Its a problem the owners are going to have to take up with the Union. I think the Bengals have had 9 or 10 guys arrested. There's been some kind of ugly arrests around the league too. Was it just 1 guy (the Bronco) that was shot and killed or were there 2 events like that?

I'm not in favor of 3 strikes and your out being proposed now. Its too restrictive. I don't care if a guy is smokin dope - that isn't enough to toss a guy from the league. But the firearm shit is! And the players union has got to work with the NFL on some of this stuff.

What the union doesn't get at times is they (upshaw etc.), along with a host of other awesome players are guys that made the sport great. Why would anyone who helped build a league as respected as the NFL allow punks to tarnish its image? Some of this stuff requires ejection from the NFL with just 1 incident. And the players union should say we agree
