As most of the NFL’s analysts are busy prettying up their draft boards and fellating recently-retired quarterbacks, the league’s athletes are working to stay in midseason form. Bills running back Marshawn Lynch and Steelers kicker Jeff Reed had run-ins with law enforcement over the weekend.
“Reed caused damage to a towel dispenser as he was infuriated at the fact that there were no towels in it,” according to a news release by Trooper Shawn Askins, who issued the citations. The incident occurred Saturday about 2:50 a.m.
A message left on an answering machine at Reed’s home was not immediately returned.
Reed was cited for disorderly conduct and criminal mischief and sent on his way. I wonder if Reed got home and beat the hell out of his answering machine when there weren’t any messages on it. As for Lynch:
Police said Lynch was arrested Wednesday night after officers approached him and two other men sitting in a 2006 Mercedes-Benz in this Los Angeles suburb and found a loaded firearm.
Lynch was arrested after officers determined the gun belonged to him. He was released that night on $35,000 bail.
Guns and California go together like peanut butter and giraffes, but how do police just “find” a gun? Police have their own guns, and this persecution of millionaire athletes cannot stand. What am I gonna do about it? I’ll get to that a second. Right now I have to investigate something shiny in the hallway.

so let me get this straight, the black RB with the cornrows gets arrested for having a gun and the white kicker with the spikey hair gets arrested for beating up an inanimate structure.
Some stereotypes are absolutely accurate.
Sitting in a car is against the law for black men in Culver City. The cops were just doing their duty… they are sworn to protect the citizenry against such dangerous activity. Think of the emissions!
Everyone knows that God fearing white or Asian men do not sit idly in cars.
As a gentleman of caramel persuasion, I am supportive of both defendants.
The cops and the kicker that is. The other fella, he’s guilty of SWB.
dragonball z fans everywhere agree that the towel dispenser had it coming.
Jeff Reed doesn’t seem like the guy that would wash his hands. I learned something today.
FUCKING SAMMY HAGAR LOOKS LIKE SHIT!!!
Nice frisbee nips.
“There’s no fucking DEP in THIS machine either!”
He probably just had the gun to see “if it was really like that.”
Marshawn was only holding the gun for Plaxico.
Marshawn should have skipped that 3rd cup of blue Kool-Aid his cousin made.
He is so handsome, just the type I am interested in, I hope I can find such a man on the high quality wealthy romance site “m i l l i o n a i r e l o v e s. c o m”.
it’s the third Miser brother—–douchemiser!
