JaMarcus Russell arrested for controlled substance

JaNourmos Russell, a damn shame! He can clearly say goodbye to a second change at least for the 2010 season. Best move the Raiders did this offseason was releasing this fool

Just don't wash 'em down with bars (xanax).

Keep in mind that Deaf people generally sit, stand, chat directly facing each other so we can communicate easier. Anyway, when I was living in my 300 sq foot room at Cougar Place, a buddy of mine came over with some bars on him. We popped a couple after downing some cough syrup and just relaxed for a few hours chatting away.

Clear as day, I felt myself urinating into my pants while chatting in my chair. I popped up and said... holy ****! I just pissed my pants! I immediately flung my pants and boxers off then sit right back down as if nothing happened and resumed chatting. My friend was in sheer horror screaming at me what in the hell was I doing. I was like nothing man. What's the big deal? YOU'RE NAKED YOU'RE NAKED! Oh yeah. My bad.

Only time I ever tried bars. Never again.
 
A Sting operation!

Ex-Oakland Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell arrested in undercover sting


1 Recommend A bad offseason got worse for JaMarcus Russell on Monday when the former Oakland Raiders QB was arrested and alleged to have possessed a controlled substance.

Police in Mobile County, Alabama, alleged that Russell was in possession of codeine, a prescription painkiller. Sheriff's spokesperson Lori Myles told the AP that Russell was arrested as part of an undercover investigation.

The arrest comes two months after the Raiders cut Russell, whom they had selected with the first overall selection in the 2007 draft.

Russell was released after posting $2,500 bail. He is due in court on July 20.

Russell hasn't yet made a comment about the arrest.

Myles said Russell was arrested at his home early this afternoon during an undercover investigation. Police did not find a prescription for the drug during their search, Myles said.

Other people were at the residence, but Russell was the only one arrested, according to Myles.

It was a joke type of article that appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle back in March. But now the piece appears to be just plain prophetic of recent revelations.

This is a story that's got legs. In fact, the story is moving quicker than the guy it's about.

Gary Peterson, in his Bay Area News Group column Sunday, wrote that Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell was "rumored to have spent part of the offseason at a clinic being treated for lethargy addiction ...."

That joke refers to Russell's notorious work-lite ethic, and to reports that he has been in Arizona at an athletic training program. I, too, have written lines that were so cute that readers missed the joke. Peterson's jest was taken literally by one Bay Area TV sportscaster, who reported Russell's "treatment" as news.

So it's been in print and on TV - JaMarcus is in lethargy rehab. From the e-chat at various Raiders' fan sites, it's clear that for many, the jest has morphed into fact.

Russell did go to Arizona, although if he actually enrolled in a shape-up program, it's news to Raiders' execs.

The interesting thing is not that a columnist's jest was misconstrued, or that a TV reporter misconstrued it. What's fascinating is that Russell's body of, uh, work in three NFL seasons makes the jokey report totally believable.

Russell has become the poster dude for lethargy, a condition waiting to be clinically approved.

Soon doctors will explain that lethargy isn't a character fault, it's a disease. If a golfer can be addicted to sex, why can't a quarterback be addicted to sloth? At least Russell is a recovering non-workaholic.

By the way, on YouTube I saw a clip, "JaMarcus spins twice & slings it 53." Russell, then quarterbacking LSU, and a good 50 pounds lighter than the Russell of today, makes a dazzlingly nimble escape from a pass rush and completes a bomb. If only he could move like that now ...

I need to cover myself here. Maybe Russell really did check into the Lazy Star Dude Ranch & Lethargy Clinic in Phoenix. If so, I wish him luck making it to the meetings.

Nice Find! The purple drank would explain his lethargy.

must spread rep.

Oh man, I can just imagine how bad the Raiders would have got it if we held on to Russell and he was caught with this "sizzurp".

Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, and extreme drowsiness.

Well, that explains why Russell went downhill fast. Still all his fault though.

From the appearance of the above "menu," Russell seems to have much more to worry about than what team he is going to play for.:panic:
 
Thanks Doc, yeah he has much bigger worries. But, I bet he gets off with probation.
Unless they tie him to a distribution ring.

Remember, it was referred to as a "sting." He must have been the "target" since others were in the house, and they were not arrested. It is unlikely that they planned a sting, anticipating one half-empty bottle in the bathroom cabinet. In fact this could very easily end up both a state and federal offense before it's all over.

Yeah, I had forgot about that.

Another thing........the "3 miles from a school" stipulation. Do you realize how likely something like that may be..........3 miles in every direction?. Mobile has 72 schools in 159 square mile area (the city of Houston is 600 square miles). If he didn't already, I think that Russell has more of a future with a Bubba than a Barbara.

Is the 3 mile rule in effect in every state?
 
New York Daily News already reporting:

The Jets recently made an exploratory call to Russell’s agent after the former No. 1 overall pick was released by the Raiders. However, a league source told me last week that the chances of Russell signing with the Jets were less than 10 percent.

Not surprisingly, the Jets are no longer interested in the career underachiever, according to a source.

Nitro glad you learned your lesson. I've done stupid stuff but was not JaMarcus stupid.

Too think somebody invested millions on this fool. The Raiders need to fire the firm that did the background check on this fool.

:worthless:

^^^^^^^^^^

Is there a smiley for the exact opposite of this?
 
As far back as April, Raiders fans were coining the name JaRobitussin, suspecting Russell was swigging on large quantities of the "cough syrup" made up of only Robitussin.

jamarcus-russell-raiders-383c0e16e0.jpg




Next came up the cough syrup Phensedyl (codeine, promethazine, ephedrine)........close, but included ephedrine [which has not been reported to date])

About the same time, new player profiles were appearing.

It would not be way out to be thinking that Al Davis may have had a hand in this "sting." It could give the Raiders reason to not pay Russell what he still may be owed by the organization.



And for those feeling that his livelihood may be entirely destroyed. Russell still has good options.

And, should he end up in prison, he will always have that die-hard Raiders fan/pen pal to help him pass the time.

Okay opinion time: who had the more hilarious flame-out of a career? Ryan Leaf or JaMarcus Russel?
 
A man can't sip on some lean in his own household! America's drug laws need to be changed....BUT JaMarcus should be finding a team to play for.
 
"One mo' ounce 'll make me feel so great...Wait, now I can't feel my face...Up in the studio me and my drank, me and my drank...me and my drank"
 
Perhaps JaMarcus isn't as lazy as some of us think he is - he has apparently changed his name to Moe and converted his latest bout of adversity into an endorsement.
