Vick’s Dogfighting Home in VA Most Famous Address

December 10th, 2007 87 Comments 463 Views

Posted by Bossip Staff

Today is the day for Michael Vick to be sentenced for dogfighting will be. But the address where the Bad Newz Kennel took place is creating a little buzz as well:

Where once there was much yelling, drinking and gambling, and the sight and smell of blood as dog flesh was viciously ripped apart, now is mostly eerie silence. Except, that is, for some quiet chatter among gawkers, potential buyers and profiteers. It is advertised as “The Michael Vick House,” even though the suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback never lived here.

“Mr. (Wilbur) Todd (Jr.) bought it to make a profit, simple as that. There’s only going to be one 1915 Moonlight Road, Michael Vick house in Surry County ever,” says auctioneer Kyle Thomas Hause Jr., who hypes it as “the most famous address in America.”

“What’s interesting about this property,” he informs me, “is that it has a lot of, ‘I want to see where it all happened.’ Many people left with a different set of questions. I think many of them found some peace.”"No way he knew the consequences — no way,” he says. “But him doing what he did is no more right than (the government) charging him (almost) $1 million to keep them damn (surviving) dogs alive. I mean, c’mon, where are the freakin’ dogs staying, the Hilton?”

Update: Michael Vick will do 23 months in prison.

LOL @ Mahogany. Yeah, I still want that first sentence fixed.

BTW, I hope that he’ll still be able to play football after he serves his time. Maybe he’ll get out early for good behavior or something. He broke the law, but I don’t think what he did was heinous enough to totally destroy his life or his career…but that’s just me.

Sorry, but this house looks raggedy as all get out. Considering the current housing market, it may be on the market for many months unless a developer buys it, bull dozes it, and puts up real luxury homes in its place.

Regarding the dogs, I own a “bully bred”. They are great dogs, but require supervision and training b/c they are so powerful. Fixing a broken dogs takes alot of love, patience and training. I hope that they folks who adopt them are up to the challenge.

Traycee

12/10/07, 10:57:am

Thanks for the update, Just Sit. I’m glad they didn’t give him anything outrageous. Hmmm, ya think they’re giving him credit for the time served already since he turned himself in early?

Mrs T in DC

I, too,hope that Vick will be able to come back from this. What he did was wrong, but he does not deserve to have his livelihood taken away. Justice would be better served by having him do PSAs against animal cruelty.

I would not want to live in a house where dogs were hanged, killed, tortured and exploited for money. They should turn that property into a dog shelter. Cause frankly, I would’nt be to sleep at night knowing that a dog ghost would torture the ***** out of me.

He killed a lady with is car and got only 90 days in jail–I belive this was his 2nd DUI.

No one got upset, but PETA gonna pitch a fit with Mike “only” getting 23 months in jail. Go figure.

Poor Mike. I’ll say again that I hope he can recover from this and get all these idiots out of his pocket. In the end he will pay a bigger debt to society than the crime warrants.

Bird

12/10/07, 11:11:am

As for him paying for the care of the remaining dogs, since when have pit bulls trained to fight not been put to sleep when captured? Why are they keeping these dogs alive? Do they expect to give them away or sell them as pets. Or are they just coming up with ever excuse they can to ruin this man?

Mrs

12/10/07, 11:13:am

Is a cruel evil basturd- ***** him

Those dogs shoulds be put down they are too much of a liability- they can bite things in half and if they have been tortured and in horrible situations I wouldn’t trust them – their liablities any dog would but they are SERIOUS.

I have one and his lovely but seriously those poor dogs should be put out of their misery

12/10/07, 11:15:am

@ Crap Talker that would be the nice thing to do wouldnt it? But why are there so much whispering and gossip going around about this house? Its no different than slave plantations that they built hotels over or jail facilities that they remade into some new monstrosity. And then as far as what he has to pay-That is the price you pay for being a clown. Plain and simple. I have had 2 pitt bull pups and they are the sweetest most loyal animals when not trained to KILL and fight. He *****ed up.

12/10/07, 11:20:am

I hope they make the other charges resulting sentences concurrent with this one. I sincerely would have suspended the sentence and made so Michael Vick did not do no time. The authorities do not give a damn about those dogs; they just want to put a black man in jail. Why wasn’t this a law when slavemasters let their slaves train animals to fight? This is an attack against black men. I know Michael ‘broke’ the law, but that’s how I see it, and I don’t like it.

Racism at its core. White people in this country kill other people and get a few months probation or free (like that white woman who killed her preacher husband at point blank range in his head while he was Sleeping) and Vick is getting two years in a federal prison for DOGS!!!!! *****ing racist *****s & *****ing ridiculous!!!!!! This judicial system makes me sick.

12/10/07, 12:29:pm

@ momo 11:24 ^^^

I totally agree…WTF? 2 years for some damn dogs while folks get less time or hurting other folks. For me, if Michael Vick (who physically is attractive to me)

did not act like a stereotypical idiotic Black athlete (Ron Mexico…’nuff said), I would have more outrage. I pray and hope he will use his time “locked up” to question his role as a Black warrior in this world. if he didn’t even return to football and did something else with his life, that would be more of a statement against racism than anything else. Yeah, I said it, Black man can do something else other than play sports, sing(sang!) and dance, tell jokes, sell drugs or be locked up. Can you imagine the possibilities?

I mean, they are getting rid of all kinds of sports and activities for the kids here in the 757, he could’ve used that dog fighting $$ to combat this very real issue!! Goes to show, if you don’t use God’s blessings for His purpose, he will take it from you. But only to draw you closer to HIM.

With the new law gun and drugs manditory sentences being AT LEAST 5 years…2 aint nothing..he’ll be home before you know it!

@ Just Sit

The 757 is the Tidewater region of VA. The area includes VA Beach, Norfolk, Hampton, Chesepeake, Suffolk, Portsmouth, and Newport News (aka Bad News) hometown of Mike Vick. It is also know as the seven cities of VA. Check it out sometime, it is a nice place if you know the places to visit

BTW, the 757 is the home of not only Vick, but Allen Iverson, Missy Elliot, Pharell, The Clipse, etc. Not to mention that EVERY team in the NFL has a player from the 757(past or present)! And be warned..people from here are not your typical “country folk” they are more city than you think so expect some WILD Comments from them…

Sure, Michael Vick will return, but NOT TO THE NFL. I wouldn’t rule out a Canadian league, somewhere overseas, or working at Macy’s. But the NFL, hang it up. A couple of reasons…

1. Including this year, he would’ve sat out 3 seasons if he serves the full 23.

2. The NFL may never remove his suspension.

3. IF, and IF, by some miracle he does return to the NFL, and IF a team wanted to take on the headache of signing him, Vick would be lucky to return punts b/c too much prep goes into being a QB.

And don’t forget fans, Vick never developed as a QB.

geez, I don’t know what’s more pathetic, the hype about vick getting 23 months, or this thread about him getting 23 months. As far as the “racist” comments, I maybe wrong about this, but i don’t think the dogs that died, or got beat, or tortured really cared if he was white, black, red, or purple with yellow polka dots!, Wake up people, its only those that keep yelling “racism” that keep it stirred up! let sleeping dogs lie (so to speak)
