Derrick Caracter F Los Angeles Lakers

Derrick Caracter of the currently playoff Los Angeles Lakers was arrested in the early morning of Easter on three charges; Battery, Public Intoxication, and Resisting Arrest.

The incident occurred at a IHOP when a waitress, who was at first reportedly pregnant, refused to serve Caracter due to the fact that he was too intoxicated. The arrest happened at around 1:00 AM when he repeatedly hit the waitress because, well, she wouldn't give the drunk ass his Denver Scramble. A manger ran outside and flagged down a police officer who tried to diffuse the situation, but Caracter wouldn't cooperate.

Later it was corrected that the waitress was, in fact, not pregnant.

The Rookie Caracter has been inactive for the entirety of the playoff series against the New Orleans Hornets thus far, and I wouldn't expect anything else going forward. He was the 58th selection in the NBA Draft.

Jamal Coombs-McDaniel F UCONN

 Jim Anderson/TheDailyCampus

Jamal Coombs-McDaniel, who averaged 5.6 points/game, was arrested along with 5 other people in a college dorm at around 11:30 PM for possession of more than 4 ounces of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. The arrest occurred April 21st.

In a search of the dorm, police found 5.6 grams of marijuana, a marijuana grinder, and a package of cigars usually used to smoke marijuana.

Bail was set at $500, and he is set to go to court again on May 5. He has likely already faced the wrath of Jim Calhoun, which might be worse.

Ryan Braun OF Milwaukee Brewers

Ryan "The Hebrew Hammer" Braun just got locked up by the Milwaukee Brewers until the 2020 season, which will keep him around until he is roughly 37 years old.

The three time All-Star starter and winner of the 2007 NL Rookie of the Year award signed a deal that is reportedly worth $105 million that extends the deal another 5 seasons at roughly $21 million/year. The deal puts him up there near the top of the list for highest paid outfielders.

That's a lot of drinking money.

Jordan Railey C Iowa State

Iowa State Center Jordan Railey has been arrested for the 2nd time in the 2011 year. His first arrest came in January when he was booked for an OWI after a one car accident. He was suspended for 2 games following that arrest.

This time, Railey was seen throwing a punch at a man outside of a bar that is popular for Iowa State students. He was ordered to stop by police but kept on walking, and when police caught up with him he pulled away and was generally uncooperative. He was booking on a charge of disorderly conduct.

He has been suspended indefinitely by the Cyclones, who will surely miss his 2 points/game.

Cameron Dehn, Brock Granger and Nicholas Deleon Louisville

Three University of Louisville athletes have been arrested on marijuana charges. Cameron Dehn who is currently a freshman on the swimming team, as well as Brock Granger and Nicholas Deleon are Sophomores and Juniors respectively on the Soccer team.

Police found a large amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia at Granger and Deleon's house near the U of L campus. All three were arrested and charged with Trafficking in Marijuana, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia All three are on investigative suspension pending.

All three have been released from jail.

4 Penn State Athletes

Two Penn State footballers, and 2 Penn State basketballers were on the receiving ends of charges brought up from a drunk St. Patties Day brawl. The football players, WR Curtis Drake and DB Derrick Thomas, and the basketball players, Tre Bowman and Taran Buie received disorderly conduct charges.

What might catch your eye is that Curtis Drake and Taran Buie were both involved. Back last July there was an altercation outside of a McDonalds where both were charged with Disorderly Conduct after a fight. An online Penn State website stated that it was just a misunderstanding and the two were friends and just horsing around.

So much for that theory.

They weren't found out until still images of the altercation were spread around by the Penn State police department. They ended up being 4 of the 234 arrested for the drunken festivities of St. Patties Day. All four players charged are under 21 years of age, but no tickets for underage drinking have been brought up, because, well the Penn State police were too slow to find them. Police LT Robb has said that Alcohol is thought to be a factor.

Jalen Rose G Ex-Pacers

(photo courtesy TMZ)

As if we didn't hear enough about Jalen Rose right now with his whole 'Fab 5' argument with Coach K, we find out that the ESPN analyst is set to appear in court in April after being cited for suspicion of drunken driving at 2am on March 11 in West Bloomfield Township, MI.

