  • Well here we go...Stallworth, welcome to the football ranks of OJ Simpson, Pacman Jones, Mike Vick and Terrell Owens.

    Looks like we are gonna need another reciever. I hope that, if he was intoxicated, he does get the full prosecution of the law. Drunk drivers need to not exist.

  • Oh Sheesh; I agree if he was DUI he should face the maximum penalty as this cost the life of an individual

  • I remember some people wanted Marvin Harrison locked up on the spot and kicked off the Colts roster before all the info was in.

    I think why most of us pass judgment on these guys so fast is that most of the time they are guilty.

    Every time it seems these players get into trouble they have a press conference pleading there innocence to be found stone cold guilty liars later on.

    These guys need to realize that the fans are not just older male fans but also role models for the youngsters as well.

    In all honesty it sounds as though he killed a man whether or not he was drunk or not is basically a moot point because there is someone dead and you will be doing time.

    The charge if drinking is going to be called vehicular manslaughter.

    If he was sober call it involuntary vehicular manslaughter. And you know the grieving family will go for the jugular because he is in a NFL player.

    So I will write him off as playing for the browns this year, or possibly ever again, and if he does play this year I find it hard to believe that he will be of any use with this hanging over his head.

    Oh and let not for get Roger “The Hammer” Goodell.

  • what a shame. I know he's on the team, but can we even classify him at a Brown?

  • ........ Talk about cursed. What do you do now if you are the team...Cut him and take the salary cap hit and use the remainder to go after well maybe T.O. .........

    what did T.O. ever do off the field

    This will probably drag out for awhile so he might still be on the team when the season starts

  • Perhaps there is some sort of out in the contract in case of vehicular homicide...

    Welcome to Leonard Little Part Two.

    T.O. is a Bill but maybe Torry Holt if he would even want to come here

  • T.O.?

    I didnt say anything about off the field. You might have implied that I was saying that, even though all I did was give example of notoriuos football players.

    My father said that we might resign Jeruvicius, even though I think we are going to wait till the draft and sign Michael Crabtree.

    And Tory Holt is still out there my friends.

    T.O. signed in Buffalo.... This is really turning ugly... I was hoping he would able to be productive for us this year and it's not looking like he will see the field at all... I'm hoping he wasn't drunk while driving. Call a cab or a friend or some form of DD there is no reason for this. It's truly an ugly situation for all those involved. I"m saying he deserves whatever punishment he receives because there is no reason to ever drink and drive... Hopefully one day he will be able to recover from this but it looks like his playing days are done.

  • Does the NFL give compensatory picks for stuff like this?

    No sir but I sure as hell wish they did.

    Wait...was that a serious question?

    If he gets charged with a blood test as evidence then he is suspended until found guilty and then I'd bet they void the contract so it lessens the cap hit. He will not be on this team under indictment.

  • That Sucks. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, having to face the fact that he killed someone while being legaly drunk. Of course .08 is what 2 beers?

    Many dont realize that you can party till midnight, and get up at 7 and go to work, and still be over the limit. Have a wreck on the way and get charged with a DUI. Sucks dont it?

    Considering Stallworth couldn't swerve out of the way will halp him. The other thing that will determine if he is charged with manslaughter will be how high of an blood alcohol level he had at the time. over .13 I would think he is screwed.

  • When I was in the military a dude from my 'flight' in boot camp went out and killed a dude drunk on leave...eventually it killed him in the end; by his own hands after a time in prison

    This whole thing is tragic

  • I also saw information where the pedestrian may not have been in the crosswalk.. so maybe stallworth is NOT dui just a bit foggy and the guy was doing something dumb... Lets wait on all the facts... but your right.. you can wake up after a night of drinking and still blow dui on a breathalizer. Let's hope he is under the .08 when the facts come out.. I repeat.. when the facts come out.

  • I read somewhere stallworth admitted to drinking the night before up to midnight.. That could be good or bad news. also it is not confirmed that the pedestrian was or was not in the crosswalk.. so this could go many different directions. No matter what it is a trajedy for all parties and families

    Looks like there's a history of Mr Stallworth having trouble with laws of the road, which might explain why some aren't as patient or willing to think innocent until proven guilty. What if the victim of this avoidable death was in your family - would you still want him to get all the slack an avid Browns' fan thinks he should have?

    If this guy was a Ratbird or a Steeler - people would be calling him a scumbag in this scenario. Instead, he's an overpaid Brown that couldn't give the first crap about producing for the franchise overpaying him. We should be reading about his offseason commitment to the program that just gave him a bonus of 4-5 million $ in today's economy. Instead he's out getting liquored up putting his life and others at risk. Don't pray for Stallworth - pray for the guy he killed and the family he devastated. He'll just get the same slap on the wrist Leonard Little got.

    Flug's with a response like that.. I guess I will add you to my prayer list too. God bless all of you.

    Don't bother! Faith is a journey not a guilt trip.

    If you remember I was the one feeling bad for the victim and his family. We keep playing leapfrog with the reality somebody got killed in this story.

    The victim and his family do not get a second chance in this one so it doesn't matter how air tight with Jesus you are in this one horse. Lazarus was a LONG time ago. Meanwhile, Stallworth will get the same slap on the wrist Leonard Little got.
