    Crossing a white line lane marker is probable cause in this state/county. I've been pulled over for it, early Sunday AM on a low volume street with no other driver in sight. I believe the Deputy was fishing for drunk drivers.

    I wasn't speeding or weaving. I was sipping a coffee and may have drifted across the line going around a curve. This is pure BS.

    And KYPack is right. It ain't as bad as it was 20 years or so ago down here...but it is still pretty damn bad...
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    Is there actually a weapons charge, or is that just something drummed up by the media because he had a gun? Even being legally cased and unloaded, the media would blow it out of proportion.

    He was returning home after a season playing for the Green Bay Packers and that gum was registered in Minny not Wisconsin? What state did he transport said firearm from?

    Does the Law in Florida or the USA maintain:

    ** That he had to get some permit to transport said firearm?

    ** That he was allowed some grace period to register said firearm?

    The real question is:

    What was he doing with that firearm in his vehicle even in a case and unloaded? Was that firearm properly stored in the case?

    ie Was that case locked?

    Lots of questions and the firearm in his possession.

    Here's the problem with the gun:

    http://www.si.com/nfl/2015/02/04/gre...sted-marijuana

    Possession of a firearm in commission of a felony "regardless of whether the use of a weapon is an element of the felony" carries a minimum sentence of 10 years in prison if convicted.
    The weapons charge is a bigger problem for Guion than the drug charge. If he wants to play football again, he has to find a way to get the weapons charge dropped.

    The fact that the gun itself was registered in another state leads me to believe that it's not a matter of the gun being an illegal model, though that's not certain. I can't imagine Florida being any more strict on which guns are outlawed than Minny.

    I heard it's because he had felony amount of weed that the firearm is then a felony as well. If he had gotten pulled over with lots of cash and a gun ONLY - he would have had no trouble (and frankly, wouldn't have gotten or had to allow for search).

    To me - it's interesting that ARod tends to gravitate toward seemingly innocent enough guys that get into trouble (Jolly, Guion).

    I think it's more that AR is complementary towards a lot of people, and the ones that get in trouble are the ones where the quotes are brought up.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

    His quote on Letroy being one of the best teammates ever was before his arrest... and he 'stood up' for Jolly. Twitter from January 6th. https://twitter.com/byryanwood/statu...55804159909888


    he may be complementary - but throwing around 'best all around teammate' isn't exactly a small compliment.

    B. J. Raji''s agent is behind the Letroy arrest. He just earned B.J. amother 1.5 million.

    That law will fall in the state supreme court the first time they try to use it against someone like Guion.

    If only Rusty Harden owned a home, and passed the bar, in Florida.

    What am I saying, there has to be a Rusty Harden in Florida!

    Question:

    Why so much grass Letroy?

    Letroy's response;

    That's Canadian grass ! I'm on a long vacation, not here for the weekend.

    Green Bay Packers DT Letroy Guion Jr. trying to get back nearly $200,000 seized by the Starke PD during a drug arrest

    At least he can pay his lawyer. If they can agree to clear the gun charge, then there is perhaps a chance he gets to play next year.

    Has word leaked if he was in the drug program? Rans, did he ever get dinged for a positive test in Minny?

    I believe I read this would be his first violation of the NFL drug policy. If that's the case, he would be entered in the drug treatment program, but there would be no suspension. I'm not sure if there is anything in the NFL personal conduct policy that would cause him a problem.

    What about paying his price to 'the man'?

    Criminal charges?
