My apologies if this is being discussed. I searched for it and didn't see anything. 

 

If the report is true, he's definitely not starting off on a good note. I mean really, donuts in an intersection... I wonder how much of an impact this will have on his playing time. 

 

He might have gotten off if he'd shared them with the cops.

wow, I thought this guy would be a stud.  I mean, he could be.  But you can't play well when your suspended.  I don't get this.  uber/lyft is still around.  use that.  How do NFL players get DUI's.  Don't teams have a person to call?

True, they are just kids. But I gotta say, I have a lot more confidence in the Bills FO than other teams FO that the Bills rookies and/or younger players aren't going to make the same type of bad decisions.  It aligns with the "high character" mantra that Beane and McDermott covet. The culture that has been instilled at OBD is way more than I ever expected it to be. To say that I am pleasantly surprised is probably an understatement...lol. 

 

On a different note 

T minus 22 hrs and 27 m until kickoff. 

GO BILLS!

My only question is, how long will it take for the league front office machine to grind out a suspension.  Does it take until next season?

Geeeez... do you know how much a man that size has to drink to get a BAC of .113? A lot!

 

Again, it would have been nice/helpful to know that Oliver blew a 0.000 at the scene, which would have avoided the rampant speculation that followed.  I guess I should have suspected that by not mentioning it and instead talking about how he seemed high on "something else," that he was never drunk.

My preference would be that it takes until the Bills arrive in Nashville. It would be even better if I could be there as a witness.

uber/lyft is around and who does COVID testing for them?   

I know some are uber/lyft advocated/campaigners but players can afford to use commercial services too.

Some teams also provide services but of course if you are breaking rules you do not want to use them.

sounds like his goal was fun and not transportation if he was doing donuts in the intersection

They are not kids and should not be treated as such. 

Almost all are legally old enough to drink and will not be treated as kids in legal system.

The problem is many have had handlers their whole careers to keep them out of trouble, stay in school and even for some find jobs.  Now majority have more money than they ever had and have trouble not just spending it without accepting consequences.
