Sports in Courtsblog Monday Police Blotter: JaMarcus Russell and Chris Simms

Posted on July 6, 2010 by Chris Fusco

 -- JaMarcus Russell was arrested, in Alabama, yesterday as part of an 

undercover investigationinvolving the illegal possession of narcotic strength codeine syrup. Apparently, codeine syrup can be combined with alcohol and sugar (i.e. Jolly Ranchers) to enhance the effects of booze (refered as "Purple Drank"). Check the link here, about how Purple Drank makes you fat and out of shape.

Since JaMarcus is now unemployed, this might be a negative for his resume. Nice work, big guy.

-- Not to be outdone, Chris Simms, backup quarterback of the Tennessee Titans was arrested, in Manhattan after a traffic stop when he told police he was smoking "marijuana." Now Simms claims that he meant "cigarettes." I wonder if his car looked like it was out of a "Cheech and Chong" movie.

Oh well, the misdemeanor drug case is on for August 23. Normally, first time drug possession in NYC will result in a slap on the wrist.
