As found by the ubiquitous MDS (the hardest working man in blog business – read 10 of his articles today and get a free oil change done by MDS himself) at Pro Football Talk, Cedric Benson was arrested last night on a Texas lake by the Texas Park and Wildlife and Lower Colorado River Association. (Yes, they have officers of the law. Yes, we suspect we’d rather take a beating from a parking violations cop.)

Benson was arrested for drinking and driving a boat, showing creativity previously unknown for the young man. He also was charged for resisting arrest. We suspect he tried to get away, but he could only make it a few yards before being pulled in. And to this point, he’s only run like he was underwater. How things change in the offseason…
(Cedric Benson likes to drive boats everywhere)
Bears fans can only say, “Thank you, Cedric. Thanks for giving Jerry Angelo a cheap reason to not let you back into training camp and giving the job to the next poor sucker. Much appreciated.”
Cleveland Indians fans, though, would like to beat the snot out of you. Hopefully, your family will complete the honor for them.
