    Speaking of football ... and Kristen and Olga I'm sorry, but the Jet's are STUPID! The got rid of Mark Sanchez QB and signed Michael Vick! What the HELL are they thinking???? Rex Ryan is a total JERK anyway!!! Michael Vick, a convicted felon not out of jail for very long... OBVIOUSLY he doesn't like animals to get convicted of operating an illegal interstate dog fighting ring for 5 years! ANYONE who mistreats animals isn't worth 2 cents! FU*K him!! I will NOT watch a NY Jets game, no matter who they are playing, even if it's my Patriots! He should be tied up and let some dogs chew on him! Justice is needed for those poor dogs!

    All I know. Happy Monday. Nuff said. Ciao.
