Titans defensive end Jevon Kearse has not spoken publicly since his arrest for driving under the influence, but Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean has a look at how other Titans are reacting to the news.
Most interestingly, Wyatt reports that one of Kearse’s teammates noted he could have used Safe Ride Solutions, which allows players to call for a ride if they’ve had too much to drink.
“There have been some programs we’ve discussed,’’ punter Craig Hentrich said. “It’s just a shame that wasn’t taken advantage of.’’
Said Titans tight end Alge Crumpler, “This is something that happened to an older veteran and something that has happened, unfortunately, throughout this league. But if we can kind of teach our guys and learn from this situation hopefully we can continue to have a brighter future.’’
Kearse has a July 14 court date. His attorney, Roger May, represented former Titans quarterback Steve McNair in a 2003 drunk driving case that was eventually dismissed.

Maybe they should rename the team the Hennessee Titans with all the boozehounds on the team these days.

Wish they had that for civilians, re non-football players. I mean sometimes when you are the bar, the Vikings are losing again or choking away a game, I end up putting too many back. I hate trying to drive home like that.

Yeah, then they could use The Humpty Dance as their fight song: We’ll drink up all the Hennessy you got on your shelf so just let us introduce ourselves… We’re The Titans!

They do. They are called taxi’s. It may cost you 20 bucks for a long ride, but much cheaper than a DUI or involintary manslaughter.

Instead of “lets do the hump” have Haynesworth lead the chorus of “lets do the stump” and have him stomping on a dummy head while doing it.

Wasn’t McNair charged because he owned the vehicle even though he was’t in it at the time? I don’t think that will work for the Freak.
