OT: Shawne Williams arrested for Codeine

[waya]

So many of these players take for granted the opportunity they've been given smh...

[Fat Kat]

Words of a famous guy, you either sling crack or you got a wicked jump shot.. most those in the nba/nfl would be slinging crack if it werent for the nba, nfl, etc.

Or he just getting high on his own supply..lol

Please tell me you're joking.

[jelly-man]

They said he was trying to sell? Didn't he get MLE money after he left the Knicks. Maybe it was half the MLE, but even then, that is still big money. Answering my own question, a lot of times, it's not about the money with these things.

[GONYK]

This just goes to show: Friends don't let friends sign with the Nets

[Shemy]

so if I ever get the urge to buy weed and coke

I just need to hit Shawne up down the street

[SweatbandP]

Getting busted with syrup in a **** Porsche is one of the most smh things of all time. OF ALL TIME!

[hatnlvr]

It's an absolute shame. He should have been concentrating and busting his butt to try to get back into the league, yet this is where his attention was SMH...

[E86]

lol @ you guys acting like he was caught giving blow jobs for crack or something.

[fdr2012]

He was caught with a little bit of weed and some cough syrup. Intent to sell? LOL.
The guy made $7M over the past 3 seasons. I don't think he's broke yet.

Wow. I like it when I've taken things as normal/innocent for so long then come to find out it's actually something dark/sick. Example: I used to love the Animaniacs as a kid. Then I saw this about a year ago...

[Ron Mexico]

sad. Also I wish these athletes would be forced to have half their salary put into an annuity that gets paid over their lifetime.

That's too perfect of a solution for it to ever happen. Fans and players alike start yelling "slavery" anytime raising the age limit is brought up, they'd never support a regulation that benefits players.

it shouldn't be forced... but players should do it.