Rose declined to take a Breathalyzer test but submitted to a blood test at the hospital. The roads were icy and the officer believes the icy roads had something to do with Rose's car sliding off the road...oh really? Ya think? Ice may have helped a car SLIDE off the road? That's good, because if your pavement was making cars slide, you might have a problem. Sounds like somebody is trying to help a Michigan favorite evade trouble.

Rose had a solid 13-year career as a shooting specialist and excelled defensively until age started catching up with him and his knees couldn't handle both ends of the floor. He was the first Pacers player to lead the team in scoring in 8 years other than Reggie Miller during the 99-00 season. He led his team to the NBA finals that year but unlike his shorts in Michigan, they landed just a bit short against the Lakers.

Rose's attorney says they look forward to fully working with Michigan authorities in resolving the problem...something tells me they aren't really looking forward to it.

Update: Video and the 911 call from Jalen Rose's arrest have been released HERE.

DeAngelo Casto PF Washington State

DeAngelo Casto follows in the footsteps of Klay Thompson and Reggie Moore to become the third WSU basketball player to be arrested for possession of marijuana in just the first 3 months of 2011.

Police searched his off-campus apartment at around 1:20 AM on Tuesday morning and found the marijuana the led to him being charged with possession of less than 40 grams of marijuana. No other details have been released yet as to why they were searching his apartment in the early morning on Tuesday, but if you ask the Seattle Weekly blog it's race. Yup they just search every black mans apartment, going door to door apologizing to the whites. "Are you Caucasian? Yes? Well I'm sorry to awaken you from your slumber! Do you happen to know where any African-American's are staying? We'd like to search their apartments for drugs" That's probably not how this all happened, because you know, there is laws and rights and shit. But think what you want Keegan Hamilton, you brilliant writer you.

Three WSU football players have been arrested for marijuana possession since October 2010 as well, and GASP, they're African American. Come on Keegan, spark up this race war! Stir up the masses!

Bryan McCann CB Dallas Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys CB Bryan McCann becomes the second player arrested since the decertification of the NFLPA and the subsequent lockout of the NFL players, which means he's the second player to be arrested that won't face any kind of consequence from the league or the team. McCann was arrested at around 3:00 AM for public intoxication, though no details of the arrest have been released yet. McCann said that he is innocent until proven guilty and that he was going to fight this charge because he "wasn't intoxicated". I don't know about the laws in Dallas, Texas but where I'm from they usually don't arrest sober people, take them to detox, and make them sit there for 8 hours.  I'm going to go ahead and assume that McCann wasn't just "intoxicated" he was probably drunk off his fucking ass. Of course, in Texas it's illegal to take more than 3 sips of beer at a time while standing, so maybe that's just the case.

Bruce Pearl HC Tennessee

Tennessee got their asses handed to them by #8 seed Michigan in the first round of the big dance, losing 75-45 and being outscored by 42-16 over the last 20 minutes. Add that to the fact that Bruce Pearl was suspended over the first 8 SEC games this year due to NCAA violations you can pretty much say his future at UT is up in the air. Pearl, the president of the Jewish Coaches Association, has also never been past the Elite 8 in the big dance, and only won the DII championship once at the University of Southern Indiana. Sounds like a winner to me.

Bryson Smith CF Florida

Bryson Smith, who hit the game winning RBI against the University of Miami, was arrested for DUI early Monday morning. Smith, who rotates in and out of CF, was seen making wide turns and drifting into a curb by police and was pulled over at around 1:00 AM. According to the police report, Smith had bloodshot and glassy eyes, swayed while standing,  and performed very poorly on field sobriety tests. The report also stated that Smith admitted to having one drink as he was picking up his friends from a bar. Smith refused to take a breathalyzer, but that's fine since they got all the urine they wanted for a urine test because during the observation period he pissed all over himself. That must have been one extremely large drink.

