Re: Name sports figures who have been convicted and if they came back
[ QUOTE ]
Heatley was also seriously injured himself as a result of the crash and spent most of 03-04 rehabbing. The death in that case was of his teammate Dan Snyder. Sad story. [/ QUOTE ] Not to be callous, but that story isn't nearly as sad as the woman being killed by Little. A couple of buddies getting drunk and driving and one of them dying is nowhere near as tragic as taking out an innocent bystander.

[/ QUOTE ] Oh, I 100% agree - and that's why I think Heatley didn't deserve any punishment from the NHL as a result, whereas Little should have been punished. Snyder wanted to see what his friend's Ferrari could do.

Has Tank Johnson caught on anywhere after the Bears released him? [/ QUOTE ] No but there is no reason for anyone to pick him up yet, he still has the suspension coming and if someone waits until after week 1 to sign him then they wont have to guarantee his salary for the year.
