Not much to say, I thought this was a necro-bump. I probably should have known better. What is this, his third or fourth incident since joining the Packers?
There is a pattern here of irresponsible, and arrogant or foolish behavior. If I am reading correctly, there is a $333k cap hit to get rid of him now.

He was arrested with a BAC of .086. While illegal, that's going out and having two beers and heading home after dinner.
I don't want to open a debate about anything political here, but just for context, he wasn't arrested for "drunk driving" in the same sense that he went out, drank his face off, and made a terrible decision to get behind the wheel. 15 years ago, the limit was .10. So whatever your opinion on it, this was very close to the scope of legal, and not all that uncommon from what anybody who has drinks at a bar or restaurant and drives home after is measuring at.
Basically I'm saying that in my opinion this doesn't represent a clear bonehead move. Could he have gotten a taxi? Yes. But do most people driving with the same BAC in Green Bay, WI? Unfortunately, no.

I'm guessing that for a man of his size, that would be more than two beers.
I agree with your statement that he wasn't sloppy and made a really bad decision, but it also wasn't as innocent as 2 beers during dinner.
The main point about this guys is that he is constantly getting himself into trouble. This isn't an isolated incident. It is a pattern of behavior. That's why they should move on from him.

That is where I sit. None of his incidents, that I recall, would warrant moving on if it were his only blunder, but he seems to always do something.

I agree. This pattern of behavior is a problem. |

A .08 and everyone wants to cut the guy?
No issue here whatsoever.
Keep him around, we need him. |

Just found out this was from blazing saddles, always assumed it was from the Transformers show. |
Your money is on Price, does Ringo have a good chance and anything you like about Price other than he is the next best big. |

Ringo's got a shot to make the team but Ringo and Guion play different positions
Guion is a 0-1, Ringo is a 3T

Agreed on all fronts. I'm 5'11" 185 and 2 beers does NOT put me over .8 at all. As minor as this really is, this should be the final straw for Guion. The Packers website has Ringo directly behind Guion on the depth chart, but I would think Kenny Clark could move over and take that position over. Guion was signed as a stop-gap player, he is replaceable... |

Raji is done and never coming back. Might as well say "go sign zombie Reggie White".
