Bears' Hall, and Packers' Dorleant arrested in Iowa

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa — Authorities in central Iowa say Chicago Bears cornerback Deiondre Hall and Green Bay Packers cornerback Makinton Dorleant were arrested outside a bar in Cedar Falls.

Hall was cited for disorderly conduct, public intoxication and interference with official acts. Dorleant was cited for interference.

Police say officers responded to a report of a fight outside the bar Sharkey's Funhouse on Saturday night.

According to a police affidavit, Hall did not respond to police instructions and spit in the officers' faces. Police say an officer used a Taser on Hall's legs in order to get him into the squad car.

Dorleant was detained after authorities say he approached officers "in a threatening manner" following Hall's arrest.

A Packers spokesman says the team is aware of the situation and "gathering more information." The Bears have not responded to an email looking for comment.

Both men played college football in Cedar Falls at Northern Iowa.

To much money! To much Fame! To much arrogance! To much power! To much immaturity!  Think they can do and get away anything! Of course that applies to only a small percentage of our athletes but, we have to read about this stuff to often. They need to be punished more harshly.

I can't imagine what it must be like to have 70,000 people cheering you on at a stadium.  Getting 1/2 million dollars per game.  (per week)  And being under 30 years old.  That has got to swell ones head.  Or both of them.  The true meaning of  money is no object....

 USF's Childs shot, arrested after road rage incident.
 
 :reporter; News was posted 1hr. ago My..... My....And the beat goes on! :bonk:

 :coffee: ...
As he lay in a hospital bed, University of South Florida defensive back Hassan Childs was arrested on three felony counts of aggravated assault and a single count of misdemeanor marijuana possession, Tampa police announced on Monday.

Childs, 22, is in stable condition with three gunshot wounds to his arms and chest. He was shot after police said he instigated a road rage incident around 11 p.m. on Saturday. Childs confronted a male driver --- whose wife and 3-year-old son were in his vehicle --- outside of an apartment building.

“Childs pulled to the driver’s side of Jimenez’s vehicle and pointed a silver handgun toward Jovanni Jimenez,” the Tampa police said in a statement. “In fear of his life and his family’s life, Jovanni Jimenez fired three rounds at Childs.”

Jimenez then drove home and called 911.

Both Jimenez and Childs have concealed weapons permits, according to police. Police said officers recovered a loaded firearm and 20 grams of marijuana from Childs' Chevrolet Malibu.

"Thankfully Hassan is in stable condition and being well-cared for, and no one else was injured," USF head coach Charlie Strong said in a statement to the Tampa Bay Times. "There is an ongoing investigation of the incident, and we are in the process of gathering further information. Out of respect for the integrity of the investigation, we cannot comment further at this time."

                 Today in the sports news :coffee:.....

Another scum bag to add to the list of bad seeds.

BOSTON (AP) Chicago Bears wide receiver Deonte Thompson has testified in the double-murder trial of ex-NFL star Aaron Hernandez.

The former New England Patriots tight end played football with Thompson at the University of Florida.

Thompson testified Monday about a Florida party he invited Hernandez to in February 2013. Hernandez smiled when Thompson referred to him as ''my guy.''

Thompson's team, then the Baltimore Ravens, had just won the Super Bowl. Thompson said he remembers Hernandez introducing Alexander Bradley as ''my homie'' and said they appeared to be good friends.

Prosecutors say Hernandez shot Bradley days later because he feared Bradley would tell authorities he saw Hernandez kill two men in Boston in July 2012. Defense lawyers say Bradley shot the men over a drug deal.

Prosecutors began presenting their case this month.

Generally so but Sharky's doesn't mess around. When I was about 19 or 20 I got a ban from Sharky's. They have been known for their police presence for a while now, can't believe someone would go there with the intention of getting wild. I had my choice of never come back again or go downtown, had 2 cops and manager there to "supervise" my choice...

    NFL suspends free-agent safety T.J. McDonald eight games


 




   :coffee:  ......     
T.J. McDonald is currently a free agent and, when he does eventually sign with an NFL team, he'll have to wait half a season before he can play.

The former Rams safety was suspended eight games for violating the NFL's Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse, the league announced Wednesday.

The suspension stems from McDonald's arrest last May, when he was charged with driving underinfluence of a substance other than alcoholr the  in Woodland Hills, Calif.The 26-year-old McDonald was formally charged in September and pleaded guilty in January to a misdemeanor count of reckless driving involving drugs or alcohol.

