Remember several seasons back when Univ of Mich's star DB was busted for breaking a beer bottle over some poor Arabic grad student's head at a party just before the season began? What did he get even when found guilty? A one game suspension. When you let guys get away with stuff like that it sinks in that they are special and can get away with stuff in the future.
I'm just saying the NFL is not filled with drug addicts and thugs. When someone says Cincinatti Bengals the automatic assumption these days is "Thugs" But is that fair to guys like Carson Palmer, Rudi Johnson, Kenny Watson, even Chad Johnson?
