GettnHuge 2 Posted May 4, 2008 It was me, and the general population gets arrested at a 3% clip, and at the time, when i looked up the stat, NFL players were getting arrested at a 1.5% clip, half that of the general population. I would think it better to compare the % of NFL arrests to the % of general pop arrests of people earning over $500k per year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hines86rules 0 Posted May 5, 2008 #22 Falcons SLB Michael Boley was arrested and charged with battery at his home in Dacula, Georgia on Saturday. Boley is free on bond. Details of his arrest are unknown. Boley was immediately designated one of Atlanta's building blocks when the new regime took over, so this is disappointing. The Falcons were looking into giving him a long-term extension. They may be a little more hesitant now http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpag...980&id=3341 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"The Bills met with James Hardy following his alleged Sunday dispute with his father and say "indications are that this matter has been resolved."

berven 0 Posted June 8, 2008 I think the Fantasy Felon League might be just the thing to get us all through the tedium of the off-season. Simply totalling up the number of arrests doesn't, heh, do justice to the variety and complexity of player involvement with the legal system. You could draft right after the Pro Bowl and accumulate points throughout the year. A scoring system like this Person of interest=1 Weapon registered to player used in crime=1 DUI=5 Assault=10 Homicide-100 pts/victim And so forth could cover everything from misdemeanors to capital offenses. You could even include civil suits and divorces. An objection might be that such a game places owners in the position of rooting for crimes. I disagree. Crimes are just part an unfortunate of the game, like injuries. They're gonna happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think this league could explode into a real money league given the correct pararmeters and increased involvement from the NFL players association! It would have to be a salary cap league. Come up with about 20-40 crimes (post on main board for group list if needed), most frequent getting you the least points, but costing cheapest and so forth.

***NED*** 0 Posted June 22, 2008 Titans defensive end Jevon Kearse has been arrested for DUI, WTVF-TV reported. Metro Nashville police said Kearse was seen speeding and swerving several times while travelling west on West End Avenue. The officer who pulled the Titans over said Kearse exhibited slurred speach, red eyes, and smelled of alcohol. He reportedly refused a breath test. Officials said the incident was Kearse's first offense. Kearse signed a two-year deal worth $6 million with the Titans this past March, returning to the team that drafted him after a four year stint in Philadelphia. http://www.titansradio.com/cgi-bin/blurb_v...lurb=news618840 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
