Dick's Sporting Goods & Michael Vick?
Has anyone heard the wonderful news?
Dick's Sporting goods is *refusing* to sell Michael Vick's jersey, and as of right now they're keeping a tally of how many people call in to support them of their stance-- they're FWDing the tally's to the NFL as part of a protest.
Has anyone called in, or heard of this wonderful occasion?
If you haven't heard, or haven't called, I strongly suggest that you take part and show your support for a multimillion dollar company taking a HUGE stance like this against Vick. Dick's Customer Service line is 866-677-4771, press "0" to talk to an operator and commend them of their work!

Thank you for sharing this! It is a rare thing for a company to put ethics above the profit margin. They will get my business in the future.

I have not heard this, but I do commend them on it. Im surprised they would do that but its a good thing. There will be protestors at every game he plays too so thats also a good thing. I frankly do really care about the football thing, cause they legally can't keep him away from playing, what I do care about is he has aligned himself with the despicable HSUS.
I agree the eagles don't need him, and frankly no team needs him. He was a great quarterback but not anymore.

How very surprising & wonderful at the same time. It's great to see there are some big corporations out there who aren't afraid to do the right thing.
I hadn't heard about this so thanks for sharing. I am certainly going to drop them a line & show them support & show my appreciation.
Something needs to be done since I believe the "justice" system didn't do enough.

I'm from Philadelphia, the home of the Eagles. The local news channel has been running this story and the number for awhile so people in this area have already been calling, I'm sure.
Vick has been going to the stadium and the groups of protesters for him outside are only growing. People definitely don't want him on our team. Thanks for posting this so more people can see it!

I am UK, but if I could I'd call, it will cost me around about £5-£10 maybe even more, but I will give my support any other way.
OH! Thank you Mutt :)
