KOREN KAPUT
It's fitting, we suppose, that a guy who is scheduled to spend a day in jail on DUI charges might take a few belts of brewski before reporting to the hoosegow.
Incredibly stupid, but fitting.
According to Mike Sando of The Tacoma News Tribune, former Seahawks receiver Koren Robinson allegedly was intoxicated when he reported for his one-day sentence on Wednesday.
Robinson was in jail as of Thursday night on a $25,000 cash bond on charges of violating a Court order that he abstain from alcohol.
Though he denies (predictably) any wrongdoing, our strong sense is that it's over.
Done.
Kaput.
Even if Robinson's recent escapades don't result in a one-year banishment from the NFL for violation the substance abuse policy, we can't imagine any NFL team offering Robinson any amount of money to play football.
His only chance, as we see it, is to get cleaned up, head to Canada, and try to show on a sustained basis the potential that made him a top ten pick in 2001. Then and only then will he have a shot (pun intended) at getting back into the NFL.
