It never ceases to amaze me how pro athletes mess up good things (Rae Carruth, Dexter Manley, Willie Mayes Aikens, etc...) | redsoxnation

Of course, Ray Lewis was innocent, so I have hope.
I have less hope because:
a. This is a federal charge b. This is Jamal's hometown c. This is before his fist two positive drug tests d. Chester Taylor can't handle 16 games as the starter | DrDirt

To be fair, Leonard Little pleaded, did his time, and has been a model citizen here in St Louis ever since his DUI conviction. | Whitebacon

Was he going to be on the cover? If so, damn, that sucks. I'm a bit relieved, however, as I was very very sure that it was going to be Priest Holmes. | JoshMann

I'd think it would have been Manning, McNair, Holmes, Jamal Lewis or Ray Lewis. I'd say Brady, but he had the endorsement deal with 989.

Actually Ray Lewis pled guilty to a lesser charge of obstruction of justice and received only probation in exchange for his testimony. The two guys on trial for murder were found innocent, however. | Von Maestro

I thought he did his time for a vehicular manslaughter conviction, not just a simple DUI...?
I would hope that killing someone while driving drunk would be enough of a sobering experience (pun kinda not intended ;-) that Little WOULD be a model citizen from here on out!! | StaggerLee

| #16 Posted on 26.2.04 1331.54 Reposted on: 26.2.11 1334.12 | If I recall correctly, Little plead to the DUI, and the other was dismissed, but I may be mistaken, either way, he is a quiet, reserved guy, and has done his time, no matter how much it was reduced by his status, he did it, and didnt complain.
*edit* I was wrong: In June 1999, Little was sentenced to 90 days in jail, 1,000 hours of community service, and placed on probation for four years after pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the drunken-driving death of Susan Gutweiler, 47, of Oakville. The crash occurred in October 1998.

I agree that he served his time & answered for his crime, I just think it's sad that instead of being able to admire these people for who they are, we have to settle for admiring the way they do their time... | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