George Karl Coach Denver Nuggets

It seems as if old Georgy Boy has earned himself a nice 3-year contract extension despite the fact that the Nuggets traded away some big names in Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups to rebuild for the near future. It is long believed that Karl was the reason Anthony indirectly demanded that he be traded away from Denver. C'mon George, what are you thinking asking a professional NBA player to rock a little D from time to time. Not baller. Karl is one of 7 coaches in NBA history to have won over 1,000 games and would like to finish his career in the Mile High City. With Danilo Gallinari, the Birdman, and an endless supply of Silver Bullets, how could he go wrong?

Venoy Overton G Washington

Washington standout Venoy Overton has averaged 6 points/game, along with 3.4 assists/game on 21.3 minutes/game has found him self in some deep trouble. More specifically deep in some 16 year old trouble.

Overton has been charged with furnishing alcohol to minors in an incident that happened back in January. Allegedly he purchased alcohol for two 16 year old girls and brought them to his sisters apartment, where they paid for the alcohol with sex. One of the two girls said that she felt like she had to have sex with him because of who he was, and after seeing the other girl do it. Then it "just happened." He wasn't charged with anything regarding that because of conflicting witness statements. The age of consent in Washington is 16, but prosecutors felt the case was troubling because of "situational pressure."

Don't feel bad for Overton, apparently he has enough money to pay the fine. Just look at the images he put on his Myspace/Photobucket, Overton on the right.

Charles Barkley PF Ex-Philadelphia 76er's

Charles Barkley is a one time NBA MVP who has made the All-Star game 11 times in 11 straight years. His off the field drinking resume is almost just as good. Along with his propensity to Gamble (once admitting to losing $2.5 million in a 6 hour period) his DUI arrest was very impressive.

He was pulled over for running a stop sign, and of course smelled like alcohol and had bloodshot, watery eyes. When asked if he had been drinking he told police, "Yes I have." When asked how much he had drank, he responded, "A couple, I could give you a bullshit answer but I didn't." He was then administered field sobriety tests which he failed, and refused a breathlyzer because his body guard, a police officer, told him to.  Police said he was very respectful during the entire situation and he wasn't treated any differently, but apparently he respectfully told police officers that he ran the stop sign because he was "in a hurry to pick up a 'hot' girl for sex." He told the officer, "You want to know the truth? I was gonna drive around the corner and get a blow job," and then explained that he got a blow job from her a week earlier and it was the best in his life. In the jail, he told a jail employee that he's get "my name tattoo'd on your ass" to get him out of the DUI charge, before his drunk ass corrected himself and said he's get "your named tattoo'd on my ass".  His BAC was .149 and he spent 10 days in jail (roommates with rapper DMX) for the arrest.

Barkley was enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2006

Tember Marchant PG Darton College

Okay, you're 18 years old. You've been drinking, and you need to get home. SHIT, it's raining. Fuck my ass what to do? Well just drive -- BUT BE CONSPICUOUS. Okay, easy on the gas. Shit is that a cop?  Okay, it was just a van full of blind children.

What do you do next? If you answered run a stop sign and T Bone a cop car, that's probably the wrong answer. But that's exactly what 18 year old freshman Tember Marchant did. Now she has something to be known for other than "the only white girl on the Darton basketball team" After the accident she wasn't hurt badly, but had to crawl out of the cruisers other door to get out. There were 4 other people in the car who being best friends scattered and got away.

The best part of this -- and the social media world we live in -- is to look at her tweets from that night.

First tweet from the night states:

@TemberMarchant3 : Tonight is gonna be so good. Leggo! Imma be lookin fly as hell! #Holla@me

Next tweet from her better explains her night:

@TemberMarchant3 : Ohhhhh hell yeah. Party started. I got my drink and my 2 step.. Technically my WOP.

2 Tweets later must be after the damage happened:

@TemberMarchant3 : Probably the worst night of my life.

I don't know where Darton College is, or what division they are even in, but they just beat Albany Technical College but lost to Georgia Perimiter

Klay Thompson G Washington State

Washington States star guard Klay Thompson leads the team in points and assists, and they recently got a big victory against USC. UCLA comes up next on the schedule, and he won't be playing. Why bench your best player? Well because he partied a little toooooo hard after the victory.

