Tampa, Fla. - The T-Shirt is black with white lettering, just like the Atlanta Falcons’ team jerseys where Michael Vick is a star NFL football player.

 

The back of the shirt has a large number 7—Vick’s number—along with the word CONVICK, a twist on Vick’s last name. 

 

Juli Bridges, an online college instructor, says she designed the shirts because she wanted to make a clear statement:  Vick should be convicted and sent to prison on animal cruelty charges.

 

“We created these shirts for sports fans, Michael Vick opponents and animal lovers opposed to animal cruelty,” says Bridges of CONVICK Shirts. 

 

She and her husband Brad have four dogs they rescued from shelters.  She says they were so saddened when they heard about Vick’s alleged role in dog fighting that they had to do something.

 

“We are trying to turn a very unpleasant situation into something positive,” says Bridges.  “We are just two animal lovers who are trying to voice how they feel about Vick and what he’s accused of doing.”

 

Bridges says they created the shirts to raise money for animal rights organizations.  They’re selling the anti Michael Vick shirts on www.michaelconvick.com for $20. Fifty-percent of the profits from each sale will be donated to animal charities.

 

“We are dedicated to spreading the word that cruelty to animals is unacceptable,” says Brad Bridges.  “People found guilty of this crime should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.”

 

Interview Requests:  Juli Bridges is available for television, radio and newspaper interviews.
