Atlanta Falcons defensive back Lawyer Milloy was arrested for driving under the influence early Monday, about 12 hours after playing Sunday in the Falcons' loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.Via PFT, the local sheriff's office says Milloy was booked at 4:35 a.m EDT, and released at 9:48 a.m. EDT.
Milloy has started all 34 games for the Falcons since signing with the team in 2006 as a free agent from the Bills. As the Atlanta Journal-Constitution notes, Milloy is considered a leader both on the field and in the Falcons' locker room. He played on two Super Bowl teams with the New England Patriots before joining the Falcons, and from the day the Falcons signed him, he's been considered a solid veteran presence on the team.

Really...it's a DUI. People get a life. This is not a crime that warrants this much press. Don't judge anyone...this could happen to anyone that goes out to dinner and has a few drinks.

Maybe if you paid attention in school, you could've gotten better than a bullshit job and you wouldn't be drinking to forget about your bullshit life!

THIS IS THE GUY WHO ATTACKED BILL BELICHICK'S CHARACTER. HIS MOTHER NAMED HIM OUT OF THE PHONEBOOK BY PICKING THE FIRST THING SHE SAW WHICK WAS THE LISTINGS FOR A LAWYER. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN CLOSER TO REALITY HAD SHE NAMED HIM FOR A PROCTOLOGIST.

I would attack Bellachoke's character too. SPYGATE mean anything to you Patriot fans? Plus he is a real gentleman to The Jets coach. He did the Jets right by bolting for the Pats after the Jets named him head coach. Great coach, yes, great person, no.

This is really sad. football players have to handle stress too, clearly, this is not the right way. Again, he is human. Call a cab. It is worth it for you and society. No one can escape the law for long or a would be tragedy, remorse would never escape you depending how you are.
