Checking the news section of the site it looks like quite a few guys in the NFL are getting minor charges.

The article says he was going into a pizza place and and he appeared drunk. As long as he wasn't driving drunk to get to the pizza place, I got no problem. I've been "publicly intoxicated" more times than I care to recall (many many many years ago of course -well past the statute of limitations ago).

I agree; without any additional charges it really doesn't bother me. That's a pretty popular area in Iowa to hop around place to place on foot. I'm wondering what "trying to enter" means... either the place was actually closed.. or he was having trouble getting the door open.. or what?
No nuisance, disturbance, resisting, etc charges.. no big deal. Took the cop walking up to him to know he was drunk so apparently he wasn't stumbling along falling through trashcans or something.

Who hasn't walked into a pizza parlor drunk at 2am? No biggie.

Well, I can tell you from experience that cops get nervous around big guys who appear drunk. Even if you are completely docile, polite, and respectful, cops tend to not give you any leeway and are more hostile to big boys than others.
Not saying that played a role in this case, but it wouldn't surprise me.
