Fred Davis' Day in Court Makes Him Late for Practice

I wonder who he told the police he was

Wow.

Well at least it is not something serious. A few moving violations is not to serious. But why did he have a suspended license in the first place? Speeding tickets in Loudon and Fairfax County?

He won't face a suspension for any of this I would assume since these are only minor violations.

Smoot is it a national story?

They say he's had 7 moving violations in Loudoun and Fairfax since coming here in June of 08, he's been cited as recently as August 7th for reckless in Fairfax due to speed. Several tickets due to tinted windshields and non-inspected vehicles as well.

I've seen people do time for that type of record.

Sometimes we forget that a lot these guys are in their early 20's and some of the act like it. Time to get your shit straight and grow up FD.

I'm gonna guess either Chris Cooley or Roger Goodell.

Man you gotta keep a clean driving record when you're living in VA.. I live in MD and dread going into VA or the district because of their strict driving laws. That said, this isn't really that much to worry about; everyone has to find out how obnoxious the legal system is once in their life.

Fred "Sleepy" Davis...
is now
Fred "Misdemeanor" Davis

Missy Elliott might not wanna share that one.

I know plenty of guys with a bad driving record. They have not been to jail, driving violations are easy to fight in court because the law or the police can be liegient when you show up to court. They are quick to give people breaks on the charges. Moving violations not involving drugs or alcohol are minor, and can be attributed to youth.

The tint issue is not that big of a deal to me and to be honest, if I was a sports star I might have some dark tint on my car as well so I am not hassled as I drive.

Especially with so many states having to be picky about who they send to jail for the lower end crimes thanks to budget constraints. Heck in California you see guys like Chris Brown get off with community service on the East Coast (thanks Cali, it's no wonder gangs love working over there).

Still I'm a little worried about this. I mean God knows we have Ovechkin doing more then we care to admit but Ovi seems to be good at not getting caught. Fred on the other hand I could easily see getting caught on an NFL drug test for smoking pot. This is the guy that's suppose to be our number 2 or 3 receiver this year in what looks to be a somewhat innovative offense. Of course if Thomas continues to step up it could easily be Sellers that ends up being the odd man out.
