Imma need Bruce Smith to gosithisazzdown somewhere….seriously. The all time sack leader has been arrested 3x for driving while intoxicated, but this is the first conviction.
Virginia Beach General District Court Judge Teresa McCrimmon gave Smith a 90-day suspended jail term at a hearing Thursday and fined him $350. Smith’s license was suspended for one year for refusing to take an alcohol breath test.
McCrimmon pointed to evidence that Smith had trouble completing field sobriety tests after he was stopped for speeding last month.
Smith’s lawyer said he had trouble with a heel-to-toe walk and standing on one leg because he’s had multiple knee surgeries. Smith says he’ll appeal.
The NFL sacks leader was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year after a career with the Buffalo Bills and Washington Redskins.

MIAMI (AP)—Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte’ Stallworth (notes) is pleading not guilty to DUI manslaughter charges from a fatal Miami car crash in which a pedestrian died.
The plea was entered at a brief court hearing Thursday by defense attorney Christopher Lyons. The 28-year-old Stallworth did not appear in court. A trial date has not been set.
Stallworth faces up to 15 years if convicted. Police say Stallworth was driving drunk after a night on the town when he struck and killed 59-year-old Mario Reyes on a Miami Beach causeway.
Stallworth is free on $200,000 bail and is required to abstain from alcohol, not drive and observe a curfew.
Question - With Stallworth facing possible jail time/suspension, will the Browns take a chance on Plaxico? Braylon and Burress, MICH…ur thoughts?

I know for a fact Bruce Smith and Cory McIntrye do.
Hall of Fame defensive lineman Bruce Smith was reportedly arrested and charged with driving under the influence Friday morning. According to WKBW in Buffalo, Smith was released on bail.This marks the third time the 11-time Pro Bowl selection has been arrested on suspicion of DUI, having avoided charges in both 1997 and 2003.
Smith was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2009 after recording an NFL-record 200 sacks in 19 pro seasons with the Bills and Redskins. In the words of Florida Evans…”DAMN, DAMN, DAMN”

In other Bills legal troubles, fullback Corey McIntyre is reportedly facing allegations that he exposed himself to a woman. The incident allegedly happened about two months ago, but the 29-year-old McIntyre was arrested Thursday and charged with exposing sexual organs. A spokesman for the Port St. Lucie Police says a woman claimed the player knocked on her window during the act, then fled. Police later spotted him on a bicycle.
The charge is a misdemeanor and required a warrant for his arrest, which led to the lag time until McIntyre was jailed.According to the report, he denies the charges and was released on $10,000 bail. In my own words, NASTY AZZ BUGGER!!
Thanks to The NFL Chick for the title, lol
