Seriously you tried to go after the Riverdance guy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the time of Tyna Robertson’s arrest, two children, a girl and Urlacher’s son Kennedy were present. The girl was being taken care of by a family member while Urlacher picked up his son on Monday morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is just one blip in a long line of bad press for Ms. Robertson, mostly created by her. Earlier this year, she felt it point to alert the media that &lt;a href="http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/1300330,CST-NWS-bear26.article"&gt;Urlacher allowed their son to wear pink diapers &lt;/a&gt;and paint his nails like his sisters. Because we all care that big bad Brian Urlacher has a soft side. And two years ago, &lt;a href="http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/19732922/wid/1191577s/"&gt;the pair was ordered by a judge to go to parenting classes&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn’t it funny that people that should never procreate have tons of children and people that should procreate can’t even get pregnant?

The victim reportedly incurred a swollen left face during the one sided affair. What did this kid do? Take you the long way to the hotel so he could charge you more money on something you would just expense later?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Along with Coach Kennedy, William Armstrong, Mississippi’s coordinator of basketball operations, was also arrested although his direct connection to the assault is not known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kennedy was scheduled to sit down with athletic director Pete Boone in a downtown Cincinnati hotel to discuss his future on Thursday, the same day the Rebels will take on Louisville. If it is decided that Kennedy should not coach, assistant Michael White will take over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I guess Kennedy is coaching the right team if he is spending his down time beating up cab drivers and such.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Andy, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Photo: Getty Images; &lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3777703"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPDATE&lt;/strong&gt;: This story is getting saucy.  Coach Kennedy has filed a law suit against his alleged victim for more that $25,000.  In the suit he claims the statements made by the cab driver Mohamed Moctar Ould Jiddou defame his character and may make it difficult for him to get another head coaching job.

Of course I would run through the red light and then the popo would appear from the bushes and give me a ticket, which is the main reason why I’ve never done it, but I always ponder. And sometimes when I am running late and I see the light turning from green to yellow, I slam on the gas to beat the red light. I admit I’ve done that once or twice. But never have I driven through a gas station driveway to avoid a red light. But then again, I’ve also never driven home drunk. I know, such a square.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something I learned from health class in 10th grade was that when you’re drunk, your thinking is sometimes impaired. Take for example Giants offensive lineman Kareem McKenzie. The big guy was pulled over in Little Falls, NJ on November 13th and charged with driving under the influence, reckless driving, driving with an expired registration and driving on private property to avoid a traffic signal. The popo said the dead giveaway was when they spotted McKenzie cutting through the Coastal Gas Station to continue on Main street. If it’s not driving too slow or weaving erratically it’s driving through private property to avoid the red light that will get you everytime.

I always figured it would hinder your athletic ability, but there I go again being all naïve about drugs and stuff. Turns out, it can help you win things, like the giant slalom during the Italian junior championships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Skier Mirko Deflorian was banned 18 months by the Italian Olympic Committee following a positive test for cocaine. The test was administered just a day after he had won the event. I guess maybe it was used during his post race celebration instead of before his big win. In any event, the 28 year old with have a year and half to get back on the straight and narrow if he wants to beat up on the kids at the junior meets. Anyone else find if funny that the Italians allow people over the age of 21 to compete in junior meets?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Mirko, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;(&lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/skiing/news/story?id=3772962"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-9013114249202550860?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

Karalahti was caught when a photo on a friend’s laptop revealed a white powdery substance in his nose.  He must have had a terrible lawyer, if he was getting pinned off of a photo.  It could have been any number of things, a smashed up Tylenol, powdered sugar, cocaine.  But unfortunately Jere was just too darn drunk to remember the night, or so his statement said and therefore was unable to properly defend himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But alas, this is just a small blip on his criminal filled radar screen, which includes a drug trafficking charge (which he’s awaiting an appeal on his sentencing).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, you may remember Jere from his stint in the NHL, which came to a close in 2002 after his third violation of the league’s substance abuse policy.  Gee, never would have guessed a guy that got caught so often in the NHL would ever get arrested and thrown in jail on drug charges.  Oh, wait, I totally saw that one coming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Jere, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;a href="http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=492385"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-924636456392608022?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

Especially since they continue to win without you on the field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But for whatever reason, they’ll continue to pay you for the remainder of the season, even though you’ll be physically unable to play for a bit, but come February, after the Super Bowl has been played, don’t be surprised if the team decides to ship you out like they did with Jeremy Shockey, who only complained about his time with the Giants, he never allegedly did something illegal. Or maybe they’ll just cut you outright, if you’re odd behavior continues, because frankly if the Giants continue to roll past their opponents like they have these past 11 out of 12 weeks, I don’t see a reason for them to keep you around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the next time you feel the need to pack heat because the amount of bling you’re wearing seems like an open target to the patrons at the Latin Quarter, step back from the situation and think to yourself, is it worth it? Because I’m sure Michael Vick will tell you, nothing this petty is worth losing your football career and your freedom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Plaxico, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Photo: Jeff Zelevanksy/Getty Images)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-3044738770100852056?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

