DAVID BOSTON GOT A DUI
08.25.07
So, emails have been flooding the With Leather inbox about the arrest of Tampa Bay Buccaneer wide receiver David Boston on suspicion of DUI. I was all like, "Nobody wants to hear about Daryl Boston. He sucked for the White Sox, and then he sucked slightly less for the Mets. Plus he last played like 12 years ago." But then the lovely lady (i.e. 'sporting girl') I entertained (i.e. 'hired') last night said, "That doesn't say Daryl Boston, it says David Boston." Who says women don't know their sports? Anyway, here's some highlights from the police report:
Boston, 29, . . . was found passed out at the wheel of a dark red Range Rover . . . police said. "We're assuming he stopped at the red light and passed out," police Capt. Sanfield Forseth said. "He didn't know where he was." The jail affidavit said that Boston had poor balance. It also said he has a tattoo of "Chucky" on the right side of his chest. "He seemed disoriented and confused," the arresting officer, identified as J. McNeil, said in the arrest affidavit. "He had mood swings and seemed evasive."
Having a tattoo depicting the character most closely associated with your head coach seems a little awkward to me. It's like the time when I was in the Libyan navy, and that guy with the Betty Boop tat insisted that every one of his bunkmates resembled her. I still feel a little bad about giving that weirdo a "fantail liberty". But I don't feel bad about all the American cigarettes he "left" me because I bought my way out of navy with them. -KD

First post up before noon? Nice work.
You must be on the West Coast. It's past two here.
In high school, me and a buddy actually passed out at a red light. I woke up after an undetermined amount of time and we were sitting in the intersection and the light was green. I woke up the driver and we drove away.
How many fantasy points does getting a DUI before 8PM get you?
I know he learned that trick while he was THE Ohio State University. How do I know? Well I think it must be part of the curiculum, because I'd up early Sat mornings for work and see my roommate (Stanley Jackson) and other Buckeyes passed out in my Morrill Tower suite.
Maybe i'm still drunk but i read resembled as reassembled and wondered why you had a dismembered Betty Boop. I'm gonna go find a traffic light and have a nap.
Nice Heisman pose !! You should probably work on your touchdown routines at home.
