Leonard Little.....Rams
Dwayne Goodrich did a good spell in PMITA prison, dont recall a ton of sympathy for him.
Leonard Little.....Rams
3rd time will certainly be the charm. Maybe he can take out a family this go around.
Or, perhaps you might want to revise your interpretation of what the 'right kind of guy' is to this organization to bring it into line with what they coach has said it is so many times, in the first place. It never meant choirboys without problems to overcome, and it never meant choir boys. It always meant smart players who are willing to work hard and to whom football is important. It amazes me that people still fail to grasp that, since it's been said over and over and over. And it amazes me further that anybody would have a problem with it, philosophically.
I don't think he will ever drive a car again. So, I think it very, very unlikely that he would 'take out a family' and very, very likely that if he does 'take out a family' it will be a family in need to dinner and then maybe a movie.

Like he has never driven with a suspended license before.....oh wait.
It has nothing to do with a license. He isn't going to ever drive a car again in my opinion. He will use taxis or hire a driver. Just a hunch. People do change. Will Brent change? Yeah, he seems truly remorseful and has learned his lesson.
I forgot about Dwayne Goodrich.....So I had to look it up. Question I have is why did Brent get off so easy after reading what Goodrich did sounds like a carbon copy of what Brent did.
On January 14, 2003, Goodrich was involved in a hit and run accident that killed two people. On January 15, he was arrested on charges of vehicular manslaughter in relation to the accident. Police believed that Goodrich struck and killed two motorists who were trying to rescue a man from a burning car on a North Dallas freeway.[5] Though witnesses claimed Goodrich was going 100 mph, the state's accident reconstruction expert at trial estimated that Goodrich's car struck the victims and driver door of the wreckage at a considerably lower speed of 54 mph.
On September 8, 2003 he was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison and fined $20,000 for the accident. He was convicted on two counts of criminally negligent homicide.
On January 9, 2006, prosecutors and relatives of the deceased victims successfully sought to add five years to his original 7 ½-year prison sentence. In court proceedings on January 9, 2006, in Dallas, the sole surviving victim of the January 2003 accident, Shuki Josef, requested permission to approach Goodrich to shake his hand. The gesture resulted in an emotion-filled embrace between the two men as Josef stated that he forgave Goodrich.
During trial, Goodrich was not proven to have been intoxicated at the time of the incident. Goodrich lost his brother Walter to a motorcycle accident in 2004. Goodrich was released from TDCJ Walls Unit in 2011.
Yes, his second chance was after he flipped over his car while he was hammered in college.
Cant be trusted. Let him go beg Oakland or Cincinatti for a job.
I want Brent to get his life straightened out.
Free himself of his demons.
Find resolution and forgiveness.
Become a MAN.
Then there can be thoughts of football.

TO worked hard and football was important to him. Got to love vague terminology that keeps changing to fit circumstances.
That has zero to do with whether he's coming back. That had to do with Lee supporting a former teammate. You don't have to condone what someone did to support them.
Is there a thread of a similar incident of a player on another team?
I'd be very curious if that player got the same amount of sympathy.
