The Denver Post is reporting that Nuggets’ forward Carmelo Anthony was “pulled over Sunday night on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol.” He submitted to a blood test. The results won’t be known for two weeks.
(Sigh.)
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: HIRE A DRIVER!
Carmelo, you have made $28 million in five years and you are due to make another $66 million over the next four. Certainly, you have the cash flow to fork out $100K a year to a friend (or a stranger) to be your driver, right? He could drive you to the club, McDonald’s, wherever you want to go. That way, you won’t get pulled over for a DUI. Now your rep is tarnished and you’ll no doubt lose potential endorsement deals, however minor.
Not smart, ‘Melo. Not smart.
