You can fix it when the laughs fade away.

"
A Charles County sheriff's deputy arrested Washington Redskins cornerback Byron Westbrook on suspicion of drunken driving early Friday.
The deputy pulled Westbrook over on Route 5 near Lakewood Place in Waldorf, Md., just before 2 a.m. after observing the car Westbrook was driving switching lanes several times, authorities said. When Westbrook opened the window, the deputy smelled what he believed to be alcohol."

Charles county Maryland becuase of it's correlation to PG county and Washington DC has stepped up Police patrols and the area from which he was drinving is exactly where the Police sit every night.I know becuase I live in Waldorf.

Yep, that's what the article from a week ago said.

Redskins' Westbrook acquitted of DUI charges after Feb. 19 arrest

What is really surprising about the article is that Westbrook drives a Mercedes. Either his brother bought it for him or football players simply make too much money.

Ahhh just cause he drives a Benz doesn't mean he has got alot of cash.

Used ones don't hold thier value to well and can be picked up at a reasonable price. As a car guy, they aren't exactly the greatest cars in the world either and are purchased more as a status symbol than because of performance.

Sorry to get off on a tangent. Good to see he got off I suppose.

He was out drinking because he realized he will be getting cut after training camp.

Well it all boils down to access. There are some on here who appear to work for networks in some form or fashion. They seem to have good inside info. But to the simpletons, such as myself, who don't want to pay a website for inside info... where do you go?

Yes PFT is not the best and it does seem like its the "Enquirer" of sports info but there is two obvious things
1- Its free!
2- Its updated frequently
3- They atleast have some truth to the stories, usually its the meat and potatoes, but they might not have the full story. and sometimes they have a no hitter just like all the other media outlets.

What good are frequent updates when they're from "unnamed sources"?

PFT is great at collecting links, I don't always care for the commentary they attach to the stories and some of their rumors are sketchy at times.

[SBXVII]

Also, at this time of year there is not a whole lot of anything happening so PFT gives us fans something to laugh at and talk about.

Didn't want to start a new thread. This could have gone in the drunk thread as well I suppose but...