He was sentenced to three years' probation and fined $390 plus penalties as part of a plea agreement. McDonald also has to complete a one-month live-in drug program, attend alcohol and narcotics classes and perform 200 hours of community service.

McDonald was arrested when he hit a parked car May 10, but did wait for police to arrive. McDonald was also ordered in January to pay restitution to the driver of the other vehicle.

McDonald, a third-round pick from USC in 2013, took a free-agent visit to Miami on the same day he learned of his suspension,  according to ESPN.com.

Seahawks' Trevone Boykin Arrested for Second Time in 11 Days. :imstupid:

 :coffee:
We were hoping this was an incorrect report, but it seems as if some trouble is brewing for the Seattle Seahawks this offseason. :doah:

Marshawn Lynch possibly coming back to a new team? We thought that was enough. Now Richard Sherman trade rumors? Come on.

Trevone Boykin arrested for the second time in 11 days?
Not good. tut_tut-3315.gif

 :police:
Russell Wilson's backup is having a bit of an issue staying out of trouble. As if his first arrest wasn't enough, Boykin was booked again for reportedly violating his parole -- which was set in June of 2016 after an incident with police following the Alamo Bowl -- because of that late March incident.

 :police:
"Boykin was taken into custody at 1:35 PM on Thursday and released a few hours later on $2,500 bond. He'll be arraigned on May 3," according to TMZ Sports.

"He's facing up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine." :happy1:

At this point, we don't know what this means for the former TCU star, but based on the way teams have recently been handling players that have had recurring issues with the law, this could mean the end of his career with the Seahawks.

                                   49ers cut CB Brock after domestic violence arrest  tut_tut-3315.gif
 
 :reporter; Sports Illustrated

 :doah:
The 49ers released starting cornerback Tramaine Brock on Friday afternoon, one day after he was arrested in Santa Clara on a domestic violence charge involving his girlfriend.
Other than a terse, one-sentence statement, the team had no comment. But that spoke volumes considering that Brock’s arrest was the 15th for a 49ers player since 2012, the first under the new regime of general manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan.

Brock made bail and was released at noon Friday after being arrested the night before on suspicion of felony domestic violence. He had no comment when he left the police station, and his agent didn’t return calls.

The 5-foot-10, 197-pound Brock started all 16 games at cornerback last season and 40 for the team in his seven-season career. He was one of five players remaining from the 49ers’ most recent Super Bowl appearance.

Brock, 28, was arrested about 9:35 p.m. Thursday in Santa Clara. The incident allegedly took place at Brock's residence, less than a mile from the team’s headquarters.

Police called to investigate a domestic dispute discovered a woman, whom Brock apparently had been dating, with visible injuries, said Lt. Dan Moreno of the Santa Clara Police Department.

She was not transported to the hospital, Moreno added.

Brock was arrested and booked into the Santa Clara County Jail. Brock did not have any prior domestic violence calls in Santa Clara, Moreno said.

At their Jan. 30 introductory news conference, Lynch and Shanahan discussed how they hoped to alter the culture of the team.

“We’re going to hold people accountable,” Shanahan said. “We’re going to do it the right way.”

Lynch elaborated by emphasizing that the team will consist of players with “great character, football character and we’re going to have guys that are interested in making their community a better place.”

The string of 49ers’ arrests began in 2012 when suspended now-Raiders linebacker Aldon Smith was charged with DUI in Miami Beach. Before Thursday, the most recent had been in September when tight end Bruce Miller was arrested for assaulting an elderly man and his son in a San Francisco hotel. The team cut Miller, as it was his second arrest in two years.

Brock has spent his entire career with San Francisco. He joined the team in 2010 as an undrafted free agent out of Belhaven University in Jackson, Miss.

Brock’s removal leaves the 49ers with only four players who played in the Super Bowl in February 2013 — tackle Joe Staley, center Daniel Kilgore, tight end Garrett Celek and linebacker Ahmad Brooks.

It also leaves San Francisco with two starting cornerback vacancies, as Lynch said last month that Jimmie Ward is moving to free safety.

Rashard Robinson, a fourth-round pick last year, Dontae Johnson and Keith Reaser are the next men up, and the team could also add a corner in three weeks at the NFL draft. Ohio State's Marshon Lattimore, a projected top-five pick, visited the 49ers facility earlier in the week.

Ex-NFL WR Young sentenced to 4 years in prison :bonk:
 

The tragic tale of Titus Young entered another chapter when the former Detroit Lions receiver was sentenced to four years in prison.
This sentence, reported by TMZ Sports, stems from a 2016 incident in which the young man left a court-ordered mental health facility and promptly got involved in a vicious street fight with his neighbor.

