This will ultimately be meaningless. Though you guys should see the news here in Baltimore, they are acting like its Kobegate II over here because their precious RB is in a bit of legal trouble.

Not sure how meaningless this is, Isn't he already a repeat offender of the league's substance abuse policy?

Yeah, he was suspened in 2001, I belive, however he was on IR for his whole suspention. I really think this could kill his carreer dead in its tracks.

Yeah, money changes a lot of things from a legal standpoint. A couple good sized donations and all of a sudden your charges are dropped to the equivilant of a speeding ticket. I've seen in happen out in our area a lot. If you have money, you're not serving any jail time.

As long as hes not playing in the Skins/Ravens game next year.

I think the whole country is getting tired of these "celebrity athletes" getting special treatment and it's soon going to stop. Kobe is a good example. It's not so much that they get special treatment, but that they have the money to hire the best attorneys money can buy. But, yes, these guys really think they can do anything and get away with it. It needs to stop somewhere!!!

I'm a happy man.....we play Baltimore later this season.

Well, I really think Kobe is getting the shaft on his case. She didn't even switch underwear between guys. You think she might have wanted it? What do you expect these guys want when you show up in their room? A game of chess? A discussion about politics? Nope. Atheletes aren't necessarily the brightest guys on the planet. Amare Stoudamire puts his drugs in tin foil when going through the airport. Metal detectors are neat objects. They need to have a guy that follows them around, and tells them to stop when they start doing something stupid. It's worth the 300,000 a year!
