Many sports teams have offered special perks to first responders. A pro athlete telling a cop he is a pro athlete hoping for a one time break is just not the end of the world to me, because cops identify themselves to pro athletes hoping for stuff like autographs too. Everyone tries to get out of traffic tickets. The first amendment lets them state their profession if they wish. Pretty people flirt. People say they worked long shifts. Lawyers probably say they are lawyers. If this cop wants to arrest Olave for a speeding ticket I guess he can, but the next time a cop asks a Saints player for an autograph for their kids and says "but I'm a cop" the Saints player might say "so." I mean sure, give the guy a warning, make sure he's not drunk, let other cops know so if he tries it again he gets a ticket. But arresting him, I guess maybe its hard to be a Falcons fan on the Kenner Police department.

I was raised to be an optimist and you obviously weren't. I've met some negative people in my time but you are the most negative person that I've ever talked to. I'm just curious were you banned from SR?

dude actually told the cop... i play for the Saints... so what

Poor judgement. 70 in a 35 is pretty aggressive. When I was 23 I did worse.

Thankful no one was hurt. Get back to football kid.

Truth...I lived in Kenner for 5 months years ago. The PD doesn't play.

Pretty girls flirt. Athletes don't have that option! Just sayin'.

I was told he forgot his phone at home with his girl. He wasn’t driving fast enough. He should have been going 200 MPH.

This is going to end up being nothing. Just play better, nobody will care!
