Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion

He had 3 blunts and most likely just finished one because cops smelled "burning marijuana". He will most likely play this weekend against NYG but maybe not against us next Monday night.

Ah, that would be outstanding.

I know people talk about beating people at full strength, but I'll take a win any day of the week.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

Holmes is definitely their big play WR, and would be a big loss for the Steelers if Goodell does the right thing and suspends him. I agree with the original post that the hammer will probably come down next week, so that would be good news for the Skins.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

How dumb to you have to be to drive around town puffing on blunts? If you're gonna do that stuff, which let's face it this isn't uncommon among athletes along with drinking, at least be smart and do it in the privacy of your own home.

Doesn't the NFL need a guilty conviction before they can start holding guys out of games?

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

He has been arrested twice since coming into the league. Both times the charges were dropped for one reason or another. I think Goodell gives him a 4 gamer starting with us. I am still gonna root for him and the rest of the Steelers this weekend, we could use the help.

lol nice.

On a side note, we should all be really appreciative of Gibbs, and the job he did placing an emphasis on character first. I strongly believe that is a reason why we have a group of such good guys who hopefully wont forget that and end up as NFL headlines. I really respect Gibbs for putting emphasis on these characteristics even when it was not demanded by the NFL front office. It seems like the Redskins have a headstart in that avenue because of the work of Gibbs.

Holmes hasn't done squat this year. I couldn't care less if he plays against us or not. We've shut down much better WRs this year.

That said, he's a dumbass. I was busted under similar circumstances when I was 16 -- not twenty-something. You'd think he would know better now that he's an "adult".

I do think it puts a dent in their offense a bit but doesn't totally destroy Pitts game plan.

I hope the was worth it.:benched:

Well, looks like a future signee of the Cowboys.

Yeah this is the kind of shit you stop doing when you're 18. You wonder what some of these dumb asses are thinking sometimes. Matt Jones and now this stupid fool. I hope the commish comes down hard on his ass. He's already been in trouble for pushing around his wife/girlfriend.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

He's their main deep threat, so losing him will definitely hurt their ability to stretch the field.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

When they lose Health Miller then it would mean something. All THE ROTH ever does is dump it down to his TE's and throw screens to Parker.

Other than the fact that Parker has been out since week 3 and Holmes actually has more receptions than Miller...you bring up a good point.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

why does somebody that has his own place and whom everybody knows keep his pot in his vehicle?all the guy has to do is smoke it at home!nobody would bother him there,he'd just have to beat the whiz quiz then.what a dumbass!!!!!!!!
if you smoke that shit at home,nobody's gonna bother you if you are'nt bothering anybody.is that so hard to do?

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

The way I read it says he was arrested Thursday, held out of practice Friday and will be deactivated Sunday. So he won't play against the Giants.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

It usually takes a few weeks before the commissioner suspends someone, so chances are he'll play against us, unless The Steelers coaching staff makes him sit for more than one game.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

He's deactivated for the Giants game.

Re: Pitt WR Santonio Holmes charged with possesion
 

Damn it! Sure would be nice if the Skins can have the NFL drug test him.
