By Seattle Times news services


CLEVELAND — Cleveland Browns nose tackle Shaun Rogers was arrested Thursday at Hopkins International Airport for having a loaded gun in his carry-on luggage.

Rogers, who had been at the team's suburban training facility in recent days taking part in a voluntary offseason program, was stopped at a security checkpoint when officials spotted a loaded .45-caliber hand gun in his bag, police said in a statement.

He was arrested at 12:15 p.m. "without incident," transferred to a downtown processing center and booked for carrying a concealed weapon, a third-degree felony.

Rogers spent much of the day in the Cleveland city jail but was released in the evening, according to a jail spokesman.

WOIO-TV reported Rogers told officers he forgot the gun was in the bag.

Even if he avoids charges, Rogers, arguably the Browns' best player, could face suspension for violation of the NFL's personal-conduct policy.

Assuming that he in fact brought a gun into the terminal, AND attempted to bring it onto an aircraft, what exactly made him think he'd get away with it?

TSA is worthless, but not QUITE that worthless.
Arrogance?
Steroids?
A sub-100 IQ?

I need to get me one of those flunky jobs. I'll just write myself one big cashier's check from his account and buy myself a village in the mountains of Guatemala.