Klay, who's father was selected #1 overall in the 1978 NBA draft, was arrested for marijuana possession which led to his suspension. He was pulled over at around 11:00 PM for driving with a busted headlight. Police smelled marijuana coming from the car, which only he was in, and asked him if he had been smoking. Stupidly, because the cops have probable cause at that point to search the car, he said that he hadn't been smoking. He was put in handcuffs and when police acquired a search warrant they found 1.95 grams of marijuana. He was given a citation and released with a future court date.

Thompson leads the Pac-10 in scoring and scored 22 points against USC.

Coco Crisp CF Oakland A's

31 year old Oakland Athletics CF Coco Crisp, who has also played for the Cleveland Indians, Boston Redsox, and Kansas City Royals, was celebrating spring training a little too hard when he got arrested for suspicion of DUI. He becomes the third MLB player arrested for DUI since spring training started.

Driving his Rolles Royce, he was pulled over for failing to maintain his lane of traffic. He took sobriety tests, which he obviously failed, and was arrested with no further incidents.

The Oakland A's released the following statement regarding the situation:

"Coco Crisp was arrested and detained early this morning under the suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol. He was released from the city of Scottsdale jail this morning and arrived at Phoenix Municipal Stadium on time for team pregame drills. The A's are aware of the situation and take such matters seriously. The team and Coco will have no further comment until further details are available."

Patrick Kane RW Chicago Blackhawks

From Deadspin, more pictures of notorious partier All Star Chicago Blackhawks RW Patrick Kane drinking have been released to the internet. There probably isn't a more expensive cup in the world than the Stanley Cup, and Kane uses it to its full glory, as well as allowing some hotties to use it. Of course this season Kane has been accused of missing practices due to a hangover, or as the team called "flu like symptoms".  Living the life.

Austin Kearns OF Cleveland Indians

Way back on February the 12th Austin Kearns, the former member of the New York Yankees, Cincinnati Reds, Washington Nationals, and current Cleveland Indians was arrested for DUI. He was followed by a cop who saw him flashing his headlights and weaving through traffic, and when pulled over he admitted to drinking "a couple" of bourbon and cokes. He refused to take a field sobriety tests and asked the officers to cut him a break. However they didn't and he was cuffed and booked. Then, not on top of things, he didn't tell the Indians about the arrest, however he will be addressing it soon.

Matt Skole IF Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech 3B Matt Skole was suspended from Georgia Tech for the 2nd game of the season this year for "violation of team rules". Apparently driving drunk is against team rules. Skole must have skimmed that page.

Skole allegedly crossed the center line multiple times before being pulled over by the police. When pulled over police noticed that his eyes were watery and bloodshot, and Skole admitted to drinking a bourbon and coke. The All-ACC performer last season refused a breathalyzer and was charged with failure to maintain lane and and DUI.

Skole is projected to be drafted in the 3rd round of the 2011 MLB draft.

Alexis Wangmene F Texas

Texas Longhorns forward Alexis Wangmene has been suspended indefinitely by the Longhorns for a DUI arrest this past Saturday. Wangmeme is just a reserve on the team averaging 9.7 minutes a game, with 2.4 points and 2.4 rebounds per game. The Junior was pulled over at about 4:30 AM before being arrested on the drunken driving charge. No other details have been released regarding his arrest.

Jarrett Jack G New Orleans Hornets

Former Georgia Tech star Jarrett Jack, current Hornets G who backs up All-Star Chris Paul, was arrested for DUI when he was pulled over for speeding early Sunday morning. Jack was pulled over in his black Mercedes going 66 in a 45 at around 4:00 AM Sunday morning. The officer paced his vehicle and determined that he was going faster than the speed limit, and then noticed him crossing the center lines and crossing the fog lines. When the car was stopped Jack smelled like alcohol, and then he took field sobriety tests which he clearly failed.

