07:30 AM ET 07.02 | Titans quarterback Chris Simms was busted early this morning in the West Village driving high on marijuana with his 8-months pregnant wife in the passenger seat. "I was smoking marijuana in the car earlier," Simms told cops, prosecutor Lauren Perry said. "My client never admitted to smoking marijuana that night. He said he was smoking cigarettes that night," said Simms' attorney, Nathan Semmel, who revealed that two other unnamed passengers were in the car at some point during the evening. "The DA should investigate whether those two individuals were responsible for the marijuana odor."

Meanwhile, 21 die in border dispute in Arizona. Yeah, we've got to stop this crime wave in NYC with these backup QBs. Take his clipboard. No more headsets. Put down the gatorade cup, Mr. Sims.

You use the word "career" like he actually had one.

Sorry you are correct. He still gets paid to hold a clipboard. I could do that at half the price.

Even if he wasn't smoking the pot, why would you allow 2 other people in your car with your 8 months pregnant wife in the car? Idiot.

Doesn't he know - cigarettes will kill him?

Somewhere, Major Applewhite is smiling and wondering how Phil is going to get his son out of this one.

oh snap!

Yeah...right. Another case of someone not willing to admit they screwed up and are working on correcting the mistake.

Who were the two friends? Cheech and Chong? Harold and Kumar?

Supposedly, Simms had a flushed face, was slurring his speech, and reeked of pot smoke.

I'm sure his attorney has an explanation for that, too.

I've got his Defense all mapped out...

He should get on the stand and start crying. Talk about growing up in his Dad's shadow and the only relief for not being nearly as good as his old man was... A visit with Mary Jane :-)

I should have been a Lawyer.

Maybe he could call up Ricky Williams and get some advice, longhorn fup to longhorn fup.
