Local law enforcement officers were invited to practice today, some of
them donning free MSU hats that they received at the check-in table.
Many gathered around the team in its closing huddle. In the past couple
of seasons, officers have been invited to practices in the fall and
spring, a move the school has said is to promote good relations between
the team and the local constabulary.

but I don't think its anythinghow it used to be, even 10 years ago. Cops don't let boysbe boys anymore, unless itsclose to the end oftheir shift.

I had a sure-fire DUI turned into a public drunk/$200 fine/night in the cell.... solely becuase I knew the cop and he knew that I wasnt a big trouble-maker, most of the time.</div></div>

proverbial night in the cell is pretty well the only thing that scares me about a DUI (and it scares me very very badly), I'm not sure your deal would have helped me any.

And most reputable companies won't hire you if you have one on record...<div>
</div><div>So sleeping in isolated jail cell for one evening was well worth avoiding the DUI in my opinion.... both immediately and long-term financially.</div>

I have $850.

I have a job (see $850 comment above.)

I don't have ANY assurance (and neither do you), that said stay will be in an isolated cell.

I would be worried for you if you got a DUI. Just trying to figure out where you would get a job.

Most oilfield companies will fire you if you get a DUI while being employed there. I know the one I work for does and will (seen it happen). I also know that my company does background checks and strongly frowns upon hiring anyone witha DUI.

When I spent a night in jail, I was in my own cell (might not be how it always works - I'm not too familiar with prisons).

that is currently working where I do. That said, she got it while she was employed where I work, so I don't know how much of a difference that makes vs being hired. I also strongly suspect that Vick Carmody was involved somehow, and I'm sure that may have made a difference of said DUI being on or off of her record.

pretty sure the cops in this area would not help out a player anymore then they would a random guy. I get pulled over at least twice a month leaving work at 2am just hoping they can get a dui. My favorite is when they tell me my tail light was blinking or they say we cross over the lines. When university drive has the the strangest striping pattern on any road I have ever seen. Seems the cops i have met in starkville would get a kick out of arresting a football player.
