Warfield's coming suspension vs. J Lewis' suspension
 
I had read where Warfield might be suspended next year for his DUI. If J Lewis only gets a 2 game suspension for his activities, what are they going to suspend Warfield?

Is Warfield going to do jail time?

I'd say Warfields crime was worse, so he deserves a bigger suspension.

That sounds odd at first, but I'd have to agree.

Yeah. Its a kneejerk reaction. You think "intent to sell cocaine" vs DUI, but then you actually sit there and think about it.

WTF? Drugs vs alcohol....I think it's clear Jamal's crime is worse.

Both are felonies, however Lewis was not even in the NFL when he committed his crime. I would not be surprised if Warfield gets a stiffer suspension. You have to be a total reerun to get a DUI, much less 3.

I agree whole heartedly with this post. I think the team ought to hire a personal driver for Warfield and dock his pay accordingly.

I will have to keep an eye out here http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=100837 for any unemployed Planet member.

All the same.. I expect you'll catch some heat for that one.

Yeah, that's why the recent study found that driving while talking on a cell phone is much more dangerous than driving at a .08.

I'm surprised that so many people buy into the jihad against drunk driving.

Hire a personal driver? Screw that. These are grown men. They should know how to behave.

If Warfield gets another DUI he can look for another team to play for.

When drivers were conversing on a cell-phone, they were involved in more rear-end collisions, their initial reaction to vehicles braking in front of them was slowed by 8.8%, and the variability in following distance increased by 24.5%, relative to baseline. In addition, compared to baseline it took participants who were talking on the cell phone 14.8% longer to recover the speed that was lost during braking.

By contrast, when participants were legally intoxicated, neither accident rates, nor reaction time to vehicles braking in front of the particpant, nor recovery of lost speed following braking differed significantly from baseline.

There's a novel idea!!!!
I'll volunteer to drive the "short bus" for Chiefs players, just to safely get the around and all!!!

I'm not -- same as the smoking nazi's.
Don't get me wrong, it is a responsibility thing (DWI etc), but I see a plea bargain to "felony cell phone usage" from intent to distribute cocaine as a lot worse than DWI/DUI/possession.

At any rate, the NFL's jurisdiction in Warfields and Lewis' case are different, in addition you have Warfield skirting the D/L system by getting a Nebraska license and surrendering his Kansas license (shows fraudulent intent).

About the only thing to happen to Lewis after all this is his endorsement universe will shrink (no childrens toys or books).

This is probably by far the stupidest argument i've heard.