“According to court records, Young recently pled no contest to 1 count of felony battery causing serious bodily injury … and was sentenced to four years in state prison.”

 :popcorn: .. training-087 :taz:
 This follows a long line of outrageous off-field incidents that ended Young’s NFL career early (after just two seasons with the Lions). He has been arrested multiple times in the past, has been hospitalized for mental health issues and avoided a prison sentence back in 2015 after being charged with felony assault, receiving five years of probation instead .

At this point, we sincerely hope Young gets the help he needs. Once a promising young up-and-coming receiver, he still has the rest of his life to live at the age of 27.

Ex-NFL star Aaron Hernandez hangs himself in his prison cell.

 :popcorn: ....
BOSTON (AP) -- Hours before his former New England Patriots teammates were due to visit the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory, prison officials say, Aaron Hernandez tied one end of his bedsheet to a window and the other around his neck and hanged himself.


 :coffee:
In a maximum-security prison outside Boston, about an hour from the stadium where he played alongside stars like Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowsi, Hernandez jammed the door to his one-man cell lest guards try to stop him, and put an early end to the life-without-parole sentence he received for a 2013 murder.

He was 27.

It was the last act in the downfall of an athlete who once seemed to have everything -- including a five-year $40 million contract extension -- and threw it all away.

The former NFL star's death left friends, family and his legal team shocked and in disbelief, searching for an explanation. Just last Friday, Hernandez was acquitted in a separate murder case.

"There were no conversations or correspondence from Aaron to his family or legal team that would have indicated anything like this was possible," said his attorney, Jose Baez.

"Aaron was looking forward to an opportunity for a second chance to prove his innocence. Those who love and care about him are heartbroken and determined to find the truth surrounding his untimely death."



Guards found Hernandez shortly after 3 a.m. Wednesday at the state prison in Shirley, Correction Department spokesman Christopher Fallon said. The former tight end was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead about an hour later.

Fallon said he was not aware of any suicide note and officials had no reason to believe Hernandez was suicidal. Otherwise, he would have been transferred to a mental health unit, Fallon said.

The Worcester County district attorney's office and the Correction Department are investigating.

The Patriots had no immediate comment. At the White House event in the afternoon, President Donald Trump congratulated the Super Bowl champions but made no mention of Hernandez.

A star tight end for the University of Florida when it won the 2008 national championship, Hernandez dropped to the fourth round of the NFL draft because of trouble in college that included a failed drug test and a bar fight. His name had also come up in an investigation into a shooting.

Still, he was a productive tight end for the Patriots for three seasons. After catching 79 passes for 910 yards and seven touchdowns in his second year to help the team reach the Super Bowl.

But the Patriots released him in 2013, shortly after he was arrested in the killing of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd, who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee. Hernandez was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

Last week, Hernandez was acquitted in the 2012 drive-by shootings of two men in Boston. As the jury was deliberating, cameras spied Hernandez blowing kisses to the young daughter he fathered with fianc?e Shayanna Jenkins.

Prosecutors said he gunned the two men down after one accidentally spilled a drink on him in a nightclub. Hernandez then got a tattoo of a handgun and the words "God Forgives" to commemorate the crime, according to prosecutors.

Investigators suggested Hernandez shot Lloyd to keep him quiet about the two earlier killings.

In the Dorchester neighborhood where Lloyd grew up, a family friend of the victim wondered if Hernandez could no longer bear the weight of his crime and his squandered potential.

"I just think it got to him -- the guilt," Mixson Philip said. "Each man has to live with himself. You can put on an act like nothing happened, but you've got a soul. You've got a heart. You can't say you don't think about these things. There's no going around that."

Miami Dolphins center Mike Pouncey said on Instagram that he spoke with his former college teammate a day earlier.

"Today my heart hurts as I got the worse news I could have imagined," he said. "I will forever miss you and love you bro."

Friends were also grieving in Connecticut, where Hernandez was raised.

"Especially after him getting acquitted of the double murder. That was a positive thing in our minds," said Alex Cugno, who grew up with Hernandez in Bristol.

"I don't believe that he would have killed himself. It just doesn't add up. It's fishy. It makes you wonder what really went on behind those walls in prison."

  Ex-Cowboy Randle found guilty in aggravated battery training-087 case.

