They can afford a driver IMO. Why put yourself “out there”? These guys have families so respect them and yourself.

Now I hate the Colts….but really? A .10? That’s like 2 drinks (apparently 5 or 6 for a guy his size). If he had killed someone, throw the book at him…..but he didn’t. He didn’t do anything. Ridiculous.

So applying the Big Ben Rule — drink alcohol, do something stupid, face the Commish — Moala should get a six game suspension, which may be reduced to four.
Of course, Big Ben was falsely accused of a crime, while Moala actually committed one.

He admitted to having “five or six drinks” and his eyes were described as “glassy and bloodshot” in the police report. Despite that, he blew a .10 — just more than the legal limit of .08.
What does that mean? That you think he should’ve registered more or less?
_________________________________
98% of all DUI arrests say “glassy & bloodshot.” Add in the requisite: “strong” odor of alcohol and you have pretty much named all DUI purchase orders….I mean, arrests.

http://www.bloodalcoholcalculator.org/ 9 beers in one hour for a 300lb man to hit .01. Factor in tolerance and my guess is he lost count.

Polian will tell Goodell that DWI’s are good for the game and the Colts should get supplemental draft choices. Goodell is a loyal lap dog and will propose the new rule change but only for the Colts.

At 300lbs, he would have had to have 5 or 6 drinks in under an hour to be at .10

“S.F.B’s Polian will complain that it was Belichick’s fault.”
Who’s Belichick?
Did he used to be relevant?

Don’t the Colts have a problem with DTs drunk driving

Even at 300lbs .1 isn’t more than 4 beers over a couple of hours.

He doesn’t work for the Lions, so at most he’ll get a slap on the wrist.

Fili to Vincent Jackson: Hey man, what’s up? Can a guy beat this rap?
VJ: Yeah, nothin to it. If you’re good enough, the team will overlook almost anything. Even more than once. I think.
Fili: You sure bout that?
VJ: My agent, who is a genius, is betting his reputation on it.

.1 isn’t anything big … just illegal today … it used to be much “higher” in some states … however, for a 300 pound guy to have that BAC, my guess is he lost count of his drinks ….

.10 was legal not too long ago. I don’t think he would get released even if he was a scrub, at least he shouldn’t have been with out any priors.
Unless this guy has had problems in the past this isn’t a story.

It just seems that players get dumber by the day, with the money they make why not hire a designated driver