Next comes the tricky part. The breathalyzer in the jail was broken, so his BAC was not measured until 5:38 AM, and the test said = .079 -- .001 under the legal limit. Of course the alcohol leaves your body at a measurable amount per hour, and of course you can be charged with DUI, according to the article, if you are above .04 and are witnessed speeding and/or weaving. Jack is averaging 7.6 points/game and 2.8 assists/game backing up Paul.

Jarell Eddie F Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech freshman forward Jarell Eddie was charged last week Tuesday with marijuana possession. After the arrest, Eddie didn't appear in their loss to Virginia, with the coach saying it was a "coaches decision". Due to a rash of injuries this season, Eddie was one of only 8 scholarship players that were on the Tech roster, and he has scored 2.6 points/game and 2 rebounds/game in 24 games. No other details of the arrest have been released yet.

Miguel Cabrera 1B Detroit Tigers

First baseman Miguel Cabrera is a 5 time All Star in 8 years with the Florida Marlins and the Detroit Tigers. Also well known is the fact that he is a hall of fame drinker.

In October of 2009 he was arrested after an argument with his wife after a night of drinking. He was picked up from the police station at 7:30 AM after blowing a .26 which was tested at the police station. He played in a game later that day and went 0-4 a strikeout and 6 players left on base. Not bad for a guy with a raging hangover. It would have been better if he vomited on home plate. Following that arrest -- he spent 3 months in an alcohol rehab center in January of 2010. He stated at that time he had not taken a drink of alcohol since his October, 2009 arrest.

So much for that.

Last night at around 11:00 PM he was on the side of the road and his vehicle was smoking from the engine. Police said he was slurring his words heavily, had blood shot eyes, smelled like alcohol, and that he was acting combative, cocky, argumentative, and belligerent. He repeated to the officer “Do you know who I am, you don’t know anything about my problems.” and then just like out of a comedy film, he picked up a bottle James Buchanan Scotch Whiskey and started swigging straight from the bottle.

He was placed in handcuffs and when asked to get into the patrol car, he "used an expletive". After not listening to several commands, he pushed off the vehicle into the officer, and then the officer used 3-4 knee strikes into Cabrera's thigh which made him fall into the vehicle. He refused to take a breathalyzer later.

Making $20,000,000 this year at age 28, this is not the kind of start to the season he probably expected. He doesn't look to upset in his mugshot though.

Update: Video and Pictures released from his DUI arrest HERE. 

Delonte West SG Boston Celtics

We might now know how Celtics G Delonte West swooned LeBron James' mom. With Moet and Popeyes chicken. From 2006, as unearthed by Deadspin, we bring to you Delonte West's perfect Valentines Day [From ESPN's Page 2]:

