Stupid mistake by Morgan, this definitely puts him in the dog house. That said, I think he'll eventually work his way back into the starting line up. I hope this doesn't make us consider bringing back Henderson. The guy brings nothing to this team anymore. Use the extra reps on Toon and Stills. We need to start looking forward at the WR position!

Re: Joe Morgan arrested for DUI

Give the guy a break. I'm sure many on this forum have driven drunk once in their lives. I don't condone it, but it happens. Hell, I got a DUI when I was arround that age and had to learn the hard way. Haven't drove drunk since and won't.

You only harmed yourself Joe. You are blessed. Be a man and never let it happen again.

Re: Joe Morgan arrested for DUI

1) How many members of this forum drink alcohol?
2) By show of hands, how many that drink have never, ever, EVER driven after drinking, if even after a few? (I never got caught is not an acceptable answer).

Wait. Are those crickets I'm hearing?.

The kid made a mistake. None of us here are judge, jury and executioner of his life. Dig around in your own backyard before you dig around in someone else's.

I have never ever and will never ever. The only exception would be if there was an absolute emergency and no othr way to get help, get someone to safety etc. There just are no excuses.

.
Never have and never will, I've always thought that driving is a privilege and it can be taken away very easily

Have you ever noticed how when you dont have your car for a day (service, MOT etc) you all of a sudden have loads of stuff you want to do

Long story short, I wouldnt put myself in that kind of position because i value the freedom of driving too much

Re: Joe Morgan arrested for DUI

I'm sorry. I wasn't aware that I was surrounded by actual saints here and not just fans of the team.

Ahhh sensibility.

When and where I grew up (Abbeville/mid-late 80s) I do not ever remember anyone getting a DWI, there were no seat belt laws, there were no open container laws either either. At 15 I had a drivers license, and poor judgment. On a Saturday night the streets were full of underage kids drinking and driving I suppose poor judgment was something only I suffered.. That is however no excuse.

At the age of 23 I got my first and only DWI, my father had to bail me out and bring me home. If anything I remember about that night it is what he told me in the car ride home. "I am not going to chew your azz, you are an adult and you have not done anything I have not done before, You just got caught. Hopefully we have both learned a lesson from this."

While getting behind the wheel drunk was poor judgment, at some point in the night he had the sensibility to pull over and not continue with poor judgment.

I see some anomalies in here as typically alcohol is not known to support good judgment once it is consumed. Perhaps it is the brand and type of alcohol that supports a sound decision making process. I personally have never come across that brand.

I am making no excuses for Joe, just stating my experiences.
