Kenton Keith has a bad sense of timing

Less than a week from the NFL Draft, where many people think the Colts will draft a RB with their first pick, Colts back-up RB Kenton Keith decided to get himself arrested outside a night club in the wee hours of the morning.

Ugh.

Seriously, I don't think there were a lot of Kenton Keith fans out there prior to this, and now there are even fewer. The stupidity of the whole thing is Keith didn't pull a Stephen Jackson (former Pacer) or anything. Cops told them to leave the parking lot, and like an idiot he started taunting them.

Again, ugh.

Now, is this on par with shooting people in a parking lot, dog fighting, or Pacman Jones? No, it isn't. Is it an unbelievably stupid move for a guy who is, essentially, fighting for his job come training camp this year? Yes. A thousand times, yes. I think it's time to punt K2 back up to Canada, because he was already on shaky ground prior to pissing off the cops. I'll leave it to JakeTheSnake to finalize this. From an email he sent me this morning:

In the interest of full disclosure, I thought everyone was overreacting with the take a running back in the second round movement, because I thought Kenton Keith still had room to grow and we had other areas that needed addressing.  Well, it looks like I was wrong.

 

Tip to KingRichard.

Well

He should have gotten arrested for dropping that pass against the Chargers. I did think that the Colts would draft a RB. Now if they don’t, it’s just plain stupid.

Not just arrested

The death penalty would be too good for dropping that pass v. SD.

Right now, the only thing that would limit the Colts in taking a RB at #59 is availability. If Johnson or Forte are available, I think one of them is the pick. K2’s adventure this past weekend only makes that look even more right. But I want to go on record (for the umpteenth time) as saying the first priority should still be a pass rusher.

On the bright side, no fight, no gunshot. The Pacers still lead the Colts in the local bad judgment sweepstakes.

The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in the stars, but in ourselves.

K2

If the man’s an idiot, his timing was perfect. If it was just a stupid thing, we all hope he grows from this. Either way, it can be a good thing

Racism?

AOL blogger suggests it may be involved in Keith’s arrest and expresses doubt the charges will stick.

I’m pretty sure he was just being a drunk moron. Cops do have something against them.

K2

K2 is a failure. Time to draft Forte or CJ!

Kenton just keeps on doing dumb things

I am in Saskatchewan where KK played until last year, and he just recently had charges stayed up here for almost exactly the same type of thing except my understanding is he actually had a scuffle (blows) with someone up here. He is a guy with talent but his ego is much bigger than his talent and his attitude is just like a cancer on a team according to a lot of my sources. I know ppl in the bar industry around town and he wasnt a guy they even wanted in their establishments as he seemed to rankle everyone.
The Colts would be wise geeting a look at another RB so they can get him outta there.