The incident cost D’Arcy a spot in the Beijing Olympics and maybe some of his free time depending on his sentencing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to D’Arcy’s lawyer the story went a little something like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;"It is true that there was a physical altercation between Simon Cowley and my client whereupon, without any warning, Simon Cowley slapped my client to the face. Cowley then, intending to introduce himself, approached my client, shortly thereafter, and my client, fearing another strike, responded by punching Cowley to the face."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a horrible way to introduce yourself. "Slap you're it. By the way, I'm Simon." The only way that works on TV is if you’re Linda Evans on &lt;em&gt;Dynasty&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cowley received five titanium plates fitted for facial fractures to his jaw, eye socket, hard palate, cheek bone and nose as a result of D’Arcy’s handy work. Honey, I think you’re in the wrong sport. If your hands are basically lethal weapons, you may want to give boxing a try for the London games in 2012. Maybe you’ll have better luck making the team. Call it practice or something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;D’Arcy has maintained his innocence, claiming self-defense, all-be-it using excessive force, but honestly he didn’t mean to kick this kid’s ass. He is currently awaiting his sentencing trial in February and faces a maximum of 10 years in prison.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Nicky, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Photo: Herald Sun; &lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/swimming/news/story?id=3724417"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-7403064275305583219?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

Mikey was visiting Charleston Southern University earlier in the month when he was robbed at gun point TWICE in three days. The second incident involved four CSU football players who have since been charged in connection with the armed robbery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buster was seated in the car with Riana Bishop, waiting for Andrew Hall, the owner of the car, to finish class. All of sudden, two men got into the back seat of the car. One of them, Ronald Blander, who was wearing a ski mask, allegedly demanded cash, while the other Samuel Baptiste held a gun to Buster’s head. The pair then forced Buster to drive to the nearby Atlantic Palms apartments where they made off with about $30. Seriously, you’re going to get your ass thrown in prison for 10-15 over $30 in cash. Dude, you could have robbed some kid at the ATM with a Butterfinger and gotten more than $30!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh wait, maybe you already robbed some kids at the ATM two days before. You see the first incident for Buster happened when he was sitting in the exact same car with Andrew Hall. (You know the guy he was waiting for during the second attack.) Seems two men knocked on their window and demanded the pair drive them to an ATM. When they got there, the two soon to be convicts robbed Buster and Hall and took off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Students at the Christian school aren’t particularly shocked by the news, especially since this isn’t the first armed robbery on campus this semester.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;"It's not really surprising, a lot of people might think it's surprising because it's a Christian school, oh, they're protected from all that stuff, but I mean, we're still in the world like everybody else," Bentley Christmas, a CSU student athlete said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Earlier in the year, a student was robbed at gunpoint in his Russell Mills dormitory. The alleged perpetrator was a former student.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CSU’s football coach Jay Mills said he was very disappointed in his players, who have since been suspended by the school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two other football players, Zachery Hillery and Tyrone Lattimore are said to have been involved with the on campus robbery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remind me to avoid North Charleston.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Sammy, Ronnie, Zach and Ty, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;(Photos: &lt;em&gt;Post and Courier&lt;/em&gt;;&lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.charleston.net/news/2008/nov/19/charged_csu_abduction_case62139/"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-4917698870633874650?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

And do you know why? Because he doesn’t smoke on the course. Because he's more likely to end up &lt;em&gt;Oprah&lt;/em&gt; than on say &lt;em&gt;Country Fried Home Videos&lt;/em&gt;. Because he's probably hanging out with Justin Timberlake right now and not Kid Rock. And he damn sure will probably not get thrown in the drunk tank after having too much fun at Hooters. No Tiger Woods is too busy going to corporate affairs, baseball games and charity events to go down to the local Hooters and enjoy the hot wings or whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, but not John Daly. He apparently had all the time in the world to go over Winston-Salem’s finest eatery, get so drunk that he passed out, scaring the scantily clad help who called for medical help, which he refused before being taken to the Forsyth County Law Enforcement Detention Center for a 24 hour stay to sober up.

