I think that was the case early on when the story first broke. Now that the allegations are proving to be true, even worse than first thought with the dog executions, Vick pleading guilty...the black support is gone. This was not an isolated incident where Vick attended a dog fight one time. He financed/organized this operation for five years. It's a shame for such a gifted athlete to go down like this....and even now I don't think he gets it.
