin that the wolves killed I guarantee you nature's way wasn't as easy on that animal.

As for Vick, once he's done his time and paid his debt I don't think he should be barred from the NFL: he ought to have the same opportunity as every other felon with a recent dog-fighting conviction, which is about zero. There is a certain amount of P.R. and image associated with the league, and while they may tolerate Ray Lewis killing a human being, killing a dog goes too far.

I probably wouldn't mind if he played in Canada or Europe for a year or two and then tried out for NFL teams. That would be enough time to see if he's changed or not. But at his age I don't see him winning a job, even ignoring the dog-fighting. The league is still moving very much in the "possession" quarterback direction, where it's more important for a QB to *not lose* a game than it is to have a QB who can win it. That's not his style.
