Bengalbob Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 http://frontier.cincinnati.com/blogs/bengals/Steinbach charged with boating DUI on Ohio RiverGEORGETOWN, Ky. -- Bengals left guard Eric Steinbach was arrested Saturday night and charged with a operating a boat under the influence of alcohol on the Ohio River. He was arrested by an officer with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. Steinbach was stopped for speeding by the officer in the idle-only speed zone between the Interstate 75 and Interstate 471 bridges, Mark Marraccini, spokesman for the agency, said tonight. The officer ran Steinbach through a series of field sobriety tests, which he failed, Marraccini said. At that point, Steinbach was arrested and taken to the Campbell County Jail. He refused a breath test. The Bengals do not comment on ongoing legal issues involving their players. Steinbach practiced Monday night.-- Mark Curnutte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoTbOy Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Maybe ESteinbach is pissed about not getting contract extension, or maybe he was just relaxing on his boat catching fish and having a cold one who knows, with all the adversity that this team is going through now we must be destined to win the SB ...

sparky151 Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I don't think this is a big deal. He wasn't endangering other people and half of the articles listed are just a recitation of other Bengals incidents. This is a smaller issue than Smith or Bratkowski's DUIs.

Ox Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Let the man fish and have a cold one. I don't blame the guy for wanting to relax. It's not like he was giving beer to underage girls on his boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schweinhart Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I doubt this one sits too well with the organization. It's halfway through training camp and there's old Einsteiny out goofing up on the water. You'd think he might have a little more sense than put himself in the position at this time in the year.They probably will hand down some punishment to him. Probably just go through the motions and not start him for some game to be determined later in the season.But what could be worse punishment for him than Whitworth going in as the starting LG for the 1st preseason game and indeed beating him out for the season, which would hit Einsteiny square in the wallet big time. That 6-pack could cost him a couple $million come free agency if Whitworth does get that chance and shows he's smart enough and quick enough because he's definitely much stronger than Steinbach.

YOu expect him to step in for the first pre-season game at a new position and beat out a PROBOWLER?Wait a second, weren't you one of the guys pissed about the pick bcause he wasn't good enough?

GROIIIDayton Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 WTF you would think some of these cops would realize who these guys are and not charge them. I wonder if cops for pissburgh are trying to get jobs in cincinnati I mean this is getting out of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalboomer7 Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 When it rains, it pours. This would've barely made a ripple a year ago.But refusing the breath test was dumb.Actually, no it wasn't. It gives his lawyer more to work with getting Steiny off the hook.I grew up right on the river, boated and drank a million times and never been caught. I've had buddies let off a thousand times for this. I might get battered because of the Henry thread, but this is horses**t. I think these guys saw a pro football player, and wanted to arrest a "famous person" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, only because the Cuyahoga River runs north thru Cleveland to Lake Erie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
