The Jacksonville Jaguars logged their 7th and 8th player arrests in the last 2 years on Saturday, as offensive tackle Richard Collier and linebacker Justin Durant were both arrested on separate incidents Saturday. Both players missed Sunday’s game against New Orleans. Collier was arrested in Jacksonville for a DUI, and Durant was charged with resisting [...]
Tennessee Titans running back Chris Henry faces a 4-game suspension after for a banned substance. The substance was just recently added to the banned list. Henry may appeal the decision, which would delay the possible suspension until the tests are more “official”. The Titans were already hurting at running back, so this boneheaded move by [...]
This probably wasn’t the best idea in Jon Kitna‘s case. Back in August 2006, Lions defensive line coach Joe Cullen was busted for driving through the Wendy’s drive-thru…naked! This certainly earns a bonehead honor of its own, but the best was yet to come. For a Halloween party this year, Kitna dressed as a naked [...]
Oops — you can’t do that Joe! During last week’s game against New Orleans, kicker Joe Nedney showed signs of disgust after booting a kickoff out of bounds by throwing his helmet and kicking his tee. As he got back to the bench, a fan jeered him, and Nedney promptly, but not very discreetly, gave [...]
I’m not sure how often 74-year-olds get busted for drunk driving, but Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss did just that! Buss was arrested in May and convicted in court on September 4. Buss got a $1,900 fine and 5 years probation following the court sentence, and now he’s getting an additional $25,000 fine and [...]
Holy crap, does Andy Reid have some messed up sons! Reid’s sons Garrett and Britt both have some major drug problems, and they are both still living at home with Andy Reid! There’s a whole mess of story going on here — read here for more details. Son Garrett is an addict and a dealer, [...]
Phoenix Coyotes’ assistant coach Rick Tocchet will have his ban extended until February 2008. Tocchet has been on a leave of absence since February 2006 for his involvement in gambling promotion and conspiracies, and that ban was extended until next year by commissioner Gary Bettman. More details on this gambling ring can be found here, [...]
I applaud the man’s effort in this situation, but Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Joel Zumaya wasn’t very careful when helping his parents evacuate their house due to the California wildfires. Zumaya went up to the attic to grab some things for his father when a big box fell on him, severely injuring his pitching shoulder. [...]
This guy has some persistent problems that are about to get him kicked off the team. Tennessee tailback LaMarcus Coker will not play this Saturday against Louisiana-Lafayette. Plagued by many drug problems over the last couple years, you’d think the easiest thing for Coker to do was attend these mandatory counseling sessions. Kind of ironic [...]
The helmet-to-helmet hit that concussed Matt Schaub and will keep Schaub out this week again will cost San Diego corner Drayton Florence $15,000. Houston GM Rick Smith thinks the $15,000 fine for such a brutal and illegal hit isn’t nearly enough. Florence blind-sided Schaub during the game last Sunday, and it was the second time [...]
