DBG Should Avoid Spfld MO
Coming home to Spfld isn't working out to well for Beckham.
https://www.news-leader.com/story/ne...ld/2374146002/ Police say former NFL wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham was arrested Wednesday night in Springfield after he was caught with a pound of marijuana. Green-Beckham, 25, was booked into the jail just after 3 a.m. Thursday. Springfield police spokeswoman Jasmine Bailey said the department's Special Response Team served a warrant Wednesday night at a home in the 600 block of East Grand Street. Bailey said Green-Beckham was in the home but fled when officers arrived, diving through a glass window. Officers eventually caught up to Green-Beckham and found about a pound of marijuana in his backpack, according to Bailey. Officers then searched the home and found an additional 7 pounds of marijuana, Bailey said. Bailey said Green-Beckham does not live at the home on Grand Street and was not the target of the search warrant. Police say another man was also arrested as part of the raid. It does not appear formal charges have been filed. Green-Beckham was the country's top high-school recruit coming out of Hillcrest High School in 2012 when he signed to play football at Mizzou. After a tumultuous two years in Columbia, which ended with Green-Beckham being kicked off the team, he entered the NFL Draft in 2015 where he was selected by the Tennessee Titans in the second round. Green-Beckham was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles and cut before the start of the 2017 season. He pleaded guilty earlier this year to driving while intoxicated for a December 2017 incident where he was driving drunk while trying to pick up a friend in Springfield. Green-Beckham was on probation in the DWI case at the time of Wednesday's arrest. Last edited by 11Chiefs; 12-21-2018 at 12:56 PM.. Reason: updated title :rolleyes: |

There comes a time when guys like this decide they would rather have the rush of the moment over the life of success. Maybe they have a low expectation for what success is.
How many chances should a guy like this get? I'd say he has had his fair share and messed them all up. |

He’s been hanging out and going to clubs in Springfield for over a year now. He gave up on his own career before teams even had to.

Guys who get by on talent alone do it until the opposing talent catches up to their level. For him it was the NFL.

Cases like this are fascinating and heartbreaking. He came from a terrible situation, but ended up getting placed in a far better one. His talent afforded him opportunities and exceptions that may have both helped and destroyed him. Nature vs. nurture, I guess.

600 block of East Grand is right by Missouri State campus. Must have been one hell of a house party.
