PCRoughrider Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 June 19, 2006CBS SportsLine.com wire reports COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes was charged with domestic violence early Monday, police said. Holmes was arrested at an apartment just after midnight and taken to Franklin County Jail, Sgt. Loucious Hollis said. He is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday morning. Hollis confirmed the domestic violence charge against Holmes, but declined to say who made the complaint or provide details of the allegation. A message left for the Steelers by the Associated Press was not immediately returned. It was Holmes' second arrest since being selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. He was arrested in Miami Beach, Fla., for disorderly conduct during a Memorial Day weekend crackdown by local authorities. Steelers coach Bill Cowher criticized Holmes the following week, but said he wouldn't hold the incident against the former Ohio State receiver. "Whatever he did wrong, I don't think he handled it properly," Cowher said then. "I think he'll learn from it and understand the scrutiny he's under. We have not talked face to face about it. I don't have any long-term concerns."

carter23 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 so how about those steeler fans not missing ARE at all? They go from a veteran known as a great community guy to a rookie arrested twice before training camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxSpearheadxX Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 so how about those steeler fans not missing ARE at all? They go from a veteran known as a great community guy to a rookie arrested twice before training camp Yeah, and with ARE we have to remember he had never ever ever played WR before the NFL, so all of his success has come in about 3 years of playing about as much of a position change as one could have. QB 2 WR is way diff than RB 2 WR. Not only are they missing ARE, I bet they are missing Chad Jackson and Sinorice moss :laugh: Mel Kiper was saying at the draft he was blown away that they didn't draft jackson over Holmes, oh wells not everyone has Gibbs grading out talent.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruffylookin Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I posted this after his first arrest and it still seems appropriate. I wonder how the media would be treating the Redskins FO if it had been the Redskins who let a classy guy (who also happened to be a Super Bowl hero) like ARE go and then go out and waste a draft pick on Santonio Holmes? Classy bunch those Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPinstripe Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Just another guy coming out of college thinking he is now the shiznit. He thinks he can do whatever he wants. You would think he would have enough brains to realize he will completly ruin his chance at an NFL career and potential millions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba9497 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 The Super NBowl Jinxs continues... except they were the winners. Lost ARE, Big Ben's Big Bang, and their #1 already has serious issues :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SackMachine Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I thought Bill Cowher would have had him under control by now, he seems like the tough love kind of coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bostic Hog Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I would like to add to this thread a column written by John Saraceno of the USA Today. In this column he talks about the litany of arrest of NFL players this off-season. Check it out. Its eye-opening. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/columnist/saraceno/2006-06-20-saraceno-nfl-arrests_x.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
