This is just patently false. What an awful cliche.

“I think ‘The Diesel’ is the guy that got me in trouble,” Collins said. “The Diesel ran in clubs, ran with the wrong people. The Diesel didn’t know how to handle all the money or celebrity coming in.”


Sounds awfully familiar

God must spend a lot of time in prisons. Everyone seems to find him there.

"The Diesel" had issues long befor Miami or LSU. The guy needed a full time baby sitter in high school just to get him to LSU's campus.

I think it's sweet that Cecil holds no grudges against the women who objected to him breaking into their homes and jerking off while he loomed over their sleeping bodies.

Crazy chicks... there's just no figuring them out.

God says that people in prison have more time to chat.

We shoud never ever give our players good nicknames.

It's a bad omen.

How lucky Cecil is to have someone like you to judge him, his thoughts, feelings and hopes.

Maybe his words are honest, heartfelt, and born of experience, self-reflection and his spiritual condition.

Stay Close-minded my friend

That is pretty romantic, that he snaked her from a fellow con.

I wonder if his babysitter was in the stands the night he went for about half a thousand against DeRidder.

The Diesel was not the problem. That's BS.

I worked near Leesville when LSU signed this guy. All the locals that followed high school football were telling me that, "the kid is good, but he will never stay out of trouble".

Still, the 15-year sentence seems rather harsh, considering that no one was injured in the break-in that Collins committed.(Collins got a sentence more than 200 times as long as the 24-day sentence another NFL player, Donte Stallworth, served for driving drunk and killing someone in Florida.)


the justice department hates LSU
