F@&K Character


Alex Boone sure looks comfortable

Alex Boone sure looks comfortable

John Crumpacker of the Chronicle has a nice article talking about some of the players the 49ers took a flyer on who have some character issues/baggage. I for one have to say it is about damn time the team started looking at the players ability instead of if they are Boy Scouts or not.

Remember how well the whole Boy Scout mantra worked out for Nolan. I’d take Boone and his tazering over Kwame ‘The Human Penalty’ Harris anyday.

The biggest issue concerns the biggest player on the roster, Boone, who’s a 6-foot-7, 328-pounder. He was arrested for driving under the influence in 2006 and on Feb. 2 of this year, he was arrested for public intoxication in Orange County and had to be subdued by Taser – twice. He had been jumping on car hoods, pounding on garage doors and was combative and uncooperative when police arrived.
