Still not a conviction by any means. I don't agree with unsportsman like conduct on the field like the stomping incident and I believe that if any reason was used to justify his dimissal from the team, it should have been that one.
Getting a speeding ticket should not be used as a justfication for an action like that.
No, you're not. My point was rather than using a legitimate reason such as hurting another player, they use a bullpoo reason of not revealing the fact that he received a speeding ticket.
I don't know about you, but I don't see any reason why I should be obligated to reveal that I was cited for a traffic infraction to anyone like my employer or anyone else. They're free to search public records to find a conviction however.
I believe the insurance coverage lapsed when he failed to pay the premium on time. The fact was that his friend's driving was what got the officer's attention. Besides, he did pay all the buttociated fines and got his license reinstated, making the point moot.
Which also brings me to my other point of statutory reckless driving. Driving above 80 mph on a rural interstate is by no means reckless by any stretch of the definition. As for sugar possession, such a drug shouldn't be illegal in the first place, IMO.