Delonte: "I did a few romantic things in my day, but I'm not the world's most romantic guy. But I can tell you what I would consider a special night. First, at my lady's work, I would send her a card giving her instructions for the night. Send it to her about midday, so the rest of the day, she has time to think about exactly what I had planned. I would pick my date up. She wouldn't know where we were going. It's got to be a hot day, so I can drop the top in my SL [Mercedes]. I've got the white SL 500. I would tell her, she would have to wear white. She must have on a white dress, because I'm going to have on white. I'd have told her in the note, she has to wear her hair a certain way, just the way I like it. So, I pick her up in my white convertible. From there, I'd have the music pumping on the radio. The Jim Jones pumping, you know, 'Summer in Miami' song pumping. Got to keep a little gangsta, you can't be too soft. You can't be in there playing some guy that's crying, talking about don't leave me and love me baby, wah wah and all that. So Jim Jones pumping and then from there, wind blowing through the hair, boom, we get straight to the point -- we eat afterwards because I don't want to kiss no onions. I don't want to kiss you tasting like onions and steak and mushrooms and everything."
Teammate Orien Greene interrupts: "What, you taking her back to the Mot 6 [Motel 6]?"
Delonte: "So, where we going then? You know, with the female readers, I might get me a superstar off this one. I might get me Beyonce or something. OK, now listen to this, so put this in there, OK, so from driving the car, let's be real. I started off wining and dining and Rico Suave-ing it, then I'm going to have to hold to it and realistically, she's not going to get that every day. OK, so we'll be chilling in my SL on a nice hot day, we're going to let the day play out. But we have on all white, so we have to do something special."
Greene: "Take her to your yacht, dog."
Delonte: "Yeah, we're going to my yacht. We'll pull up at the docks and got a guy waiting for us, open our door up and we walk down a lit-up dock and onto the yacht, where we have dinner set up on the boat and we just cruise out on the water. Sit down and have some dinner, some shrimps and steaks, keep it nice and breezy. Pop some bottles, some Moet Rose. The red Moet, we ain't popping no Kristal, it tastes like urination. We ain't popping no Kris, that's $500 a bottle. It ain't that serious. It ain't going to get you drunk. Make sure you put that in there. We ain't doing a $500 bottle, we're doing a $99 wine and dine. While we're eating, have a singer. Who should I have?"
Greene: "R. Kelly."
Delonte: "I can't afford R. Kelly."
Green: "You can't afford R. Kelly? Oh, you talking about you going to actually have him on the boat singing? Oh, man, you doing it like that?! I'm telling you, you all might not come back for two, three days."
Delonte: "So, we are done eating, man, we've got to have someone singing while we're eating. OK, so from there, we're doing a midnight skinny-dipping jump. Alright? From there, hopefully she's got money because I hope Jaws gets her, boom, make sure she got me in the will, bank, I'm good. Oh well, shark got her! Jaws got her. Nah, we ain't going there.
Do some skinny dipping, but keeping it clean fun, don't need to get all right to the point, you know, keeping it clean. Boom, get back, take her back home. Give her a kiss, tell her I enjoyed my night, let's do it again. I don't want her in a situation, because skinny-dipping, she'll already be shaky about doing that if it's an early date, but most likely she will [skinny-dip], but I don't want to end up in one of those situations where you're feeling the mood too much and you try to press the situation and you came all out your hook up. And now you leave feeling lame because you'd try to force the issue and she really wasn't with it, and I know that's happened to a lot of guys out there, you done and feel the night a little too much. So, just keep it nice and easy, and I think from there she'd have a good enough impression where she might want to do it again."
With all this romance talk, you must be a big Valentine's Day fan?
Delonte: "I hate it because -- you got to make sure you print this -- it's the biggest misconception. There's been couples that have fell out on Valentine's Day because the guy has forgot or didn't do anything special. But before Valentine's Day, for two weeks in advance, at every store, you see cards and balloons with Happy Valentine's Day, candy on sale: Two for $49.99 and the mini one for $19.99, and each female that is in that store shopping, three, four times a week, sees everything she probably going to get, so is it really that special? I think it's more special if it's just the guy happens to give her flowers on a Monday and say Happy Monday and not wait for the world to say, 'On this day, give your wife flowers.' See, if she doesn't know she's getting flowers and she gets them, she'll say, 'Oh, this is the most beautiful thing you've ever done for me.' I think Valentine's Day is just a day for candy makers and card makers to make some more money. I think you should be romantic on your own time."
Anything more to say, Delonte?
Delonte: "One more thing: When we're on the yacht eating, we're going to have some Popeyes chicken. That's for dinner. It's to let her know, put a mental image on her mind, first and foremost, if you ain't from the hood, you don't like Popeyes chicken. Everyone there loves Popeyes chicken and the biscuits -- phew. But that's just getting it on her mind, saying, you know, 'Yeah, I can wine and dine you, but I'm a little rough around the edges and I'm keeping it real with you. I can be romantic, but this is real, we're going to eat some chicken tonight. Chicken and biscuits.'"

West is a former first round pick by the Boston Celtics, who played for the Seattle SuperSonics and the Cleveland Cavaliers before returning to the Celtics. No word yet if Valtrex for his suspected herpes which has been rumored for quite a while.

Again, From ESPN's Page 2.

