Fatman Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2490904 COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes was charged with domestic violence early Monday, police said. Holmes was arrested at an apartment just after midnight and taken to Franklin County Jail, Sgt. Loucious Hollis said. He is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday morning. Hollis confirmed the domestic violence charge against Holmes, but declined to say who made the complaint or provide details of the allegation. A message left for the Steelers by The Associated Press was not immediately returned. It was Holmes' second arrest since being selected in the first round of the NFL draft. He was arrested in South Beach, Fla., for disorderly conduct during a Memorial Day weekend crackdown by local authorities. Steelers coach Bill Cowher criticized Holmes the following week, but said he wouldn't hold the incident against the former Ohio State receiver. "Whatever he did wrong, I don't think he handled it properly," Cowher said then. "I think he'll learn from it and understand the scrutiny he's under. We have not talked face to face about it. I don't have any long-term concerns." Guy is starting to smell like a turd...OSU fans, he didn't have any issues while at school, did he?

Skippy Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 This is not at all looking good for this kid. Wrong place at the wrong time works once but now things are not going to roll off his back so smoothly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goopster24 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The guy had no problems at OSU as far as I remember. He was a great guy and this is just unfortunate. He is a rookie; hopefully he can get his head straight pretty soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Irish Doggy Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Typical Steelers. You wouldn't find a Bengal WR in this much trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengal Mania Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 (edited) Maybe he and Chris Henry can go play in Canada w/ Ricky. If they have a work release program (that would be just like the commies up there), that's be a pretty good skill set.... Rae Carruth is a bad ass, but probably past his prime. Lawrence Phillips, ditto. We need a QB....wasn't Warren Moon a wife beater? He's probably only 50 or so, he can still bring it. Mercury Morris can be the team liason w/ pimps and dealers, no wait, it should be Michael Irvin...

thecerwin Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Wow, sounds like a spoiled rookie to me. Someone needs to give him a reality shock. If he doesn't get his act together he could lose his job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donutrun Jellies Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 This guy was reported to be a "high-character" guy. This is NOT GOOD. Trade him to Oakland or Dallas. For a sock with a hole in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I wonder how far he falls in the draft if these events happened earlier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxfactor Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Where is Joey Porter to light a fire underneathe him when needed? No, Porter needs to kick his arss plain and simple. It never ceases to amaze me how stupid some of these kids get when they come into the money. I hope he doesn't turn out like Chris Henry.
