You know who was thrilled about the situation with Terrell Owens today? Terrence Kiel. Because he was arrested yesterday during a Chargers practice and charged with selling drugs, and no one has any idea. I felt like it was a pretty major story when I posted it last night, and today, I haven't seen a word about it.Yesterday was a fantastic day for an NFL player to commit a crime. If only Odell Thurman had a better sense of timing.
More details emerged today about Kiel's arrest. Kiel admitted to shipping two parcels of prescription cough syrup to Texas. If you're wondering what's incriminating about prescription cough syrup, it's used to make a liquid drug often called "lean," "purple drank," or "sizzurp." The ingredients for the drink include promythazine cough syrup (the promythazine is key), Sprite, and a purple Jolly Rancher. It's known to produce an extremely relaxed and mellow feeling.
Kiel was shipping the cough syrup to Texas, he's from Texas, and Texas is where "lean" became popular. The two biggest reasons I know any of this, I'm ashamed to say, are Paul Wall, Mike Jones (both Houston rappers), and a song by Frayser Boy entitled "I Got Dat Drank." I believe it's the only rap song to ever rhyme the word "promythazine."
Marlon McCree is expected to slide over to Kiel's strong safety spot for the Chargers on Sunday against Baltimore, and Bhawoh Jue will start at the free safety position.

What a buzzkill. I thought it was for something cool, like coke. Freaking cough syrup...I don't care if it had codeine in it and it killed DJ Screw, that's just not going to get you top billing.
Also, why is Terrence Kiel shipping off cough syrup, and how did he get it? Does he know someone at the Robitussin Corp.?

Hi there. I'm a 2 year pigskin blogger who wrote for free for two years and a group of us helped Jamie get to where he is, and you guys replaced us hacks! I did the Charger blog, and still do. You will now get all my traffic, our site is now a dead entity. Plug pulled and rug pulled out from under us. No warning. Hope Jamie dosen't use you like a tube of toothpaste, and then throw you under the bus and rub your nose in sh*t! Nothing personal against you, you probably didn't know. Just warning you. AOL SUCKS!

I think the key here is that Terrence plays in San Diego, which means a whale's vagina. It's also in close proxemity to Tijuana, where I hear the kids get these prescription pharmaceuticals with somewhat less scrutiny than here in the states.
That guy in No. 2 has a pretty advanced vocabulary for a two-year-old "pigskin blogger."

Hate to nitpick, but Beanie Sigel's "Purple Rain" also rhymes promythazine.

Diego is also the name of a Blood type.
