There was a letter in The Oregonian newspaper today talking about how a lot of stores are upset because Nike has ended it's Michael Vick endorsement deal and now they don't know what to do with their inventory of Vick shoes. The writer suggested they donate them to their local ASPCA chapter to use as chew toys for dogs.
As the beer commercials say, "BRILLIANT".
Unfortunately, the reality of it is that the shoes will probably become collector's items and increase in value. There's a lot of sick puppies out there (pun intended).
