Da'Rick Rodgers Arrested Last Night, released (merge)

[HOZER]

What a dumb $&@#!!!! Had high hopes for this kid, but stupid is as stupid does....hope this is a lesson for everyone else on the team, you mess up, you're done.

[SubZero]

A worthy replacement, but are we rolling with only 5 WRs?

Yes we are. Landry's suspension cleared another roster spot. Looks like a signing is coming tomorrow.

[Narcosys]

Be my guest. But it seems there are far bigger things to worry about. Things that we can actually control

You know what's funny? You worrying about what I care about, which ironically is something you can't control. Congrats.

I'm not worried at all. I had forgotten all about it until just now

Super disappointed. Guy has oodles of raw talent, but less than half a brain.

If I am a talented player in the NFL earning HUNDREDS of thousands per year, I am NOT driving when going out. I am using one brain cell and calling a cab or some other car service. All the moreso if I am a roster bubble player!

I simply cannot understand the level of i d i o c y at work in that guy's head. Ugh.

[GwinnettColt]

His charges (taken from a public site):

Jesus... What'd he do? -_-

He created everything and then died on a cross and brought Himself back to life for you, so you could enjoy Heaven with Him.

However, this post is actually about DaRick Rodgers getting a DUI, not about the Savior of the world.

This is the sort of thing you look back on with deep regret

Hard to comprehend throwing away this opportunity

[akcolt]

Crossing the yellow line is probable cause enough for an officer to stop you. At that point, if you're intoxicated you're basically busted

If you were laughing at jokes, almost certain they would let you go with a warning to not laugh so hard that you merge into oncoming lanes next time

Being out at 3:30 am is reason enough to get pulled over cop can say anything driving left of center, failure to signal, whatever they want to pull you over. If you are drinking you are done. There aren't a lot of reasons to be out at that time.

 

I never really got the love affair with Rogers anyway was surprised we kept 6WR from the get go.

 

Purifoy on the other hand has shown talent and has the looks of an outside corner. He needs a mentor as of now someone he is handcuffed to. I would say Adams is the only choice. He actually would be peeing talent down the toilet not just alcohol.

Since the staff doesn't seem him as the safety that some of us here do, I'd suggest he get under Vontae or Butler's wing

Would say Toler but the injury bug might rub off on him *slaps knee*

I kid I kid

[akcolt]

I am a little worried about the random UA the NFL is giving Purifoy about right now. No punishment for first failed right? I am not saying he did or didn't I am just saying I am worried.

The more I think of it....this may be a good opportunity for him. Was not looking good for him this season anyway, with Reggie,TY, Moncreif, and Nicks playing well and Griff earning a spot as returner, he may have been stashed anyway and not seen any playing time. Maybe someone will take pick him up and he'll actually get some playing time? More importantly, I hope the young man gets his life together.

And yes there are a lot of better ways to leave the team then by risking others lives by drinking and driving, definitely not a wise decision!!!

[FicmanS]

I would be shocked if Rogers is cut.

 

 

Ding Ding Ding Done in Indy    He's been cut

[oldunclemark]

The real question is, why is a guy with his sketchy background driving around at 3:30 am after having anything to drink? I get that he's young, but when I was his age, the only place I was going at 3:30 in the morning was back from lunch during my 3rd shift grocery night manager job.

That's what Im thinking, ruk,....3:30 a.m.? Really? With booze breath?

...during the season....? You're an NFL Player..

In these times...you just cant be there...

[LordHelpOurColts]

Just cut him already. We are way too lax as a society when it comes to drunken driving. I find it reprehensible.

Keep your religion of our forums, please. Be considerate of others. How would you feel if I went into a speech about Allah?

Is he?

[HOZER]

Yes Sir, cut swiftly after the news broke.

Really guess you have no sense of humor.

What part of that was funny? 

[OldSchoolColt]

I can not believe Irsay did such a stupid thing. Oh, I mean Rogers. My bad. At least Rogers should be understanding. Oh, I mean Irsay.

Strike 2 for this young man. Rogers needs to take some time to get his head right because he has all the skills to make something of himself just can't seem to stop making the same kind of mistakes.

The crazy thing is EVERY team has their own personal service that can come pick up guys, if they have been out, and take them home. It completely baffles me how these guys get DUI's/DWI's when they have this service and for free.

I'm with you there but not only that these guys make enough cash to call yellow cab. 

[BleedBlu8792]

They have no need to, the team's service is on-call for them 24-7.

[Dr. Guildo]

I know but if you are out drinking maybe you dont have or remember the info so call yellow cab. That number should be in every bar.

[BrentMc11]

D'oh, I missed it last week that he got moved to the active roster.

You are starting to lose it Coffee!  Have a cup on me

 

Lunch at Jack Stacks too!

If you're ever in Kansas, we will go to Oklahoma Joe's.  Jack Stack is good but Oklahoma Joe's is better.

[Draztik]

Our PR guy for a split second saw headlines: "Irsay to take troubles WR under his wing and get him the help he needs"

[BrentMc11]

I may not make it back, but we will hook up if I do.  I never went to Oklahoma Joes.  I am game unless it is Carolina BBQ......

[runthepost]

He gone

[Bravo]

Purifoy better straighten his act up quick!!!!

Trouble in college at Florida and now in the car with Rogers. (Not saying he did anything)

I like them both but we NEED Purifoy and his development! I have high hopes for him! I'm sure the Colts are watching him closely! Hopefully this is some kind of wake up call to him.

[PrincetonTiger]

Yes we are. Landry's suspension cleared another roster spot. Looks like a signing is coming tomorrow.

I am wondering if the signing will be a OW or Safety

[Clem-Dog]

Roto is reporting that Jeremy Gallon (Wr) is visiting today.

I know, right?

 

What Rodgers did isn't nearly as bad as what the teams owner did. You'd think they'd give DR a second chance, under the circumstances and all.

If Rodgers didn't have more baggage than the luggage claim at Dulles he would still be on the team. He was on the world's shortest leash to begin with.

True. I would assume this sort of thing would continue. It just seems a bit odd that the teams owner does the same thing (but worse). Smacks of hypocrisy, but that's life in the big city. It's not hard to avoid driving around drunk.
