Just read that myself. I came here to see if anyone else had posted it yet.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
It was his second offense. If he didn't have that much on him he will face probation and a fine.
I've also read he tried to eat the dope to avoid the charge.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
Second time? And this coming from a guy trying to rehab his Achilles?
Sorry, but I was a huge proponent of the Lions taking this guy in the draft, and was overjoyed when they got him.
Now, I am regretting that they did. Seems he isn't understanding that he's not back in college any longer. He has a job to do, and toking on a blunt isn't part of the job description.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
How much of his contract is guaranteed? I'm to the point where unless they legalize or decriminallize bud, that a conviction will void your current contract. No more screwing around with 2 or 4 month suspensions. No gauranteed money, no appeal to the league(you've already been found guilty in a criminal court) after 1 year you will be a FA with your last team having the right of 1st refusal. Lions move up and select Trent Richardson, after multiple drug tests that is.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
Stupid law/rule, but I agree he should've known what he was signing up for when he came into the NFL.

This sounds very similar to the Charles Rogers experiment and subsequent disaster! What a shame. What makes these fools think they can get away with getting high while under contract in the NFL? It's so stupid!! If this is really his second time he faces a 4 game mandatory suspension from the NFL. Looks like we just might be looking for a RB in the 1st 3 rounds of the draft.

Second offense in a month, but since neither brought an arrest, just walk-in arraignment, they might both fall under the initial entry into substance abuse program if he wasn't entered immediately. He could face the 4-game suspension, but its not a foregone conclusion yet. But since he wasn't arrested either time, its unlikely he'd face time under the player conduct policy.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
THIS JUST IN... Dr. Charles Rogers says that evidence suggests marijuana helps with the recovery of a torn Achilles!

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
LeShoure is a freakin' MORON! Apparently he didn't get the memo that smoking weed or even having it in possession is IllEGAL!!!
Moron.

IMO, as long as he wasn't driving under the influence or dealing it shouldn't be that big of a deal. I can't believe these young guys that haven't "made it" yet are willing to risk their career over a little pot.

 Re: Mikel LeShoure Arrested
something i read on this says he faces a felony indictment. im not sure how accurate that is but it is very disappointing that he is doing this when there are people counting on him to be returning from and rehabbing a career threatening injury. not a good sign by any means.
