Just a matter of time for this guy.
Bucs CB Aqib Talib is a "person of interest" in a March 21 altercation involving his family in Texas.
According to the Garland Police Department, Talib could be arrested and charged with anything from a misdemeanor to a second-degree felony. According to the initial report and sources of the Dallas Observer, Talib attempted to pistol-whip his sister's boyfriend and fired several shots at him as he tried to flee. Talib, who has established himself as one of the better all-around corners in the game, has a long history of off-field issues. If charged in this case, he could eventually face discipline from the league.

Aqib Talib a “person of interest” in a March 21 shooting

The lockout means that players who may require ongoing attention from their teams in order to keep them out of trouble won’t have that support. Which means that those players could be more likely to get into trouble.
Buccaneers cornerback Aqib Talib, whom coach Raheem Morris once called a “wild child,” fits the profile. And Talib soon could be fitting into a jail cell.
The Dallas Observer reports that the Garland, Texas police department has labeled Talib as a “person of interest” in a March 21 shooting. Per the report, five shots were fired from two guns after an altercation involving Talib’s sister, his mother, and his sister’s boyfriend.
Talib could be charged with discharging a firearm in a municipality (a misdemeanor) to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (a felony), or anything in between.
“The investigation is ongoing,” Garland Police Department administration supervisor Captain Patrick McCulley told the Observer. “But I can confirm that Mr. Talib is a person of interest in the case.”
The details aren’t clear, but according to the incident report Aqib Talib and his mother are both suspected of firing shots at Shannon Billings, the boyfriend of Talib’s sister, as Billings ran from them.
Aqib Talib allegedly pulled out a gun while trying to strike Billings. Talib dropped the gun, Billings picked it up and took off running, and Talib’s mother pull out her own gun and fired three shots at Billings. Aqib then allegedly grabbed the gun from his mother and fired two shots of his own.
At the risk of crossing into the melodramatic, this lockout needs to end before a player with real needs for counseling and/or oversight and/or a direct line of communication to his head coach gets into real trouble, or even worse gets killed.
That’s not directed at the league or the players. It’s directed at both sides, and it provides them with a very tangible reason for getting this deal done, now.

Really is. They should be humiliated that they are asigned "babysitters" to look after them. But i guess when some lack morals they just dont care. Who ever told them bad press is better than no press should be dragged down main street by their balls.

Felony warrant issued for Talib.
Texas police have issued felony warrants for the arrests of Bucs CB Aqib Talib and his mother, Okolo Talib.
Talib could face 5 to 20 years in prison after he turns himself in for the second-degree felony charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. A grand jury will hear the case in 4-6 weeks, though it could be months before it goes to trial. The Bucs cannot release players during the lockout. The more pressing issue for Talib is the very real prospect of prison time.

It brings back to mind the whole lighting of basketball courts, after midnight deal, for high school aged kids in the cities. Like going home and to bed wasn't a valid option....they needed to stay safe, have fun, and hoop it up at 2:00 A.M..
Packers DE Johnny Jolly is expected to see "significant" jail time for his latest drug arrest.
ESPN.com NFC North blogger Kevin Seifert suspects the Packers have "trashed" any plans they have had for Jolly in 2011. We'd go a step further and suggest Jolly has played his last game in the NFL. Source: ESPN.com

Free-agent RB Larry Johnson (Redskins) is asking for a change of venue from Kansas City in the case in which he is being sued by a lady who claims Johnson spit a drink on her in 2008, according to The Kansas City Star's Mark Morris. "If we can't get a change of venue in this case, it is insurmountable," Johnson's lawyer, Jack T. Bangert said. "We want to go anywhere but here."

Free agent Laurence Maroney has reportedly been charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession for his arrest back in January. Analysis: Maroney appeared to have escaped charges for the incident in St. Louis when he was found with marijuana and a handgun at a traffic stop. He had a permit for the gun, but there's no doctor's note for the pot.
They claim that the public there hates him with a passion since he signed the rich contract and then tanked. There must be a few people in KC that don't do football.
Bahahahaha...i got to it first!!!! YES!!! I dropped my computer in my fit of laughter.
What's so funny about ED Khan? You'll be there yourself one day. Assuming you live long enough. It hits some folks earlier than other ya know.
Unless the ED was cause due to other materials said player was taking. I wonder if a blood test was done if some steroids or HGH would not be found? dunno:
