Officer, it’s NOT a shotgun in his pants!!! Santonio Holmes was cited for possession of marijuana Thursday after a traffic stop yesterday. Holmes handed over a few blunts and was issued a misdemeanor citation. Sgt. James Vogel of the Pittsburgh P.D. doesn’t want pissed-off Steelers fans to take out their frustrations over a possible NFL suspension out on him:
Vogel said Holmes was very cooperative, respectful and wasn’t impaired. He thinks that should be taken into account when it comes to any potential action taken against him by the Steelers and the NFL. “We wouldn’t expect a steelworker to be laid off or suspended without pay,” said Vogel. “I wouldn’t expect a police officer, firefighter or a member of the Steelers.”
Actually, most people expect that a cop would get suspended if they were cited for criminal possession. Santonio, expect a terse voicemail from Goodell’s office.

@Ape
Fear not, I have visions of him streaking by an utterly confused (insert one of the following names here: Deltha O’Neal/Lewis Sanders/Jonathan Wilhite) in a few weeks.
Pennsylvania seems to have reasonable laws regarding Sweet Miss Mary Jane. If that had happened in a few other states with NFL teams, it could have been a lot worse. I hear that in Texas, possession while black is grounds for summary execution.
My fantasy team is officially in shambles. And “We wouldn’t expect a steelworker to be laid off or suspended without pay,” is exactly what would happen to anyone else who isn’t making millions of $.
@ Ocho Cinco Fan Club:
Obviously, you have never seen a Cheech and Chong movie.
@TF: last time i checked, i’ve never seen a blunt big enough to qualify as a “giant” dong. and there’s no mention of santonio trying to get into the guiness book with his rolling prowess.
If sgt. retard didn’t want Santonio to not get suspended, why they hell did he give him the citation? Taking bribes for silence works just as well these days as they did 30 years ago. DUH!
“We wouldn’t expect a steelworker to be laid off or suspended without pay,” said Vogel.
Laid off from what? Eating fritos and watching The Price is Right? Uh, Sgt. Vogel? Pittsburgh’s steel mills closed, oh, about 25 years ago.
Why do I get the feeling a certain smirring Chinaman might have set Santonio up..
Why should a player be suspended simply for possessing weed? After all, he was polite.
I heard the Bengals are now interested in trading for him.
I know we’re not supposed to talk about the banner ads, but the ones attached to this post are hilarious.
Paging Mr. Holmes, paging Mr Holmes.
There is a B. Morris holding on line 2.
Has he ever caught a touchdown pass on WEED MAN!!!
/red team go, red team go
That must have been one huge blunt.
Yay! Now he has as many arrests as touchdown catches this season!
/embittered Steelers fan and fantasy owner
No, officer, that’s not a blunt; it’s just my GIANT DONG!
