Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was ticketed for traffic violations in Oregon yesterday afternoon. It was reported by The Oregonian and picked up by Pro Football Talk.
The interesting thing about this incident is that pundits – whether fan or media – will see what they want to see in this report. It’s either a disturbing pattern of behavior or baseless grasping at straws to perpetuate the “dirty” label.
At least one teammate (and I would assume many more) wasn’t impressed with the newsworthiness of this incident:

Zac Snyder got hooked on the Lions after his dad took him to a Monday Night Football game against the Los Angeles Raiders in 1990. The show put on by Barry Sanders and Bo Jackson that night was only surpassed by what Zac could do with Barry in a game of Tecmo Super Bowl.
