Michael Vicks is a sadist. It helps to be one in the NFL.

In his written plea, Vick admitted helping kill six to eight pit bulls and supplying money for gambling on the fights. He said he did not personally place any bets or share in any winnings, but merely associating with gambling can result in a lifetime ban under the league's personal conduct policy.

I don't care if he actually placed bets or that he associated with gamblers. That's an NFL problem. Vick had a $130 million contract & he got a thrill out of torturing & killing animals. In his own home. Contrition isn't enough.

Outside the courthouse, a contingent of Vick supporters sang "This Little Light of Mine" and other hymns, while holding signs that said "We Love You" and urged Vick to seek support in religion. Steven Terry, pastor of Deliverance Tabernacle Church in the Tidewater area, organized the group of at least two dozen supporters.

Go home, Dr. Terry, you have more important work to do. Michael Vick needs psychotherapy. Maybe some time in the slammer will convince him to get it.
