It would be a small investment for teams to hire a driver, shuttle bus, or taxi service. Dumb athletes with $ and cars still haven't figured out to let a friend have the pleasure of driving a (insert $100K car) and keep the streets safe and your butt out of trouble. Drunk driving by millionaires should be held to full penalty of Goodell.
I believe the NFL has that type of service already. Which makes it that much worse.

No that means 0.24% of his blood was alcohol. BAC calculates from the basis of 1% (so a BAC of 1 would mean that by volume 1% of the fluid in your bloodstream was alcohol).
Pretty bad way to start off a career, and Florida isn't the greatest place to reform a party lifestyle.
Especially when you're in Jacksonville, which is probably the dullest NFL city in Florida to be in.

Blackmon was dumb & this was a bad way to start. However, he's about 20 years old and just got millions of dollars. We ALL KNOW they're going to parties. Maturity is something that comes with time and allows for mistakes along the way. I'd wait to see if this was a repetitive behavior before busting his chops.
An example of repetitive behavior = smoking pot after getting caught -- again and again...

I don't know to what lengths you'd go to define repetitive, but this is his second DUI in less than two years, and this one is aggravated on top of that (aka his BAC had to meet a pretty high qualifier). Coincidence? Maybe. But he's certainly laying the foundation for the "repetitive" part of your argument. If this one doesn't qualify as repetitive surely the next one will.

Aggravated had to be .15 and he was .24, three times the legal limit. Sounds like someone needs a baby sitter. Sucks for the Jags. Just think about what a fire media storm it'd be around here if we had drafted him and he did that.

I'm guessing he wasn't aware of his prior offense.
2 DUI's in less than 2 years definitely = pure stupidity on Blackmon's part. Not a good way to start your NFL career. Someone call this guy a cab.

In most states the second DUI had mandatory jail time.

Yeah that's my bad, I was confusing him with someone else.
