RUSHHEAD666 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Today is another sad day gang. I couldn't believe the news today that Henry Ruggs III was out with his girlfriend driving his Corvette at 3:40 am with alcohol in his bloodstream.Slamming into the back of a woman's RAV4 killing her and her dog. I feel so bad for the victims and the family.Ruggs should get 2 to 20 years in prison under the laws of Nevada. This is a terrible tragedy. Any thoughts? I am a diehard Raider fan. I loved Ruggs III. I have his jersey. He is on my fantasy team. He was doing good this year. 22 years young and an idiot.Why not take Uber?All NFL teams give their players access to free limos.I don't understand this.I know the frontal cortex of the human brain isn't fully developed until the age of 25, but come on. Common sense please. I just can't believe this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I am honestly surprised that these kids don't have full-time paid body guards...to protect them from themselves. Tragic. Senseless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 Raiders gave him the boot. Such a waste of a career. Yes, they just released him. The whole thing is tragic. I can't believe there are still Henry Ruggs shirts and hoodies on eBay that says "Speed Kills" on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BastillePark Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Pretty sad. This and the Baldwin thing will make for interesting court drama in the coming months except this one will turn out worse since he was drunk and Alec was strictly an accident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) It's so sad. I guess Ruggs is too young to have heard of, or remember Gabriel Rivera. He was a defensive lineman for the Steelers in the 80s that decided to go celebrate one night , drove drunk, hit another car head on and ended up in a wheelchair the rest of his life. It happened not very far from my parents' house so I remember it. Rivera had most of the damage done to himself and lived to think about it for a lot of years. Looks like Ruggs will have time to think about this for a lot of years as well. When you're young you think you're bulletproof but you should really try not to drink and drive. When I was in elementary school, my mom's best friend was killed in a drunk driving accident (friend was not the driver.) This was in the late 1960's and it caused changes in that family that they are still dealing with all these years later. :( Edited November 3, 2021 by blueschica 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 This and the Gruden thing is a big blow for the Raiders. Big Blow Pat. Always a dark cloud over Raider Nation.

Drinking and driving is one of the stupidest things you can ever do on the Earth. Yet humans still do it every day.Even with the invention of Uber and Lyft. People are still foolish to get behind the wheel after drinking.I think Ruggs has a one year old. Taking his girl out on the town for some Top Golf.Guess they got drinks there.Why the F would he not just leave his Vette there and Uber home. Why not call the limo that that Raiders have for him for free?I know he's an adult at 22 but come on. Like I said, the frontal cortex of the brain isn't fully developed until at least 25. Where the heck is someone to at least make sure he doesn't hurt himself or others under contract with the Las Vegas Raiders. I knew when the fukking Raiders were going to relocate to Sin City horrific events like this were going to happen. The Oakland A's are going to move there next. Ugh! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with all of this negativity going on. I had Carr as my back up in Fantasy. I have Josh Allen.But someone dropped Russell Wilson onto the waiver because of his finger. I picked him up and dropped Carr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 With the availability of ride shares and relative inexpensive cost, there is zero reason for driving under the influence. Fukking ZERO!My sympathies to the victim's family and friends. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 ESPN says he was driving 156 MPH? What the hell? Cops say it was a Corvette. Add intoxicated to that and that makes for a bad combo. This tragedy is getting worse each day. Not only was Ruggs speeding at 156 on a city side street with his girlfriend, he rammed into that RAV4 at 127 MPH. His toxicity level was double the legal amount at 1.61. Also they found a loaded unregistered firearm in the Corvette. The prosecution team could put Ruggs away for a maximum of 46 years now with these extra charges. His bail is at 15000. He is on lockdown in his residence. The prosecutor wanted the bail at one million dollars. They did take away his passport. The judge had stated that in his entire career he has never had a case where a car could do that fast.Of course he is entitled to a fair trial, but this kid should go to prison for a very long time. Sad that he and his girlfriend have a 3 year old little girl together.Worse is the poor victims in that RAV4. A 23 year old woman and her dog. Horrific. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
