Phillips one-third of an NFL trifecta

By Frank Girardot on October 7, 2008 11:48 AM | | Comments (0) |
Former Baldwin Park High School standout Lawrence Phillips recently received a 10-year prison sentence for an assault he committed after a pick-up football game in Los Angeles. The National Ledger's Cathy Beers says Phillips along with Michael Vick and O.J. Simpson is part of a trifecta of criminal NFL players doing time.
She also points out that in these tough financial times Mike Vick is $18 million in debt.
Here's her story (and a excerpt):
How many former NFL players can you shove into a jail cell?  Or better yet a prison cell.  Former NFL quarterback Michael Vick is locked away in jail and things have gotten so bad for Vick that he now wants bankruptcy protection form creditors.  O.J. Simpson is back in jail, this time in Las Vegas.  Also leading the charge to jail for the National Football League trifecta is Lawrence Phillips.
