The thing I find interesting is that Lewis paid settlements to both the Baker and Lollar families. An odd thing to do if he was really a peacemaker during the altercation. Can you say guilt?
J.R. Smith
Another speeding, rich, arrogant idiot. This time, a friend was killed. Yes, his own friend Andre Bell was the victim of his stupidity, driving 67 mph in a 35 mph zone.
The accident occurred June 9, 2007 in New Jersey. After running a stop sign, both Smith and Bell were ejected from the vehicle. Neither was wearing a seat belt. Bell died two days later. As for Smith’s punishment, 30 days in jail and 500 hours community service. You get the picture. A slap on the wrist.
Smith’s license has been suspended eight times, and he has had two tickets and three suspensions since the incident. It seems as if money amends the laws of our nation. It's sad, but true.
Maurice Clarett
After leading the Ohio State Buckeyes to the 2002 National Championship, its been a downward spiral for Clarett. Then a freshman, Clarett challenged the NFL’s rule that a player must have been out of high school for three years before entering the NFL Draft.
Following several failed attempts to make a NFL squad, Clarett has failed to play in one NFL game and is now in jail on charges of robbery, carrying a concealed weapon and resisting arrest. Clarett maintains a blog while in prison called "The Mind of Maurice Clarett." I’m sure the blog is very enlightening.
