May 21, 200719 yr And we all know the high level of success that brought the Bengals after Paul Brown died ... My point exactly...:thumb:
May 21, 200719 yr It will be one less problem for the NFL and the Bengals to deal with. He has been given every chance to do things the right way and has failed in his every attempt to do so. His picture now appears in the dictionary under "stupid".
May 21, 200719 yr So, GT, does this mean he is done for the year as far as the NFL will be concerned? Surely a failed drug test will violate whatever the conditions were for his 1/2 year suspension and take it out to a year?
May 21, 200719 yr This was the lead story on ESPN.com right now (not his violation, but that the Bengals hope he learns his lesson), how hilarious is that? http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2832378

Mr Belding is going to be summoning him to New York again soon...
May 21, 200719 yr Just a guess, but Clermont County will likely now impose their 88-day sentence, Clermont County will impose their 30-day sentence, and he'll now face a probation violation charge on the Florida sentence (have to check FLA state law to see what max is on that charge). So Chris will have lots of free time now to spend thinking about how he's ruined his life. No way this guy's IQ is in the triple digits.
May 21, 200719 yr No way this guy's IQ is in the triple digits. I was thinking double digits was giving him the benefit of the doubt....:lol:
May 21, 200719 yr I will never be able to understand why these athletes like Henry, Pac Man Jones, Tank Johnson and others like them continue to waste a dream life. Play sports, get paid millions to do it and not have enough sense to realize what a dream they are living so they live the thug life and hopefully will all pay dearly for their continued stupidity.

This is not me condoning any of these guys' actions. However, I know how I was at age 22/23, and I know how I would've acted had I just signed a multi-million dollar contract a few months back. Heck, I was poor as can be at age 21 and still got picked up for a DUI. Again, not saying I condone their actions, but I understand them.

Heck, I was poor as can be at age 21 and still got picked up for a DUI. Again, not saying I condone their actions, but I understand them. Sure, a single mistake and then learn from it. These guys make one after another after another, and with the blessings in their lives that they have I cannot understand why they want to throw it all away to live like some criminal. I guess if I understood that then I would be like them and thank God I can honestly say that I am not.

I guess if I understood that then I would be like them and thank God I can honestly say that I am not. Because their status as star athletes has always been a "get out of jail free" card to them in the past. Having millions of dollars in the bank only serves to reinforce that mindset.
