It's a huge club that normally has live music every night. It's part of Newport on the Levy. A very nice establishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_Bengals_Fan Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I noticed that it said Newport(KY)- for those of you that dont know ,Newport is know for its "strip joints", I am not saying thats where he was or what he was doing just wondering.???Your information is about 25 years out of date. Once Northern Kentucky got its act together and redeveloped the waterfront - thanks to the inability of Cincinnati and Hamilton County to actually work together - all those sorts of establishments got pushed out, many of them north of the river.Seems Newport is the 'good' side now.

TJJackson Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Too bad, I had high hopes for Purify to stay clean and make the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I've loved him ever since he stoned Roy Williams in the Oklahoma drill. But with his status as a barely contributing, borderline practice squad guy, I'm not sure he'll survive this brush with the law. Marvin won't find it too funny.

jjakq27 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Too much new blood brought in over the last two weeks at WR for him to last long. Maybe him and Jerome can share a cab ride to the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 He was dogged by these kinds of issues at Nebraska, he wasn't likely to make the team anyway, it's time to say buh-bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalByTheBay Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Stupid, stupid, stupid. He's making it easy for the team to dump him and I expect them to do so shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Stupid, stupid, stupid. He's making it easy for the team to dump him and I expect them to do so shortly. Again, the Bengals go eleventy deep at WR now. So, drunk or sober, Maurice Purify wasn't making this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and Mr. Simpson had an opportunity last year after Chris Henry died but neither did anything with that chance. In fact I think the two of them dressed for a couple of games at most. It's been nice but now we have to say so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwalling Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 buh-bye. Too much other talent at WR without the baggage. Not sure this incident makes any difference. He wasn't going to make the cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
