only two habits I still have are beer and the lust for sex.

If I had to, I would give up beer

ST. PETER, Minn. (AP) Minnesota Vikings receiver Koren Robinson was arrested Tuesday night on suspicion of drunken driving and fleeing from police.
Robinson's blue BMW sedan was caught on radar going more than 100 mph in a 55 mph zone at about 10:45 p.m., according to a police report. Chief Matt Peters said Robinson refused to stop when pursued by officers. He eventually was arrested by police about 10 miles away in Mankato, where the Vikings hold their training camp.
Robinson was in the Nicollet County jail on Wednesday, with charges possible later in the day, Peters said. He said it was "a good possibility" that the receiver would face a felony charge of fleeing police in addition to a possible DWI charge.
Peters said Robinson was given field tests for drunken driving, but he wouldn't give details. He said it appeared from reports that Robinson cooperated with police after he was stopped.
Robinson's agent, Alvin Keels, didn't immediately respond to messages from The Associated Press. A Vikings spokesman said the team had no immediate comment.
Robinson, 26, has a prior history with the league that includes a four-game suspension in 2004 for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy when he was with Seattle. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello wouldn't comment directly on Robinson Wednesday, but said the league reviews cases based on its policy.
Robinson was a standout for the Seahawks, but his career there soured after problems including the league suspension in 2004. After pleading guilty to DUI in 2005, he was cut by the Seahawks and later spent 28 days in an alcohol treatment facility.
Given a second chance with the Vikings, he turned into the team's most dangerous receiver and made his first trip to the Pro Bowl, as a kick returner. The Vikings rewarded him with a new three-year contract in March that included $5.5 million in guaranteed money.
In July, Robinson said in an interview with the AP that he knew he'd always be under scrutiny as a recovering alcoholic. He acknowledged that he was taking some relapse prevention classes in preparation for the NFL season, when he said he would have little time to work on maintaining his recovery.
A loss of Robinson's services for any length of time would be a significant blow for the Vikings, who announced Tuesday that rookie linebacker Chad Greenway, their top draft pick, was out for the season with a knee injury.

...with a term called cut bait and that sounds like what the Vikings are about to do.

Childress said: "I have no tolerance" for irresponsible players.
"I am trying to create a culture of accountability," he said. "It doesn't matter who it is. ... You can't drive when you've been drinking."

this would make the Vikings the new #1 favorite in the Ashley Lelie sweepstakes.

looks like Marc Boerighter will be the first one cut, it is sounding more and more like Fergie is secure for the good or bad of that

I doubt Childress wants anything to do with the poor mans TO aka Porter.
