Actually in this case I wondered why the pro athlete got booked on a felony while his buddies got a misdemeanor charge. Now, he'll probably come out of it better than you or I would....but sometimes being "famous" has negative side affects as well.

My guess is that Sooie was the one actually cutting up the coke while his suck ups just had the misfortune of being there.

wouldn't he get more for possession?

if his buddies weren't in possession, but they were just gettin' a little high then they aren't as guilty as the dude gettin' a little high but holding a bag full of the junk.

ooh ooh that smell....

Supposedly, he was caught doing the cutting with a coke covered credit card, so that is why he got slammed the most I guess.

The Jags must have expected something like this would happen since they acquired Jerry Porter and Troy Williamson in the offseason.

At least now we know how a white boy could run a 4.3 at the combine.

I think they just watched tape and finally realized that, for a QB, Sooie was a pretty sorry receiver.

This is apparently Jones' MySpace page according to a poster on FootballGuys.com:

You know, people give the Lions crap for all the WRs they have collected in recent years, but outside of Mike Williams, they at least had a guy with talent before injury with Charles Rogers, then a pretty good starter in Roy Williams, and a potential star in Calvin Johnson.

And what have the Jags done with their WRs since 2000 that's been so much better?
2000 R. Jay Soward (29th overall) - bust
2004 Reggie Williams (9th overall) - bust (at least relative to draft position)
2005 Matt Jones (21st overall) - bust

Then they go out and pick up another first round bust in Troy Williamson and the potential-failing Jerry Porter (a 2nd round pick).

The Lions are geniuses in comparison.
