Today's Topics: Player arrests, Theo stalker

Player arrests in full force

There's a popular saying that things run in 3s. But when it comes to athletes/celebs being arrested, it seems more like they run in three sets of 3 x 3.

Joining the recently charged DUI/DWI stars, Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch was arrested for allegedly driving under the influence in Oakland. That, on the same weekend of Jason Kidd’s wild night in the Hamptons.

Lynch is a running back who apparently loves to reverse field

His DUI arrest came two days after he and 49ers QB Josh Johnson awarded a scholarship to an Oakland gunshot victim.

But back in 2011, Alameda County (Calif.) prosecutors declined to file charges against Lynch after his former girlfriend alleged he tried to kill her and forced her to touch him sexually.

Other stars arrested during the past weekend included Broncos DE Elvis Dumervil for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and Cowboys WR Dez Bryant on a misdemeanor domestic charge.

I'd just like to say, "Thanks, guys. You made this a good week in which to start a blog."

Theo stalker arrested

First Yankee General Manager Brian Cashman, now Cubs GM Theo Epstein. And we thought these guys wouldn't be tied together after Theo bolted the Red Sox.

A Massachusetts woman was arrested and charged with felony stalking of Epstein after telling police she was inviting the Cub stud to "go to church."

Theo, she sounds like a keeper.

Cashman, you might recall, apparently was a bit of a player himself. One of his former mistresses was arrested for extorting money from the Yanks GM. She was released from jail recently.
