Naked, drunk and tased is no way to go through life, son

    As it says in the article, this is clearly the frontrunner for sports arrest of the year. Maybe the decade.
    Oregon State offensive lineman Tyler Thomas was arrested after police found him naked and drunk in a woman's house (he did not know her). When police confronted Thomas, he got down in a three-point stance and charged the cops.
    And that's when they broke out the Taser.
    Thomas has been kicked off the team.

    From the police report:

    The police noticed his knuckles were white - indicating a running play. So they tased him.

    So, if you're naked when they arrest you is that how they lock you up?

    Former Duck Masoli is so upset about being upstaged by a Beaver, now he'll have to get himself into a fourth unfortunate situation and get arrested again.

    A friend of mine (sheriff's deputy) once had to arrest a 300-pound naked man, who was sitting in a tub surround by lit candle (he had broken in). It turned into a "slippery wrestling" match. My buddy said he burned his uniform that night and asked for a desk job.

    Can't blame him for wanting a desk job.
