Michael Turner jailed for DUI hours after MNF

[PortCityProphet]

It's gonna happen too, at some point that picture perfect white person is dying from a DWI player and then it's gonna be....

"The league is out of control, the players need to be punished for this stuff, a poor child is dead because of this.

Too often we treat DWI like it's jay-walking

Already happened. remember Leonard Little

After leaving a birthday party in 1998, Little crashed into and killed Susan Gutweiler in St. Louis, Missouri. When tested, his blood alcohol level measured 0.19 percent, a level in excess of the statutory level of intoxication (0.08) in the state of Missouri. Little received four years probation and 1,000 hours of community service.[21]

On January 18, 2003, with charges dating back to 1999, Little was charged with communicating threats and making harassing calls according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police department. Little's attorney, Scott Rosenblum, said the charges were filed after Little and his former girlfriend ended their relationship. Rosenblum added, "We don't think this case is going anywhere. It was groundless from the beginning".[22]

On April 24, 2004, he was arrested again for Driving while intoxicated after being stopped by The Ladue Police Department for driving 78 in a 55 miles per hour zone on Interstate 64. At the time he had red eyes, smelled of alcohol and failed three roadside sobriety tests. He later admitted drinking alcohol to the police.[23] After being convicted of misdemeanor speeding but acquitted of DWI, Little was sentenced to two years' probation on May 6, 2005.[24]

If a player breaks the law, they should be punished. What gets me are the stupid people that say stupid shyt like the league is out of control, or this makes the NFL look bad and shyt like that. These are grown ass men, who know right from wrong, their decisions shouldnt be a reflection of the league.

And I dont think the league should be suspending players for breaking the law, let the law give out the punishment. Donte Stallworth got what? 30 days for what he did? Then the league suspends him for an entire year. The man did the time that was given to him in court, he shouldnt be further punished by his employer.

I agree that the league isn't out of control, because the players who get DWI's aren't really happening at some alarming rate, it's basically the same as any other profession.

But the league should be responsible for setting an example, that this isn't an organization that condones potentially deadly behavior.

The employer (teams) go out of their way to make sure players can get a ride 24 hours a day no matter where they are so that players avoid driving drunk. Yet every month it is ignored and representatives of the league go out there and put there and other peoples lives in danger.

It should absolutely be punished by the teams/league because it's obvious the league provides a service directed towards preventing this type of dangerous behavior and no one takes it seriously.

They would if they lose 2 games off their season. The usual fines/punishment for DWI's mean nothing to a guy making 5 mill, he pays the 2500 fine (a weeks worth of groceries) and he has the team appoint him a driver. Why would a guy not drink and drive if that's all that happens to him

I remember Leonard Little and I hated his ass because of this.

Didn't recall the people he actually killed and if they're the white bread family I`m talking about. I see she was a very white woman after all, but if you noticed I said let it be a kid or some shyt.

Nevertheless this is even more reasoning on why the league should be more strict on DWI's

Bingo. As long as people still watch the NFL, DUIs will always be a good attention grabber to say the league will TRY to crack down... but never actually do it.

At the end of the day, there are some football fans who don't care if their players are driving home drunk with girls in the car to party and snort lines... as long as their team is winning (and nowadays, fantasy football team is winning), it will never matter.

Lol at his wiki:


Turner is a skilled Nintendo 64 player, particularly in Mario Tennis, in which Waluigi is his preferred character.

These nikkas get free car service provided to them 24 hours a day. All they have to do is pick up the phone and someone will get them. Anywhere in the country.

This nikka Leonard Little killed someone with a .19 bac and got community service???

 

[YourMajesty]

What is wrong with these dudes?

Get a car service and stop endangering innocent peoples lives. NFL always about player safety, should be a 2 game suspension on your first DUI, season on your 2nd.

these dudes ain't thinking bout no car service. When you drunk, your ego gets extra big so you feel you can drive while drunk

That Audi R8 is nice as hell, though.

I know and that's the problem, if they missed 2 games because of it I doubt they`d be so willing to take these risks and endanger others and themselves.
