It happens every day in every city Epic whataboutism. So, because it happens everyday that means this particular instance isn't a story? One thing is for certain: a high-paid CFL player was charged with a DUI in Regina on the 11th. Spare us the childish deflection.
October 17, 20186 yr comment_362480 FTR: He wasn't driving, he was sleeping behind the wheel on the side of the road with the vehicle running. Same charge as if he was actually driving.

Do you actually think he will get suspended from team or anything like that? That won't happen. Its a stupid thing for him to do, no one is defending it. People don't lose their jobs because they got a DUI unless their job is driving related

October 17, 20186 yr comment_362490 certainly happens everywhere all the time...doesn't make it acceptable or right...and everyone who is dumb enough to do it now still in my eyes is a P.O.S regardless if it's joe nobody or most famous person walking this earth....the fact he was gassed that bad prior to a big game itself just reeks of how much the team lacks leadership and character guys..noting wrong with drinks and some fun, but generally before a game you tend to back off a bit as it will effect you days after from peak performance...

People don't lose their jobs because they got a DUI unless their job is driving related I would probably lose my job with a dui, and I don't drive. We have a code of conduct we have to sign every year. No, I don't think he'll be suspended, although I think the CFL should have a policy on it. Hughes could probably use the rest anyways. The old man is slowing down with only two sacks since Labour Day.

All charges in the Criminal Code are, by definition, criminal offences. Those are broken down into lesser - Summary and greater - Indictable. This is a hybrid charge in that the crown has the option of proceeding either summarily or by indictment.

It happens every day rarely in every any city Pro Athletes should be held to a higher standard. Saying that, I don't think it should be a much bigger issue than a civilian(?) DUI - if it his first offense, just be smart and responsible from here on out. Edited October 17, 20186 yr by wanna-b-fanboy

October 17, 20186 yr comment_362517 Completely blotto - what 36 hours before a game...? That's a tough one to explain to Jones.

Besides, he didn't kill or injure himself or anyone else is beyond fortunate. But the fact he actually used terrible judgement to get into his car & drive in that condition as well as refuse a breathylizer sure makes it a non story in Riderville. Okay. he should be thanking his lucky stars that his stupidity didn't cost a life.

October 17, 20186 yr comment_362545 Police were responding to a call about somebody driving erratically on both sides of the road. They then find him passed out from booze in a running vehicle? Football player, politician, or just a joe......doesn't matter - sheer criminal stupidity.

AND that's the gist of it isn't....If you hold pubic office or you have a profile that is considered larger than the average layman you are held and judged to a higher degree.. Hughes has profile in a community and is supposed to set an example...he failed...The law will consider this and in most cases will come down harder on a person like Hughes...These guys in riderville, who are trying to pass this off as a 'oh so what', are going to be in for a rude awakening...The courts AND the court of public opinion can and most likely will be harsher in Hughes case...The team will have no choice but to follow suit...Things to consider before you get behind the wheel of a car, and by your intoxication turn it into a weapon ...Giant fail by Hughes
