Bears waive troubled DT Tank Johnson

[SBXVII]

Well then perhaps before we start casting stones at Tank and his "character" we should start with cleaning out our closet. I mean unless our closet is clean we should not be riding the holly train. So....maybe Gibbs can start with letting one of our famous thugs go....Sean Taylor. I do belive he had a gun incident, no? I mean some people like to think guns have no real purpose so why did he get himself involved in an incident involving guns? Then he went and got charged with DUI. Ok...he was found not guilty. but he was involved. Gotta be a thug...Gotta go. next. how about Fred Smoot. Gotta Go. Wasn't he involved in some burlesque show on the water....ok maybe not a thug per say but was convicted of something or other. Gotta Go. not very...how would Gibbs say it....very christian like. unfortunatly I have not looked into their college careers to see what trouble the rest have gotten into but I would think a good start would be Sean and Fred. Then maybe we can start the character bashing. or maybe the skins see talent as they did with Sean and sign Tank and put restrictions in place. Every one forgets that not everyone knows the laws in every state and they all differ. He may not be responsible to register in Arizona. He's young and stupid. I see these types of people all the time. I'm not saying he's a saint. but keep in mind some people have alot of talent and they are not legal smart. not everyone thinks to check laws that might effect them when moving to a new county let alone state. DUI. slap him and get it over with. The NFL is not the Federal Gov. We are not talking Ricky Williams here or Pacman( who seems to love his possie more then his paycheck and career). If I'm not mistaken he's not the only NFL player to get a DUI. If he was not disrespectful to the police and followed directions then chalk it up to being young and stupid. I'm sure put in the right environment (as Fred Smoot said) Tank may flourish and keep the peace.
