Found April 16, 2007 on WBRS Sports Blog:
New owner, new philosophy, new rules, not so new behavior. And now for some not so shocking news...an NFL player was arrested, but it wasn't Pacman Jones or a member of the Cincinnati Bengals. "Minnesota Vikings cornerback Cedric Griffin was freed on $50 bail after being arrested early Sunday in downtown Minneapolis and charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct, authorities said." Misdemeanor disorderly conduct. What a vague term. Now to what Griffin really did... Two witnesses told KSTP-TV that the Vikings cornerback was thrown out of the Spin nightclub for not pulling up his pants. The club has a dress code requiring that pants not sag below the waist. A class act indeed. Griffin should just be thankful that football, not basketball, is his sport...I have a feeling he would have a problem with Commish Stern and his NBA dress-code he enforces all season long.
