News of NFL bust squared, JaMarcus Russell being arrested was not only shocking but painfully hilarious once it was released what the former Oakland Raider was arrested for.
Daniela Werner of the Mobile (Ala.) Press-Register reports that Russell was arrested in his home during an undercover investigation that resulted in the discovery of codeine syrup, which often is mixed with soda and called “purple drank” or “lean” or “sizzurp.”
The charge of his arrest is possession of a controlled substance. That’s right boys and girls people still drink “sizzurp”…and apparently are not smart enough to avoid getting caught. Russell was booked at 4:22 p.m. and posted bail for himself at $2,500 off dat dranky drink.
JaMarcus entered the league as one of the biggest names at the quarterback position for African Americans in 2007. Once named the starter in 2008 he lead the team to back to back 5-11 seasons and showed absolutely no growth or discipline to learning and mastering the game. He was released by the team on May 6, 2010 and not many teams have shown interest in the 24 year old QB. This situation will not help his case of being a responsible future teammate for any franchise.
