Not excusing him for drinking and driving but I believe that did factor into the sentencing. Again, going from memory. Stallworth committed a crime and it cost someone their life. The legal system rendered its verdict. We may not like it but that is the way it is. If my memory is fuzzy/wrong on this issue, I apologize. This is the issue that comes up time and again. If this was any other industry and Stallworth was getting his old job back, would it matter? However, the NFL is high profile and its players/owners should be held to high standards. Brian makes a good point about playing somewhere else is probably best for Stallworth. We are not so desparate for a WR. We can pass.

I think the reason was, and I can not be 100 percent accurate, was that his blood alcohol content wasn't over the legal limit. Either way, 30 days was a joke. yep, and then settled a civil suit out of court with the family so he wouldn’t be sued.
