Well perhaps some in this group have had their lives negatively impacted by drunk drivers and hate seeing people like NFL players who have the financial resources to easily avoid problems continue to do stupid things like this.
Lighten up Francis. They are kids. Kids make mistakes. If you want to be a self righteous Puritan, then goto church and splash holy water all over yourself and scream at how pure and righteous you are.

Meanwhile, the rest of us will engage the human experience with empathy, compassion, and restorative advice for our fellow primates over and above the retributive, pharisaical caterwauling you enjoy.

Sadly, the first thing I thought of was at least he didn't have a loaded unregistered weapon on his lap or a bag of white powder or green leaf in the console or a 15 year old women with a black eye crying in the seat next to him. With all that happens these days esp. with young athletes, he's probably looking at nothing but a hand slap. DWI is nothing to sweep under the rug. In my younger days, I was guilty of this more than I would like to admit and dodged a lot of bullets in the process. Now, I'm so conditioned to give my keys up or ask anyone to call a ride, there's not even a choice in the matter. It was a dumb move on his end and hopefully his last bad decision.
Yup......I got popped once myself,...could have had many others. Wasnt really drunk at all either. That was almost 30 years ago already. But I learned. That was my first AND LAST. Never again.

He was a good story. Even if he did wiff hard on that tackle. LOL Thought we might have a bargain. People forget he had as many interceptions as Diggs year and a ton of tackles at one point. He’s one of Quinn’s boys so I’m just going to assume he’s one of the new locker room presence that is turning it around this year. If we were to lose him I think we might get some decent play from Wilson, who I assume is hungry and ready to fight for his job back. Or will Hooker get the reps? We’ve been playing those guys all over the place.

BAC limits for alcohol do vary state by state but the legal limits are generally far below what most people would need to actually be inebriated and for good reason. These laws aren’t designed to discourage driving while drunk. They are designed to discourage drinking any alcohol whatsoever and driving. I’m sure Kazee will learn this lesson just like tens millions of other Americans in their 20’s have learned.

He’ll pay his price. And he’ll deserve it.

Does anyone know if he submitted to a breathalyzer or blood alcohol test? Where I live, if it is a well-known person, the media usually reports this info. Not the results, just whether they refused or not.

you all are sure very judgmental before any real facts come out an deven if proven he was borderline drunk lioke at .08 give or take etc etc its a misdemeanor and wont effect his status as an NFL player or human.. unless its his 2nd or 3rd then hes in some more serious trouble..
No bro. What I am saying is that I understand. But he needs to be staying on the straight and narrow. But I know and get what he is doing. Facts are is he was arrested. Whether it’s .01 over or not. Maybe the arresting officer is a pats fan. Who knows. It’s bad optics. People around him are telling him what to do. But can’t imagine being 28 and in his position and listening to people.. Lol.


Cowboys free safety Damontae Kazee was arrested early Tuesday morning in a Dallas suburb and charged with driving while under the influence, police said.

Kazee, 28, was pulled over for a traffic violation in The Colony shortly after 3 a.m. on the 7000 block of State Highway 121.

He was questioned and admitted to drinking, then failed a test.

They are most certainly NOT kids. That’s just an excuse and a very poor one at that.

They are absolutely kids. When you are 20-30 those are the years you learn how to be an adult and mistakes are going to happen and they are going to happen often. The latest neurological research has strong evidence indicating that modern human brains aren’t done developing until the mid-20’s. Kazee is 28. He’s barely passed beyond that point and still has a ton to learn about life.

Expecting a developing brain and inexperienced brain to make decisions based on the actions of say, a 40 - 50 y/o brain, is piss-poor expectations borne out of unsound reasoning. He made a mistake like tens of millions of other Americans, some far older than him, have made. He will learn from it. Crucifying him is the last thing that needs to be done. He will pay his fines and suffer the consequences of having a DUI on his record. He doesn’t, on top of that, need to also self-flagellate himself to appease self-righteous onlookers who need a show while they tsk-tsk at him in disgust.
