A little light? If it had been me I'd be rotting in prison. Money talks and BS walks.

All I have to say about the sentence is this: Stallworth is very lucky... It is a testament to wealth and privilege that he walked away with so light a sentence. A friend of mine had an accident when we were 22 and killed the passenger in his car. He was over the legal alcohol limit. He is a college grad, hard worker, well spoken fellow with no prior record then or since... He went to PRISON for 2 years and served 2 years probation! Just to add to the story He is black and I am white. We both met at our local bar after work today and saw the breaking news on espn.. He shared his story and we shook our heads in disbelief... We both agreed that Stallworth didn't intentionally kill the person, and I am sure he regets the decision to drive. That being said, I am saddened that my friend, was judged such, and Stallworth a to different standard.

Circumstances of the accidents matter. Especially when there are mitigating circumstances. Plus where it happened means everything. After some thought I believe comparing even DUI cases is pretty unfair since every accident is different.

Yeah I'm curious to see how this is handled by the NFL. To his credit he took accountability from the start. We all know if Vick had cooperated right away he would playing right now.

Plaxico Burress will do more time for hurting himself.

Thats because his leg got a good lawyer thats going to make sure that Plaxico pays. Plus his leg is a Redskins fan, I mean after all it does bleed a burgundy red

I wonder though who's more messed up right now. Donte Stallworth who drove drunk and ended up...technically....accidentally killing a person but nevertheless took a life due to neggligence or Mike Vick who purposefuly tortured are killed dogs. It's an interesting phillosphocial question from my view and if I had to answer I'd say Stallworth easily f**ked up more, but Vick is more messed up in the head.

If Stallworth wasn't there it could've been any other car that hit him. Without seeing what happened and knowing more behind it it's hard to say that his BAC caused the accident. I'm guessing that they found that it really wasn't that.

Stallworth was drunk both are stupid but Burress was sober when he took the gun out that night and then shot himself and tried to cover it up and still has not taken any responsability for his actions.Both did dumb things but they a very different situations.
Stallworth knows he killed someone and will live with that the rest of his life,Burress still doesn't think he did a damn thing wrong.
