Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackles Wanya Morris and Chukwuebuka Godrick were arrested in Kansas on Thursday for misdemeanor marijuana possession charges. Possession of marijuana is illegal in Kansas. According to a release from the NFL and reports from the Johnson County Sheriff, both were arrested just before midnight on Thursday, May 16. Morris, 23, and Godrick, 23, were released from the Johnson County Detention Center around 4 p.m. on Friday after posting a $2,500 bond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just heard the news, searched twitter for a video to post the news and that was one of the first ones that popped up.

Rays fan clearly but decent amount of Mets fans in the family. Poor decisions regarding Scherzer and Verlander specifically, but they made the right move dealing those guys, Canha, Pham, etc last year to build up the farm system. A lot of NY media were laughing at the notion that Mets fans could be excited for THIS season as well as the future. I disagreed, which looked bad to start the year, but the team is coming around to closer to what I thought they could be. Lindor, Nimmo, Alonso, Alvarez and a healthy Marte is a nice start on offense. Many of these guys didnt hit at all in May but had much better Junes. Combined with the arrival of JD Martinez, sending Brett Baty down and bringing up Mark Vientos and getting nice offensive contribution from defensive minded Harrison Bader and this feels like an offense that can keep the Mets in a lot of games going forward. Jeff McNeil needs to go. Severino and Manaea have not been bad. The team has no ace though. Even Senga would be better as a #2.... but right now the hope to get him back is another addition that can help tremendously. Bullpen has been so-so. Diaz will ultimately be okay. Ottavino is good enough. Reid-Foley was pitching very well before injury. Fully believe they can be a playoff team after settling in as a team that can win 6 of every 10 games or so.

patweisers44 839 Posted July 8, 2024 Tigers need to reset the rebuild (again). Trade Flaherty and Skubal for hopefully a good haul of MLB-ready players and top prospects. Flaherty a rental but still a couple more years of team control on Skubal. Tigers arent gonna be contenders in that timeframe and certainly not gonna pay Skubal what he is gonna get. I believe Boros is his agent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
