  • *sigh* these guys need to get back to the field , but hey it's only weed right?

      Looks like it's alcohol this time around. This was PFT's previous story this morning:

      As the "Days without an Arrest" meter creeps back toward double digits, it might once again be pushed back to zero before it can get there.

      We're getting word, from multiple readers, of an arrest of a fairly high-profile player. The arrest occurred in Travis County, Texas. The charges, we're told, relate to boating while intoxicated; the last NFL player to our knowledge who was busted for such an infraction was Browns guard Eric Steinbach. (This time around, it's not him.)

      We've yet to confirm this one, so we're not going to post the name just yet.

        Benson got in trouble in college for busting into someone's apt. with a gun. Amazing how this stuff is exploding all over the league. Ain't just the Cowboys taking the heat anymore.
        • I am from Austin, Texas. Ced did bust into someone Apt. But he did not have a gun. If you are going to tell it. Get your facts together.

          Hmm.......I just read that story again yesterday and let me see if I can find it again. Either way, he's been in trouble before.

    Matt Forte is now the darkhorse to win rookie of the year. Don't be surprised if he is the starting running back in week one. Unfortunely while the NBA is losing it's thug image, the NFL is gaining one.

      "Let's give Benson the utmost punishment as well! He broke the substance policy! And Weed makes you run faster and jump higher!"

    Turns out now he was pepper sprayed during the arrest too. Why do these guys think it's a great idea to resist the cops? What do they expect will happen? Guess "Slow Train" has had a few too many blows to the head on Soldier Field :-)

      Smoked to much ganja with Ricky down there in Austin. Ricky not only showed him the ropes , but taught him how to smoke it, too.

    the bears just keep going down the drain, they lost their receivers, defenders are crying for mo money, now benson, and dont forget that rex grossman is still their quarterback

      As Love Smith keeps saying over and over, "Rex Grossman IS our quarterback".
  • kgoon1590
    Under the Goodell regime, don't expect to see him for another 8 games...

    Although that might be a best-case scenario for the Bears with the way Benson plays...

        Hey what is a BWI???

        Bears' Benson says BWI, resisting arrest charges unfounded

      They always do........LOL.

    Cedric said before the 2005 draft: "I'm not Ricky." True, Ricky had a career and you have had none, and Ricky doesn't have your arrest record.
