I don't think that's the case. This was his first actual legal offense (despite the head case stuff), and it carries a maximum penalty of a $500 fine. Sure it goes against the league conduct policy, and just ask Big Ben if you need to be charged with a crime to get suspended. But I don't see VY getting anything more than a slap on the wrist for this one from Goodell. The commish will fire a shot across the bow, but I would be surprised if Young gets suspended for even one game.

All that said, Vince Young needs to be smarter than that. If you're going to be the face of a franchise and a high caliber NFL QB, higher standards need to be kept. Incident or not, strip clubs at 3:30am aren't gonna fly. He's already stated that his goal is to win championships and make the HOF. He'll make that goal easier to attain if he's sleeping at 3:30am instead of partying/drinking/fighting/getting lap dances while his girlfriend is at home pregnant.

It just staggers me that there are so many glaring examples of what not to do as far as being a pro athlete, yet guys still go down that path over and over.
