If you read the term "pig" here, I am sure it is in reference to the piggish bonus they allocated themselves out of thin air.... well, from the pool of everybody elses shares. So, since you are new with stocks, it is as if all of the shares of MSLP were a pie... a pie with 8 pieces. I bought one piece for say a dollar. Well... management thought they deserved more of the pie... so they took the 8 piece pie and cut it into 100,000,000 pieces. I still only own one piece, except it really is small now. My dollar piece is so small now, that it certainly isn't worth a dollar. The worst part of it is that they didn't cut the pie into 100,000,000 pieces to feed more people, it seems that they cut it into 100,000,000 pieces because they just wanted more. All IMHO....

And honestly, it does not surprise me that they treated Mike Vick and his girlfriend well... I am sure they treated them very well. They are celebs. I hope they do treat the people we sponsor in a cordial and professional manner. All IMHO

These guys have wives, kids, mothers, etc.... and I am sure that they can be very decent guys. I don't think, however, that if the bonus scenario was described to anybody that knew anything about stocks... it can be described in any other manner than other than mean spirited and not in the interest of the company and it's shareholders.
