The Michael Vick story is way bigger than this ref scandal.
It is, but it shouldn't be. I've heard probably 15 news stories that the main thing is that now Michael Vick has been linked with (GASP!)gambling, via dog fighting. This ref betting on and shaving points off of games is far worse than anything Vick did, the dogs' deaths notwithstanding. I just don't see the level of outrage by anyone regarding the ref's actions. That's simply because the media sees more sensationalism in the doggie stories and that's what they highlight, imho.
