Louis was also sentenced to three years of informal probation and a $565 fine as part of his plea deal with the San Diego City Attorney’s Office after pleading guilty Friday to misdemeanor assault. Authorities say Louis assaulted SDSU teammate Nick Sandford in a team meeting room last fall. Sandford suffered a concussion, broken eardrum and fractured cheekbone.

Sounds like Louis has a mean streak like Kruetz. How can the NFL punish Lance when his offense happended while he was a student at SDSU?

nfoligno Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 I don't remember who the player was, but I believe there was a player who was punished for something that happend prior to being in the NFL. Personally, what I think is more likely is that Louis may be using up his one free pass, so to speak. For many smaller offenses, players will get essentially a warning. But if a player gets in trouble a 2nd time, its punishment time. This may be Loius' warning. Fair or not, Goddell has really drawn a line in the sand and is trying to clean up the sport. I was wondering that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
