Santonio Eludes DBs, but Cops Smelled Him Coming
October 24th, 2008 by Alex
Oh man, this is good news for me. Considering I’m a diehard NY Giants fan, and my team is playing the Steelers on Sunday, Santonio Holmes couldn’t have had better timing to get pulled over with marijuana.
Coach Mike Tomlin has already placed the 3rd year wide receiver on the ‘inactive list,’ which means no fade routes or slot duty for the 2nd leading receiver in Pittsburgh.
With that said, he handled the stop really well. Santonio admitted to police that he had smoked in his SUV that day before, but was not impaired when he got pulled over. He handed the pot to the officers, and was released with a summons and a court date.
Unfortunately, Holmes has had some prior legal issues, so let’s hope this minor infraction can get swept under the rug quickly … right after they lose to the Giants.
