In what way is the subject of this headline about "Pro Football?"
"PRO FOOTBALL: Jaguars' Jones Arrested On Drug Charge in Ark."

That's not about football. It's about someone who was arrested for drugs.

(Off topic: Ooh. Someone in the U.S. arrested for drugs! What next -- criminalizing alcohol?)

I hate crap like this.

1. It's all about football...
Anymore, the only football news involves players, cops, drugs, guns and strippers.

6. Fine, I'll make it up to you
Right before falling into the warm, meaty embrace of Luiz Felipe Scolari, our hero cries like the punkass whiny asshat he is.

2. He plays for the Jaguars.
Otherwise it would be "random guy arrested on drug charge" and probably not headline news. :shrug:

8. he is a public figure...
and as a pro athlete, that is the topic it falls under....hypothetically if he were an actor, it would go under HOLLYWOOD or ENTERTAINMENT....
