Title: Douchebag says what ?
Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 22, 2006, 10:35:58 am
POMPANO BEACH, Fla. -- The brother of Pittsburgh Steelers safety Tyrone Carter had his sentence for driving with a revoked license increased from six months to five years because he failed to report to jail on time.

Tank Carter was scheduled to report to a Broward County prison on Jan. 6, but decided against it when his brother told him the Steelers had a good chance of going to the Super Bowl. On Tuesday, Broward Circuit Judge Stanton S. Kaplan increased the sentence.

"Even knowing what I know now, I would do it again," Carter said. "It was the greatest game in my life."

Carter watched the Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks from the 50-yard line in Detroit and partied with rapper Snoop Dogg after the game.


The brothers have been close since growing up in a rough section of Pompano Beach.

"I would have done the same thing," Tyrone Carter said of his brother's decision. Winning the Super Bowl meant "we finally made it together."

As someone who lives in Pompano, I have to ask...what rough section? This is pompano...not the ghetto.

There is a ghetto in Pompano.... like two blocks long.  My friend Jermaine is from there.

My point was that there really is not any neighborhood in Pompano that would be considered a "rough section" like one could consider certain neighborhoods in LA, NY, Chicago, etc... There isn't any section that I, as an overweight middle-aged white boy, would worry about walking through at night.

Five years for driving with a revoked license just because he turned himself in late???  His attorney's gonna have a field day getting this sentence reduced in an appeals court.