4/21/17

 
 :reporter;
Former Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle was found guilty of two counts of aggravated battery, criminal threat, aggravated burglary, and possession of marijuana on Friday, according to TMZ Sports.
It was alleged that Randle backed his car into three people while leaving a party back in February 2016. Randle was also alleged to have got into a violent altercation training-087 at the party prior to leaving, as well as running from police when officers later attempted to serve him with a warrant for the incident.

Akeam Ashford of KWCH recounted the strange events that took place after the 25-year-old was found guilty, with the ex-running back apparently confused by the proceedings:



Judge O'Conner asks Randle if he has any questions about what happened. Randle replied, "I don't understand what just happened." :scratch: :bonk:

Khaseem Greene was charged with unlawful weapon possession in a Dec. 3, 2016, shooting in Elizabeth, where he is from.

Greene originally was charged in the case on Jan. 4 and then signed with the Chiefs on Jan. 21. A spokesman for the Chiefs did not immediately reply to an email to answer whether the team knew of the original charges when he first signed.

Greene and his lawyer did not immediately reply to phone messages seeking comment.

NJ.com reports (http://bit.ly/2q4jdTW ) a criminal complaint says Greene was seen on camera handing a gun to another man who fired into a crowd. His co-defendant was charged with aggravated assault, but the extent of the victim's injuries was not known.

Greene last played a game in 2014 for the Chicago Bears, who drafted him in the fourth round of the 2013 draft.

He appeared in 25 games with six starts over two seasons for Chicago. He had 60 1/2 tackles, one interception and one forced fumble to go with seven special-teams stops.

Greene wore No. 52 for the Bears to pay tribute to his friend and former Rutgers teammate Eric LeGrand, who was paralyzed while playing for Rutgers in 2010.

Greene was the Big East Defensive Player of the Year in 2011 and 2012.

 confused-3316.gif EX-NFL LB McClain arrested on marijuana, firearm charges :bonk: ......."same-O-same-O"  :doah:

5/12/17

 :reporter;
Former NFL linebacker Rolando McClain was arrested in Alabama and charged with numerous offenses, including weapons and drug charges, according to Morgan County, Alabama Sheriff's Department.
According to the Decatur Daily, McClain was part of a traffic stop in which officers pulled over a vehicle for a window tint violation

Officers smelled marijuana upon approaching the vehicle and conducted a search.

McClain was found with marijuana and he also had a firearm without a permit.

He subsequently charged with second-degree possession of marijuana, carrying a firearm without a permit and a misdemeanor equipment and was being held in the Morgan County jail on a $2,000 bail.

The 27-year-old was drafted in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft by the Oakland Raiders and also signed with the Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys.

The NFL suspended McClain indefinitely in December for violating the league's substance-abuse policy, which was his third suspension since the end of the 2014 season.

Poor guys just not being treated fairly!....... :banghead: Just axe him and he'll tell ya! :moon:

Report: Gordon in ‘desperate financial situation,' hopes for reinstatement

 :cry: ....
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon has been suspended since before the start of the 2016 NFL season, and he’s reportedly hurting financially.
According to Jason Cole of Bleacher Report, things are so bad right now that sources close to Gordon say he’s in a “desperate financial situation.”

Who's sorry now! ......  :cry:
After bei :cry:ng denied reinstatement this spring, Gordon now has to wait until September to apply again. Cole notes that Gordon is looking for a new agent (after his old agent dumped him) that can hopefully help him financially in the meantime. Though after what’s transpired the past couple of years that might be a bit too optimistic.

 tut_tut-3315.gif .....
The Browns have been very noncommittal about Gordon’s status with the franchise, should he be reinstated by the NFL. It’s hardly surprising, given his multiple suspensions.

Ain't dat a shame :embarrassed: ....
That said, it’s clear the former All-Pro receiver would be able to help the offense if he were able to stay on the field. After all, back in 2013 he caught 87 passes for 1,646 yards and nine touchdowns in just 14 games.



more...... :doah:

The NFL has reportedly denied the reinstatement application of Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon after the former Pro Bowler was forced to sit out each of the past two seasons.

Gordon has been suspended a total of four times for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. Though, the league’s decision on Thursday should raise some eyebrows. Most figured Gordon’s application for reinstatement from his most-recent suspension would be approved.

That’s obviously not the case! :happy1:

In 2012 Josh Gordon signed a $5.3 million contract with $3.8 million guaranteed.  I don't know whats worse: that he can't stay off the dope or blew all of his money.  I guess they go hand in hand.
