Suspend Briggs, Knock Some Sense Into the Lovetron

If you haven’t heard the news, Lance Briggs crashed his Lamborghini and then left the scene of the accident. Furthermore, he lied and then reported the car was stolen. And why was he out at 3 in the morning? The only solution I can think of is he was drunk. Why else would he be out at 3AM and flee the scene? I never knew the Lovetron’s idiocy extended beyond the man-love for WRECKS the Wonder Bear: “We have a one-car accident and now alcohol is involved? I think that’s stretching it a little bit to go that far.”

No, Lovie it isn’t. It’s valid. I remember some fellow named Tank Johnson was pulled over and found to have been barely under the legally drunk limit. Josh Hancock slammed his car into a tow truck and died. The culprit was booze. It’s valid to ask if Briggs was drinking.

What Briggs did won’t sit well with the new get-tough commish Roger Goodell. You behave like a thug off the field, you should be suspended. Thank you Mr. Goodell for not dismissing incidents like this. Right now Briggs should get two games. One for leaving the scene of the accident, and another for lying. As more details unfold, we’ll see if Briggs should get additional suspension.
