Schadenfreude

It's a slooow weekend here at Rumblings so I thought I'd throw (up) a quick feel-good-because-it-makes-others-feel-bad (man, schadenfreude is easier to type than some things...) story on the front page. PFT, by way of Joe Buck's favorite website, is reporting that Joey Porter has been arrested and

eventually charged with 3 misdemeanors -- DUI, resisting arrest and assault on a peace officer.
Many of us were hoping that Buffalo would sign Porter but CHIX decided, wisely, to let him go to Arizona. There certainly were red flags in Porter's past. I'm guessing that thuggish behavior combined with a dimished skill set were sufficient to scare CHIX away. My guess is that Porter draws a suspension, particularly since the league has suspended him in the past. Give CHIX credit for getting this decision right all the way around.
I guess the broader question is whether CHIX will look to divest the team of players who have issues and recently smaller stat lines and/or if the Bills will avoid guys like LeGarrette Blount who have had issues of their own.
