Victory Formation Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I was 23 once too. I get it. I’m not ready to crucify the guy but somebody should aware him on what drugs and alcohol can do to your life. I have 3 years sober on the 19th, wish I never touched the stuff at all. Can be the difference between him getting the veteran minimum with his next contract or him making $20 million a year, choice is his to make. 24 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the he’ll is that an issue? Did you see him have any issue with coaches or teammates last year? Dude “ possibly”’made a mistake. It sucks if he did, it is not a testament to his character. Sure glad you have never made a mistake. Surprised they took blood, not surprised if he refused a breathalyzer . I was stopped about 6 years ago for speeding , had a roadie open , did all my tests perfectly . They said let’s do a breathalyzer just to be sure. Told em go take a flying leap. They had no basis to believe I was impaired. I would never take a breathalyzer , especially if I was a young black man. 32 minutes ago, Warcodered said: "He determined that the driver was impaired but by possibly something besides alcohol." So with the blood draw and the gun that they found I don't know it's registered if it's fine or not but I guess we'll see how this all turns out. Doesn't look great. I did not see that quote. Is there another article , I only saw the PFT blog. Thx ! Edited May 17, 2020 by plenzmd1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilmann Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Houston isn’t in Montgomery county that’s Harris county it’s close to Houston.

I appreciate that. He’s still a kid in many ways to me, 23 is still quite young, he’s still a baby mentally. Once again, somebody should tap him on the shoulder and let him know, hey, do you want to make veteran minimum or maybe get a $100 million dollar contract?

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Dumb doesn't even begin to describe this behavior. This will probably get him at least four games.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Well this is not something I wanted to wake up to on a Sunday morning. Hopefully this is a turning point and a good life lesson for Ed. Also if there is one position on the entire team the Bills are extremely deep at it is D tackle. This will be helpful if the Commish gives him a couple games off. If it was just a DWI maybe not much time off, but the gun is an entire other story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't, but know plenty who do. I got stopped in my 40's after a work "event." I'd had a couple pops. I blew right at the limit, but there was a discrepancy with the print out. Something very inconsequential like 0.080 to 0.08. Spent a few hours in the pen waiting after I called my wife. Long story short, because of the very minor discrepancy the charge was changed to reckless driving (I didn't signal a lane change on the freeway). That was enough of a wake up call for me. No roadies here and if I drink more than two I don't drive. Maybe this is Oliver's wake up.

If you can't not drink while driving, you may have a problem. People who act like drinking alcohol while driving is ok or normal need help. I'm not saying 1 or 2 gets would impair most people, but if it's against the law, and could impair you and you still feel like you need to, it's a problem. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, o have had my license since 78, never been cited for an open container. now I gots big problem with driving while drunk , that rightly is and should be strictly enforced. I just don’t understand why if I have 3 beers in a bar, get in a car and drive home that is somehow okay, but if I have a beer as I am driving to the Home Depot and back it is somehow illegal, and worse to some people immoral. It’s a dumb law. What matters is how much I drink, not where I drink it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say I have a beer every time I get in a car? Good to know that we have banned all people driving from a restaurant and bar if they have had a drink. I think that law where they take your keys when you have had a beer was the right choice. Good to know they do the same thing at the Bills game.
