Is Shaun Ellis the mentor for Leroy Hill?

Seattle Seahawks LB Leroy Hill, who's about to become an unrestricted free agent, learned from teammate Lofa Tatupu and took his cue from Jets DE Shaun Ellis.

With drinking and driving being such a huge problem in the NFL, Ellis decided to not drink and drive last month. Instead, he smoked some weed and drove.

Hill was busted early Saturday morning for possession of marijuana. Since driving under the influence is dangerous, Hill decided to pass out behind the steering wheel instead.

Moron.
"He was at an intersection passed out behind the wheel," Taylor said. "The deputies conducted an investigation and found two bags of marijuana in the car."
Hill, who was the Seahawks 3rd-round choice in 2005, was third on the team in tackles (84).

I still don't understand how professional athletes can drive under the influence. Rent a stretch Escalade or something. They can obviously afford it with their multi-million dollar salaries.

Why jeopardize your career and, more importantly, your life and others' lives?
