Former ‘washed up’ minor leaguer killed girlfriend’s cat out of jealousy (plus creepy videos)
I sucked at baseball, I suck at acting and now I'm going to be sucking Michael Vick.
How sad is the world we live in? You know you’re way past your prime in the game of life when you revert to killing your girlfriend’s cat because you’re jealous of it.
That’s right, a prosecutor said Monday that Joseph Petcka, who pitched in the New York Mets’ minor league system in 1992, was a “washed-up, never-made-it-to-the-big-leagues athlete” and a “D-minus” actor.
Don’t take our word for it. That’s what prosecutor Leila Kermani told jurors during her closing argument in Petcka’s aggravated animal cruelty trial.
A pussy killing a pussy. As Charles Barkley would say, that’s just turr-ble.
But wait. Let’s back up a minute. Just why did this has been hurler kill the pet? He complained his girlfriend at the time loved the cat more than she loved him. And well, could you blame her? She’s a Sports Illustrated writer and according to her, he’s a drunk.
