Kevin Alexander

His girlfriend confronted him about cheating on her with her friend, so he threw her down, grabbed her throat, shoved her against a wall and punched her in the face

He was cut from the team hours later and DenverBroncos.com doesn't even acknowledge he ever existed

Sergio Kindle, DUI.

The arrest is not Kindle's first. Kindle was arrested in connection with driving-while-intoxicated in college and suspended for three games in 2007. In 2009, he crashed his car into an apartment building and left the scene, an accident his attorney at the time said was a result of text messaging while driving.

Plus, there's his alleged narcolepsy, which was supposedly to blame for the skull breaking fall down a flight of stairs he suffered just before training camp.  That injury not only kept him out this year, but threatens to end his football career entirely (if his alcoholism doesn't do the favor for him first).

Ozzie doesn't hit them all out of the park.

I think the Around The NFL thread would do just fine.  Do the criminals really need their very own thread? 

[ice grillin you]

still want?

taterskins defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth has been charged with simple assault for an alleged road rage incident with another motorist on the Fairfax County Parkway in Reston, Fairfax police said.

Haynesworth, 29, has not been arrested but is planning to turn himself in next week, Officer Shelley Broderick said.

Haynesworth did not return text and phone messages left by taterskins beat reporter Jason Reid. But Haynesworth's agent told Reid there was no assault and the allegations were "ridiculous."

A taterskins executive said the team was unaware of the incident or the charge. "This is the first I'm hearing about this," Tony Wyllie, taterskins senior vice president, told Reid. "At this time, we need to gather information."

Wyllie and team owner Daniel M. Snyder are at the Super Bowl in Dallas.

The episode occurred Wednesday morning, and involved a 38-year-old man driving a 1994 Honda Civic and another driver, allegedly Haynesworth, both driving south on the Fairfax County Parkway, Broderick said. The driver of the Civic reportedly felt that a pickup truck following behind him was tailgating, and issued a "non-verbal hand gesture" to the pickup driver, Broderick said.


About 9:16 a.m., at the intersection with New Dominion Parkway, near the entrance to Reston Hospital Center, the two vehicles came to a stoplight. Broderick said the driver of the pickup truck emerged from his vehicle, had a brief exchange of words, and then struck the Civic driver.

She declined to be more specific about the circumstances of the assault.

The pickup driver then returned to his truck and drove away. Broderick said the Civic driver told police he thought his assailant might be the troubled taterskins player, who was suspended by the team for the final four games of the season for insubordination. Police investigated.

Broderick said she could not reveal what information the Civic driver provided about the assailant or his vehicle. Fairfax Chief Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Ian M. Rodway said an officer assigned to the incident compiled a photo lineup and showed it to the man, who identified Haynesworth as his assailant.

Police could not obtain a misdemeanor warrant because an officer did not witness the incident. So on Thursday night, the Civic driver and the Fairfax officer went to a magistrate and obtained a warrant for simple assault, with the driver as the complainant. The warrant was not immediately available, and typically is not made public until the warrant is served, so the driver's name was not public record.

Broderick said police had been in contact with Haynesworth's lawyer, that Haynesworth was out of town and was making arrangements to surrender next week. Rodway said the charge was the equivalent of a traffic ticket, and that Haynesworth must merely sign a summons acknowledging he has received the charge, a court date will be set and he will not be booked into the county jail.

Simple assault in Virginia is a Class 1 misdemeanor, punishable by up to 12 months in a county jail and a $2,500 fine, though a maximum sentence is rarely imposed for altercations such as this unless the defendant has a lengthy prior record.