Adrian Nieto, Hector Taveras C Washington Nationals

Hector Taveras, a Washington Nationals minor league catcher has been suspended for 25 games for unauthorized possession of a syringe. Most of the suspensions for steroid use is 50 games for testing positive, however the league must have lowered the suspension due to the fact that he never tested positive for the drug, only possessing something to put the drug in him.

Also, previously unknown, Nationals catcher Adrian Nieto was suspended 50 games for testing positive for performance enhancing drugs last week. Sounds like we might know where the syringe came from.

Charlie Bell G Golden State Warriors

Golden State Warriors guard Charlie Bell, who was traded to the Warriors from the Milwaukee Bucks this past summer, was arrested at 2:45 AM for suspicion of DUI. The former undrafted free agent out of Michigan State has averaged only 7.8 minutes per game this season with the Warriors. While he sucks and had to have his teammate, Reggie Williams, get him out of jail as well as being charged with a DUI, he's still married to an ex-Miss Michigan Kenya Bell, and he gets to go home to this. So good for him.

Troy Patton P Baltimore Orioles

Troy Patton, a former Houston Astro and current Baltimore Oriole pitcher, was pulled over and arrested for DUI. He was caught speeding down the road before hopping his car over a curb when he was pulled over police, and failed a breathlayzer blowing a .14. His career record is 0-2, but since this is his first offense DUI his career drunk driving record is likely a lot better.

Jonathan Papelbon CL Boston Red Sox

Jonathan Papelbon is seen here drinking court side at an NBA game. Papelbon is a 4 time All Star for the Boston Red Sox, with 422 strike outs and 188 saves as a closer. He is the first pitcher in history to record 30 saves in each of his first 5 years of MLB service, however, 25 his first 5 seasons would have held that record also so he went above and beyond what was needed. The Red Sox closer position has been given to Daniel Bard and he will be a free agent soon, or could possibly be traded.

Earl Weaver Manager Baltimore Orioles

Here is Earl Weaver, a Hall of Fame manager for the Baltimore Orioles, and Dan Stanhouse a 1 time all star who pitched for 10 years int he league drinking in the Orioles locker room. Stanhouse allegedly had a reputation for walking batters he did not want to face, which enraged Weaver and made him change smoke cigarettes and gave him the nick name "FullPack" for the amount of cigarettes he would smoke while watching him pitch. Weaver was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in 1996, probably with the best statistic -- 97 ejections -- under his plaque.

Brian Cashman GM New York Yankees

From BuzzFeed comes New York Yankees General Manager and Senior Vice President Brian Cashman bartending and drinking at a local charity event. During his tenure which began as an intern in 1986, he has won 4 World Series Championships. Also on Drunk Athlete.

Adam Kennedy IF Seattle Mariners

Adam Kennedy, utility infielder extraordinaire, was arrested on suspicion of a DUI. Kennedy, who signed a minimum contract with the Seattle Mariners this month, was arrested at 9pm while driving down the highway. That's right, 9pm. Party hard. Kennedy was a part of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in the District of Calfornia's (or something like that, we will just go with L.A. Angels of Anaheim) 2002 World Series Championship team. In game 5 of the 2002 series, Kennedy hit three home runs, something only four other players had done in a post season game before. Kennedy's career slowly started to disappear after that series as his offense turned absolutely T-R-B-L. The only other highlight of Kennedy's career was during a bench-clearing brawl in which he punched pitcher Scott Feldman in the armpit.

Poor guy, if the last three teams I played for were the Oakland Athletics, Washington Nationals, and the Seattle Mariners(he has to pass try-outs first though!), I'd probably live life with reckless abandon too.

Ozzie Canseco OF/DH Ex-Oakland Athletics

Ozzie Canseco, twin brother of the steroided up nut job that is Jose Canseco, has found himself behind bars on charges of DUI. This Canseco, not known for the power hitting of his brother Jose, never hit a major league home run, and as a fact only hit .200 with 13 hits and 4 RBI's. He now almost has as many arrests as RBI's. In 2002 him and his brother went tourist beating in California and left a man with a broken nose and another needing 20 stitches on his lips. For that he was sentenced to 18 months of probation and 200 hours of community service.
