Bears cut Tank Johnson
 
CHICAGO (AP) -- Tank Johnson tried the patience of the Chicago Bears numerous times. Still, they provided support, visited him in jail and gave him more than enough chances to turn his life around and advance his career.

But after his latest run-in with the law in Arizona, the Bears had seen enough and it was time to let him go.

The Bears, saying they were "embarrassed" and that Johnson had "compromised the credibility" of the team with his latest incident, released the defensive tackle Monday.

In your opinion, with all that has happened with Tank Johnson over the past year, were they right in cutting him even thought he got a speeding ticket?

Absolutely

........and they could have charged him with a DUI if they wanted. If I was in his situation, the last thing I would have been doing was partying and driving my car around at 3 a.m.

I so agree...one of my friends thought thta this was excessive...but hey....he has been in jail, charged with numerous misdemeanors within a year....on probation AND suspended from the NFL...part of his suspension was that he can't get into anymore legal trouble....so......guess what.

speeding @ 3am + pulled over by cops = you should have used common sense

The Bears are completely justified in waiving Johnson. If anything, they probably should have cut him last year.
