CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) -New York Jets defensive end Shaun Ellis has been suspended without pay for the team's regular-season opener and fined $100,000 by the NFL for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

The 31-year-old Ellis was arrested in November and charged with possession of marijuana, speeding and driving without insurance after being pulled over by police in Hanover, N.J., a few miles from the team's training facility in Florham Park.

Ellis' suspension means the Jets will be without two defensive starters for their season opener at Houston on Sept. 13. Linebacker Calvin Pace was suspended in July for four games without pay for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances.

the pot I understand, but how does a guy worth millions not have car insurance?

Maybe he was driving someone else's car and they were not covered for guest drivers? Or he just slacked off and forgot to pay the renewal? Or his accountant is halfway to Rio with a suitcase full of dirty money?

Cultural thing. You can take the man out of the hood, but you can't take the hood out of the man. I actually had a guy tell me once that insurance was a scam. I assume that is correct if you never use it.

Yea but I would rather have it than not.

In my daughter's recent accident, the drivers both had the state minimum insurance that covered 10K each. Her expenses are over a million dollars at this point.

hard to believe that these guys dont have someone taking care of stuff like this

I've seen a lot of idiotic comments on this board. Hell, I've even made quite a few myself.

However, you win the Heisman For Idiocy with that one.
