Breaking Bengals News

LOCAL 12 HAS DETAILS IN A STORY WE FIRST BROKE THIS MORNING: LINEBACKER ODELL THURMAN IS FACING NEW CHARGES.

CINCINNATI POLICE SAY THEY TOOK THURMAN INTO CUSTODY DURING A D-U-I CHECKPOINT OVERNIGHT IN THE EAST END.

LOCAL 12 HAS EXCLUSIVE VIDEO OF THURMAN AT THE ARREST SCENE.

THURMAN IS ALREADY SERVING A FOUR GAME SUSPENSION FOR VIOLATING THE LEAGUE'S SUBSTANCE ABUSE POLICY.

HE WAS REPORTEDLY DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH SEVERAL OTHER BENGALS INSIDE.

STAY TUNED TO YOUR LOCAL NEWS FOR THE LATEST DETAILS.

One bengal (who will remain nameless) threw up on the car when police pulled over the crew.

Yeah, we have video of the puke.

I'm happy to celebrate a major win by my Morning Show crew...

The Ohio Correctional Football League is going to have a great season this year. The recent roster additions have really upgraded the talent. Is it true there will be another remake of the Longest Yard with real football players?

There is a reason the Bengals play in stripes. But after that victory over Pittsburgh, you can understand why they'd be celebrating.

t2- Yeah. They're a bunch of thugs. But as a friend of mine just said, "I don't care if they killed a guy. We need to keep them on the team."

That's pretty much how a lot of people think in WhoDeyworld.

Holy crap, can it get any worse for the Bengals PR people? Yeah, a lot of the younger players are true thugs but I agree, they play well so we need them!!! I heard one of the players in the car was Chris Henry. Maybe he was drinking away the pain from that head collision yesterday afternoon.

I am curious as to who the unnamed bengal was too. They are out of control, but they are young, and newly rich, and obviously not thinking clearly. But they are good and I wouldn't want to loose to the patriots this coming week ;).

J- his name is mentioned in the comment previous to yours...

SPYDRZ- HERE'S YOUR UPDATE FROM LOCAL 12: THE FLORIDA STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE IS TRYING TO DETERMINE IF BENGALS RECEIVER CHRIS HENRY VIOLATED HIS PROBATION.

HE WAS IN THE CAR MONDAY MORNING WHEN TEAMMATE ODELL THURMAN WAS ARRESTED FOR DRUNK DRIVING.

HENRY WAS PLACED ON PROBATION AFTER HE PLEADED GUILTY TO PULLING A GUN DURING A FIGHT IN JANUARY.

UNDER HIS PLEA AGREEMENT, HENRY IS NOT ALLOWED TO DRINK ALCOHOL.

THURMAN TOLD POLICE TUESDAY... HE WAS DRIVING BECAUSE HIS PASSENGERS HAD MORE TO DRINK THAN HE DID.

HENRY, AND THE OTHER PASSENGER, REGGIE MCNEAL FACE NO LOCAL CHARGES.

I've heard that local law enforcement authorities are trying to make the Bengals feel more at home by adding black stripes to the orange prisoner jumpsuits.
