Upwards of $50 max for a cab, and he goes and hecks himself over with this. Kiss at least 4 paychecks away and all of the legal bullcrap you have to deal with now. Smart. I wanna know how buzzed your feeling at 0.16. I need a breathalyzer.
When I got my dwi, The cops took me to get blood taking and my content was .22. I dont drink and drive any more, not even with one beer. Screw that to much money and It couldve ended up much worse.
Either that, or real cops who understand what can happen when buttholes get behind the wheel drunk and don't give a heck if you're a professional athlete.
If Braylon is already in the substance abuse program, which we do no know due to confidentiality, Roger can suspend him. If not, it's a huge fine from my understanding of the situation.
Still Celebrating his TD catch at 05:30 on Tuesday Morning??? A bit excessive. Couldn't happen to a better person really. That's one Michigan alum I could never be proud of....
I loved him when he was at Michigan, but I don't respect anyone that drinks and drives. To me your an ignorant pr**k at that point!!!
I just heard on SC that the Jets, and I'm assuming many teams, even have a program in place that lets players call for rides at no cost, like that should even be an issue. What a dumbheck goober he is to still get behind the wheel.
