Off-season Antics

Overall, the players on the Pats seem to stay out of legal trouble. You can't say that for the rest of the league. Lions DT Nick Fairley is a shining example of how to do it wrong.

First he got arrested in Mobile, AL on a misdemeanor marijuana possession charge. This past weekend, he was stopped by a state trooper in Alabama for driving 100 m.p.h. He didn't stop initially, although the trooper had his lights on and siren blaring. He was charged with reckless driving, no proof of insurance and having an open container.

He will probably wiggle his way out. Some of these players always seem to do it. Alfonso Dennard, the Pats 7th round draft pick, has a date in court for assaulting a police officer. The Pats were able to draft him because they knew other teams would not touch him. His arrest made him the bargain of the draft.
