White Sox Pitcher Wishes Injury on Mike Vick

White Sox pitcher Mark Buehrle caused a controversy when he admitted in an interview with MLB.com that when he watches the Eagles play he hopes that Mike Vick will get hurt.
The interview -- which abruptly pulled the offending quote without explanation -- was about Buehrle's love for dogs and the work that he and his wife have done with animal shelters trying to get pets adopted.
The Buehrles have started an organization that works with local shelters to find homes for dogs and have recorded PSAs encouraging people to "Let [a dog] steal home. Adopt a pet."
When Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Mike Vick came up in the conversation Buehrle didn't mince words, saying that he and his wife Jamie wish Vick would get injured while playing as further punishment for his involvement in dog fighting.
"He had a great year and a great comeback, but there were times where we watched the game and I know it’s bad to say, but there were times where we hope he gets hurt...Everything you’ve done to these dogs, something bad needs to happen to these guys."
MLB.com pulled the quote later and there's been much speculation about why they did.
