Former Steeler Bell Arrested

In the HOF city no less!... Shame!

Former Pittsburgh Steelers star running back Le'Veon Bell was arrested over the weekend in Canton, Ohio.

He still was being held Monday in the Stark County jail on a warrant out of Michigan over child support payments, according to multiple reports.

Bell's attorney, Thomas Shaffer of Uniontown, Pa., told the Canton Repository that his client is "inaccurately" being charged based on the salary he received as an NFL player.

"Six months ago he cashed in an NFL pension to pay $50,000 in child support for that child. His guidelines are still inaccurately being deemed based on his NFL salary and his professional boxing career," Shaffer said. "This is a revolving door because he pays a number that doesn't reflect his true income. The issue will never end. The court needs to reflect his true income."

Bell, 34, was arrested Saturday after an autograph-signing appearance at a mall in Jackson Township, Ohio.

A second-round draft pick by the Steelers out of Michigan State in 2013, Bell played five seasons with the Steelers before sitting out the 2018 season in a contract dispute. He continued his career with the New York Jets (2019-20), Kansas City Chiefs (2020), Baltimore Ravens (2021) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2021).

Bell made three Pro Bowls, earned two All-Pro first-team selections and produced three 1,000-yard seasons with the Steelers.

He retired with 9,843 yards from scrimmage (6,554 rushing and 3,289 receiving) and 51 touchdowns in 96 career games (81 starts).

After football, Bell went 2-1 as a professional boxer from 2022-24.

 

I find it interesting that Bell's attorney is spouting excuses all pointing to the fact that he needs a better attorney

 

Bell forgot to use a trojan

 

Good thing he smoked weed with LeGarrett Blount...

 

Exactly who wants his autograph

 

All this is because he listened to people, fans, and others who over inflated his importance on the Steelers, and in football. No matter how good you think you are, there are 1000s of players a year that will be happy to take what you think is unfair, and not paid enough for your position, and do so gladly .

 

He really needed an advisor/friend with a level head. And he should have kept it in his pants. Not sure of this but I think he has 6-7 women he has to help with support.

The mind is a terrible thing to waste.

 

THANKS TOMLIN

FSP: “Would you like my autograph?

Me: “Only if it’s on a check.”
