What The Hell?


Michael Vick's estranged father has something to say! Is he upset that he has no money? Could it be that he is hurting for cash? You be the judge after reading his statement to the newspaper: Michael Boddie, in two sometimes tearful interviews with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution this week, said some time around 2001 his son staged dogfights in the garage of the family’s home in Newport News, Va. Boddie also said Vick kept fighting dogs in the family’s backyard, including injured ones — “bit up, chewed up, exhausted” — that the father nursed back to health.

Boddie, who is estranged from his son, dismissed the idea that Vick’s longtime friends were the main instigators of the dogfighting operation. “I wish people would stop sugarcoating it,” Boddie said. “This is Mike’s thing. And he knows it. He “likes it, and he has the capital to have a set up like that.”
