Matt could have easliy been in the same situation (didnt he get busted in his car) luckiy it wasnt. I to think the league should be more strict on this kinda behavior.To hopefully prevent the stallworth sitiuation from happening.

you can't make decisions on what COULD have happened. Gee, a player got a DUI... he could have committed vehicular manslaughter. Better suspend him indefinitely.

Gee, a player got arrested at a nighclub. Charges were dropped.... but they could have stuck. Suspend him 4 games!

exactly tougher penalty for these guys so they wont put their selfs in the situation in the first place. i bet if it were your family member that was killed youd be singing a different tund. Look at the WHOLE picture.

The WHOLE picture is that any situation can turn -- what are you going to do? tell a player he can't go to a night club because bad things happen there? Tell a player he can't consume alcohol because he could end up driving over the legal limit? Tell him he can't own a gun because he could end up accidentally carrying the gun into an airport? Tell him he can't have a girlfriend because he might get her pregnant and then might take a hit out on her?

I Meant it as a joke. "White Horse" used to be the slang for coke in the old days, dunno if it still is or not.

So when people used to say "Don't ride the White Horse", they meant don't do coke!

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy has announced, via Twitter, that Commissioner Roger Goodell has suspended Browns receiver Donte’ Stallworth indefinitely, without pay, in the wake of Tuesday’s guilty plea to felony DUI manslaughter.

What a joke. Making league announcements via Twitter?

Usually not my style to say things have gone too far in terms of the internet but Twitter has gone too damn far.

It's not an argument, nor am I comparing anything - a crime is a crime.

so does the man who took a candy bar deserve the same punishment as the man who stabbed a clerk?

It's fairly simple. When you do drugs - it alters your mind and your way of thinking. Next thing you know, you rationalize getting behind the wheel because you aren't thinking straight. Then.....nothing good comes of it. THAT'S why. Pretty simple.

so you're saying you don't think it would be a good idea for Jerry to trade for Donte Stallworth......?
