Only 28? I thought the Bengals and Lions could come up with 28.

It's less than 1% of the players in the league.

My favorite teams
If they gave us the number of how many TIMES players have been arrested, the number would be 200 because of Titus Young.

Who gives a shit what they do in their personal time?
Oh and BTW, in this country, arrest does not equal guilt.

750 Americans per 100k are incarcerated, a big distance ahead of Russia in second place. THAT'S an alarming stat. But that's what happens when you have a private prison industry.

It's easy to get arrested. I don't find that alarming at all.

Arrest does not equal guilt- but being guilty of being arrested is enough for NFL punishment.
League standards.

It's shit worthy when they parade around like their shit don't stink. And we buy it.
And you're bang on right about the innocent until proven guilty thing. Still, if on their personal time, they are taking shits on the regular people who help finance their icon status, then that's shitty.

Honestly nowadays you get arrested for standing up for your civil rights.

Not really. What matters is how many times you didn't get arrested while doing stupid shit. And how after getting arrested you probably got a slap on the wrist.
Clearly its a generalization, but maybe you should take a look at the race and class proportions of prison populations. What percent do you think white, middle class guys from the suburbs is? Less than 1%?
Does that really mean white, middle class guys from the suburbs don't commit crimes?
But thanks for sharing your anecdote.

Isn't Pacman the only one who was ever suspended prior to the incident of guilt being on him... But it wasn't his first issue.
I don't know of any case you imply existing where league standards make choices before guilt.. Plenty it the opposite occurs where guys appeal and delay court cases to be able to keep playing longer. Like the Williams, saints players issue.

But hey, don't get me wrong. I'm a white middle class guy and I've gotten away with tons of shit because of it. I actually walked away with no penalty on a possession of LSD charge. Couldn't fucking believe it. Try that if you're a black kid from the projects.
