    DUI week?
    Lions CB Aaron Berry got one Saturday.
    Former RB Jamal Anderson got one Sunday.

    Someone famous probably got one yesterday and it hasn't been announced yet.

    DUI's = chump change to an athlete, but still sucks...

    I don't even know if it "sucks" for an athelete.

    Never really hear of any athletes being on probation or having to go to counseling or shit like that, which most normal folk do.

    DUI to an athlete is probably just a minor slap on the wrist, no worse than a not wearing a seatbelt ticket for us...We just throw money at it and it's gone...just like an athlete with a DUI

      There was a story in the local paper the other day, and some woman had 15 DUI convictions on her record. Not sure how she kept avoiding prison time after the 3rd, 4th, etc.

        Gates, you're right from the monetary figure. Just sucks if they lose their license and can't drive. It's more frustrating and damaging to your ego than it is anything.

        Kyle Busch lost his license a while back for going like 100 in a 35, something ridiculous like that.

        I know first hand that getting a DUI and not being able to drive yourself around SUCKS. Yeah, I blew a .08.

                  DUIs suck if you work for a big company.. Most jobs do hardcore background checks.. the company I work for has nothing to do with driving, and if you have a DUI they won't hire you.

                    I dont know how people get multiple DUI's and not go to prison. My buddy is facing 7 years 4 months for a felony DUI. His first DUI and has clean record. He hit another car and that person was injured but the injury wasnt seriously. Lowest DA would allow in plea bargain was 6 years.

                      Good luck to him. He'll probably be out in 3. I know a few dudes that killed a passenger/other driver and they got out in 5-6 years.
