Jolly gets busted again

Defensive lineman Johnny Jolly of the Green Bay Packers was arrested on another drug charge. He was pulled over and cops found 600 grams of codeine and a bottle of an unidentified substance with intent to sell them. He was also driving the car under a suspended license. Jolly was arrested in 2008 for having 200 grams of codeine and he got off very easy. He was given another chance and he messes it up by doing the same mistake. There is no way he needs the money that bad. I feel like the courts are not going to take it easy on him this time and he could be facing a good amount of jail time.

VCU

VCU is definitely the Cinderella team in this tournament and no one has expected them to go this. I surely didn't and I know a lot people are upset because this team messed up a lot of peoples brackets. Anyways, VCU is playing very good basketball and they are now in the Final Four. I always root for the underdog and VCU is by far the underdog in this situation. VCU was on the bubble on getting in the tournament and they did not expect to be in it but now they are stunning the sports nation. All we can do now is wait and see if they can keep going and possibly win the tournament.

Jim Tressel

Ohio State Coach Jim Tressel is getting in trouble for knowing that his players were taking improper benefits. Tressel was aware of these actions for at least 9 months and he is now being suspended due to these actions. The players who took improper benefits were given a 5 game suspension and Tressel told the NCAA that he wants the same punishment as his players. That shows me that Tressel is taking responsibility for his own actions and is showing good leadership by requesting the same punishment. Tressel broke the rules and he was getting a lot of controvery over it but I think that by him taking responsibility and taking the same punishment, he will finally earn respect back from the public and the fans.

Resigning Aj Hawk

The Green Bay Packers recently Aj Hawk becused the did not want to pay him what he wanted. So when they released him Hawk was free to talk to any team and choose to focus on the Packers and they ended up resiging Hawk and came up with a contract that would make both parties happy. I think that the Packers made a great choice. If players want more money and you do not want to pay them that, then release them. Plain and simple. Does Hawk deserve more money? I would say yes because he is a big part of their defense since they lost Barnett and Chillar to season ending injuries. But I think that the players should get what the organization says they do and this is a perfect example of the Green Bay Packers stepping up and telling an athlete NO.

Bibby to the Heat

Mike Bibby recently agreed to forfeit the 6.2 million dollars he was owed by the Washington Wizards in order to be a free agent and play for the Miami Heat for the league minimum. The 32 year old point guard is happy with his decision and can't wait for the season with the Heat. The question is, will he contribute to the team? I would say no. Bibby was a great player when he was on the Kings but I think that he is out of his prime and his best days are behind him. He is not going to be a big factor on the team and I would keep Mario Chalmers as the starter over Bibby. They both have around the same stats but Chalmers is 24 years old. I would keep in to learn as much as he can and grow more as a player. As for Bibby, I think his career is coming to a slow and close halt.
