[quote=SmootSmack;925580]Kenny Britt...DUI[/quote]

What is it with diva WRs. Guy is a clown. Suspend his ass for a while.


[quote] Britt is no stranger to trouble since the Titans drafted him in the first round in 2009:

His list of problems have included:

• Outstanding traffic warrrants for false statements on his driver's license application.

• Ticket for driving without a license.

• Lawsuit over his alleged role in a Nashville bar fight.

• Arrest after a car chase.

• Charges for resisting arrest after police confronted him over what they thought was marijuana possession.

In June 2011, Britt took to Facebook to threaten to retire from the league, and was critical of commissioner Roger Goodell.[/quote]

Some people just don't get it. I mean, I don't even care about the whole, "kids look up to them," thing, it's just the fact they're so damn stupid. I can understand getting in trouble early. You're a young kid making millions, but after so long you need to grow up.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style
 

i think these guys should hire a driver... since half of these problems are traffic related.

the bar fights and assaults though... not as easy.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style
 

There used to be a free car service for NFL players, then the price became like $80 or some ridiculously low amount for a pro athlete. Then, if I recall, the NFLPA abolished it because they were afraid the info would get back to the team (as if "hey I got really drunk and so I arranged for someone to drive me home" is worse than "hey I got really drunk so I got in Maybach and drove into a tree").

You gotta wonder though how many are stupid and how many are just addicted. Though I don't know how much addiction necessarily has to do with your decision to drive, just your decision of when to stop drinking.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style
 

I think a lot of these guys are just so full of themselves they think there's no way they'll get caught, or if they do the cop will let them go, which I'm sure happens a lot.

Cops don't usually let them go. Though I did personally see it happen once (was a passenger in the car, player wasn't drunk, just hitting triple digits speed wise). Problem is a lot of other people let them get away with what they want, they probably figure who won't. It's a very different world they live in

But you would think after the first, second, even THIRD offense where they don't get off the hook the light bulb would come on. I guess the problem is the filament burned out long ago.

As a lover of big cats, it's easy to get a Lion and a Bengal mixed up.
