Coco in that cold weather would be great!


Now... I love that this bad press is coming out with Green Bay.
It's a bad sign for them!

Hahaha

The criminal complaint says Shields opened the door to his residence holding "a blunt" and investigators, who were given permission to search the home by Shields, said they also found "several jars of green plant material that was consistent in appearance with marijuana."

I know someone who once opened the door completely naked ... for Jehovah's Witness.
I won't... Cant tell you what they said to them.

True story.

Another day, another report regarding a Packers player whose past marijuana incident went unnoticed.

Via WBAY.com, police found marijuana in the home of cornerback Sam Shields on October 19. The authorities arrived due to “suspicions of drug-related activity associated with that residence based on parcel sent through the U.S. Mail.”

Special treatment for Greenbay players

I'm a little surprised.

I thought it was commonly understood that all these kinds of things are quietly swept under the rug in Green Bay.

In many way Green Bay is a epitome of a 'company town' -- a NFL franchise plunked in a large town of 100,000 people.

Essentially, I expect the Police Chief to be a direct line report to the Packers front office.

So, I am surprised a bit.

Been hanging out with Geronimo too much. By the way any one here more on that whole story?

This might be hard to believe, but a majority of cops are stand-up, high character individuals.

It's conspiracy minded to believe this stuff gets swept under the rug just because you play football.

Apologies if I offended any police. I may have exaggerated a bit for dramatic effect....
