Not surprised. Donte is not an evil man though, on the other hand--Vick-----Still can't believe Dunge is pushing for Vick. Stallworth still gets off pretty light; and I do believe he is genuinely remorseful. Vick is sorry he got caught. Just my HUMBLE opinion.

BTW---Tony---I used to be a fan.

In all honesty.. I think this is a little harsh..

Goodell hinges his decisions to much on what the general public thinks.. This was a horrible tragic accident... Yes, Donte was wrong, but he should not be suspended the whole season.. Just dumb..

Goodell is a goof..

Maybe not career ending----but a year he can't get back---and a new crop of wrs' come in the league every year, so yeah much harder to return. Total cost of Dante's stupidity-- a life and probably 15 mil--thus far. Hope this is a sign that Vick will see some suspension time also.

Stallworth's fate.................

Roger Goodell. Says he placed a "stain" on the reputation of the league.



I think everyone pretty much saw this coming.

When you get paid as much as pro athletes, drinking and driving is about the dumbest crime you can commit. If you make $50,000 a year, then yeah, thirty bucks for a cab ride isn't insignificant. But if you make $5,000,000, then proportionately, that thirty dollar cab ride costs you the equivalent of thirty cents. What the hell are these guys thinking?

note how suddenly this action/opinion ("stain") of stallworth came up after the increased talk of how it wasn't fair that burress goes to jail for pulling a gun without a liscense and stallworth only does a few months for killing a guy drunk...

They need to add something about drinking and driving to the old 3-F adage.

I was thinking that he could possibly see greater than a 1 year suspension....I think he probably has to take this and run. At least the judge cleared him to train while under house arrest.
