Cocaine kingpin eludes global manhunt while playing in string of professional football teams

When I first saw it I thought it was a story about Lawrence Taylor.
But it was a South American soccer player.

When I first saw it I thought it was a story about Lawrence Taylor.

Never a drug kingpin.
Or ever wanted in a global manhunt.
Played only for one football team.
But yeah, we can see the correlation..
Was the soccer player ever in The Sopranos?

That was an interesting longform story in the Washington Post, not news you can't use.

I was being sarcastic, there was no reason to joke that it was LT.

You can't imagine how much I loathe that person. I never miss an opportunity to take a shot at his image.

This was a guy who failed the NFL drug test three times, and admitted he played while under the influence of crack. There is no indication that he ever spent one minute in the mandatory rehab. When asked about that by a reporter, he said. "My rehab is golf. I'll see you out on the course".
This is a guy who said at an inner city (Newark) high school assembly' I am NOT going to tell you NOT to take drugs".
I'll keep insulting that reprehensible POS every chance I get. And If it is a stretch, so be it.

Right, we were supposed to get all that based on your post about
a soccer player in So America that wasn't Lawrence Taylor in the
News You Can't Use thread. Got it, thanks for clearing it up.

Once I read the article, I realized I couldn't use it.
And that's why I put it in this thread.
