If you really want to see something ugly checkout this article from the Atlanta Journal Constitution about the father of Michael Vick, Michael Boddie. I don't know that I would believe all of the comments by Vick's Dad but the fact that he makes them is revealing.
This relationship between Michael Vick and his Dad is the situation that most African-American athletes have with their Dads. Very few players grew up with the Dad there and functioning as a responsible parent.
The disconnection of African-American youth from their fathers is the number one problem facing the black community in America. You hear all of this talk about racism, it's no where near being the number one problem. If you look at impoverished and crime-ridden communities like North Philly, West Philly, Southwest Philly, Camden and Chester, the number one problem you have there is youngsters growing up without enough love, direction and discipline. It's true all over the nation.
Michael Vick's situation is a classic case. I hear guys in the sports media point the finger at guys like Vick being spoiled as the reason for their down fall. They obviously have never been into any of the nations prisons which are full of African American men.