One thing New Jersey does well, besides gravity defying spiky hair, unnatural orange glow and taylor ham is corruption.  Even the Garden State doesn’t deal with public officials like China.  No instead of throwing them into ladies prisons (minimum security country club jails not actual ladies prisons) like we do in New Jersey or you know re-elect said official (because this isn’t Washington DC) China assigns the death penalty.  Yeah that’s right, you do one small tiny little thing like take $1 million in bribes for favorable contract awards related to development of Beijing for the Olympics and you get sentenced to death….well a suspended death sentence, if that makes it any better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;A former Beijing vice mayor in charge of overseeing Olympic construction projects has been given a suspended death sentence for corruption.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Intermediate People's Court in Hengshui, a city outside Beijing, delivered the sentence Saturday after finding Liu Zhihua guilty of taking bribes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the time of Liu’s bribe taking, he was in charge of urban development in Beijing overseeing the $40 billion the city spent on Olympics-related infrastructure.  But then things got a little hairy.  He apparently was pocketing $1 million for himself and then was setting up his mistress for life as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Liu faced 10 charges for allegedly accepting bribes totaling about $1 million and gifts in return for favors to property development companies while he was vice mayor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Liu was also convicted of helping his mistress, Wang Jianrui, profit from construction projects.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Liu of course is claiming this is some sort of set up.  That a company that did not receive a contract from his office is upset and trying to bring him down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Liu claimed in court that the case was an act of retaliation by a property developer who wanted to have Liu removed because of a dispute over a commercial and residential development across the street from several Olympic venues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unhappy over the outcome, the building's developer sought to punish Liu by reporting his extramarital affair and other alleged improper dealings to authorities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is so the plot of movie.  Kind of like &lt;em&gt;Broke Down Palace&lt;/em&gt; but hopefully not as frustrating.  I mean who signs something like a confession written in a language you don’t understand, Kate Beckinsale?  And then who decides that they’d rather rot in a third world country’s jail and let their moronic friend who signed said confession go free, Claire Danes? And if I’m giving away the ending, well consider yourself lucky that you didn’t sit through 2 hours of that crap! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Liu, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/news/story?id=3653467"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-2386285413843192171?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

Adam allegedly got into a little tussle with his bodyguard Tommy Jones at a Dallas Hotel early Wednesday morning. Some bodyguard, dude, you’re supposed to protect Jones, not get beat up by him. The pair reportedly did some damage to the bathroom, like breaking some mirrors, which is seven years bad luck and they also skipped out on the bill. (Once again wealthy people, you do actually have to pay for things!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A source refutes this claim saying that Jones was indeed at the Joule Hotel, kicking back with a lady friend and two body guards. One of the bodyguards left and was replaced by a couple of friends and the rapper Ludacris. The group was apparently drinking at the time, but since he’s of age, that’s not really a crime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jones’ bodyguard has failed to file charges and there have been no arrests but this latest event could get Jones kicked out of the League for good. You see, Roger Goodell has a five and done policy and this has got to be incident number seven or eight! The only positive in this case is that it happed at a hotel and not a strip club &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; there were no guns involved. See Mr. Commissioner, he’s trying to change his ways, he’s hoping to become a better person, if has to literally beat that point into you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Adam, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Photo: AP; &lt;a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/football/cowboys/stories/100908dnspocowpacman.f39b836d.html"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-2494339393428829266?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

Under this alleged plot to avoid paying the government, a "deferred royalty plan" was set up which "required Penske to send the payment to a company in the Netherlands.” Because that’s not shady at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Castoneves, along with his sister Katiucia and business manager Andy Miller are looking at charges ranging from conspiracy to tax evasion, which carry up to a 35 year prison sentence for the Castoneves siblings and 20 years for Miller.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A lesson to be learned from all of this was eloquently stated by U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;"Whether you make a living parking cars or racing them, paying taxes is a responsibility that everyone shares."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently, this was not a view shared by the “Dancing with the Stars” champion and his crew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Helio, Katiucia and Andy, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Photo: The Hollywood Gossip; &lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/rpm/racing/indycar/news/story?id=3622661"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPDATE:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.tmz.com/2008/10/03/helio-pleads-not-guilty"&gt;TMZ.com&lt;/a&gt; is reporting that Castroneves pleaded not guilty to tax evasion charges.

Henry has been on an extended vacation since being cut by the Broncos on June 7th, when Coach Mike Shanahan questioned Henry’s commitment to the team. Well running a drug cartel can be time consuming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Henry and his friend James Mack had actually been set up by the popo. Seems the pair had been involved in an elaborate drug dealing business that spread to Montana, where a car was pulled over by the popo in September. The car was carrying six pounds of marijuana and three kilograms of cocaine, when a passenger in the car told the authorities he was being paid $5,000 by Henry to transport the $63,600 worth of goods. That same unnamed passenger worked with authorities on the October setup of the former NFL star and his business partner in the Denver suburb of Centennial, CO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If convicted Henry and Mack could spend life in prison and face a $4 million fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Henry had signed a five year, $22.5 million contract in 2007, but lost a chunk of the funds after being cut. With his nine kids to support, a man’s got to do something to pay those child support bills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out Travis and James, &lt;em&gt;because the popo are on your tail!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Photo: CBS4 Denver; &lt;a href="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/10/01/henry.ap/index.html"&gt;source&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4984778906905849145-3208344453814024253?l=pimcblotter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;
