Defensive lineman Darrion Scott, who spent the past four seasons with the Vikings and is currently a free agent, was arrested today in Eden Prairie for “probable cause felony assault,” according to press release issued by the Eden Prairie police department. He was arrested around 3:30 p.m. and a search warrant was being executed at his home. A spokeswoman for the Eden Prairie police department said no further information would be released today.
This isn’t Scott’s first trouble with the law. He was cited last December for misdemeanor marijuana possession and also ticketed for failure to signal after being pulled over by officers in Charleston, W.Va. He was cited and released at the scene.
Scott, a third-round pick by the Vikings in 2004 from Ohio State, led the team with 5.5 sacks in 2006 after starting 13 games. But last season a foot injury landed him on injured reserve in October. The Vikings appeared to have only mild interest in signing Scott to a new contract and he has been on the market since free agency began in late February. His only known visit was with the New England Patriots.
Any thought the Vikings had of bringing back Scott almost certainly disappeared when they worked a trade-and-sign with the Kansas City Chiefs for Pro Bowl end Jared Allen last week.
Well, at least he is a FA not a Viking.
Keep him around. Vikes quit being a team of choir boys a long, long, time ago. NFL football players are high strung, there is enough proof of that in this city. They don’t want to be role models.
They aren’t.
keeee-rect
agreed kenny. these guys are held to a higher standard specifically because of how much money they are being paid. it is unfair.
charles barkley said it best in his commercial a few years back. “i am not a role model. i am not paid to be a role model. i am paid to rebound, dunk and create havoc on the basketball court!” best commercial in years!!
good luck finding a team to pick you up now
maybe, c. henry, k. robinson, p. jones and now d. scott can all start up the XFL again
Thats Bull sh!t… Yea these guys make big bucks AND I am sure we all had our heroes growing up. I am also sure my idols got in trouble or maybe back in the day the law overlooked things because they were Vikings.
But in todays day and age the cops want to bust these high profile types… they are cocky arrogant asses who deserve what they get(the players). I was on the re-sign DScott band wagon BUT obviously this UNEMPLOYED retard doesn’t know what it takes to be anywhere near the kind of professional he needs to be to succed.
Now the rhodes scholar DScott has 2 arressests in less than 6 months… Have fun flipping burgers you freakin idiot…
Yes they are held to a higher standard…. even the lowest paid players make way better $$ than 90% of the population… for playing a game ….. Get a clue….
FIRE CHILDRESS NOW !!!!!!
What a buffoon. You’re not supposed to go out and get arrested until AFTER you sign that bloated contract.
Maybe the plowboys will sign him. They seem to be trying to assemble the most talented bunch of jailbirds in professional sports.
Final confirmation has come in that Darrion’s head is not in the right place. When pulled over in Charleston, his correct line was not: “Don’t you know who I am?” It was, “Don’t you know who I was?” You can still make some mistakes and stay a Viking. (Perhaps some bouncers actually are eager to get street cred by saying, “I bashed Mount McKinnie.”) However, don’t plan to be on Zygi’s good side long when you start the trash talk on public law enforcement.
[…] Free-agent defensive end Darrion Scott was arrested on Wednesday, for “probable cause felony assault.” […]
Yeah, the ‘Boys, no doubt. Hope the Vikes aren’t doing the same to just win, baby. Pay me a million & you’ll be surprised how well I can keep my nose clean.
when ever the media refers to this they won’t say FA Dscott they will say former Viking and maybe make some kinda love boat joke
when teams like the Bears,Bengals,Jags,Beoncos and Raiders are full of violent wife beating gun toting, gangsta’s or even committing hate crimes like Manning JR did on the Bears and the thing the public and national media take biggest offence to is some guys getting hammered, playing cards and rubbin up some strippers…..
Viking fans should have been most upset about the fact the we were 2-4 at the time and Culpepper and crew were partying like they won the super bowl
Tell these types of party’s don’t happen every week at players houses …heck at some of your houses and Mine (if Mrs Monc and my Condo communnity would mind) The biggest thing was they did it in public….well kinda in public
Party’s like that Happen like 10 times a year at TO’s
Pro athletes party like that quite a bit, maybe not all of them but most, the biggest thing that separates good players on and off the field is their rationalization of thought, do I drive my 200K Bentley home absolutely sauced, or call someone from the team or a friend or heavens for bid a taxi instead..and then do you go and party in public or just stage it in your million dollar home? Too many athletes are just plain a$$ stupid and retarded when it comes to making smart and rational decisions, thats I am most sick of hearing and seeing
More good press for the Vikings!
Right, Yukon. I get sick of hearing and seeing it too. Hard to believe an educated athlete can’t take the steps to NOT end up like former Vike Ivan Caesar. Only reason I brought him up is the rumors from the Orlando Sentinel video.
we always hear about all the meetings and lectures, etc… these athletes receive upon becoming a professional athlete about who they hang with, how to save their money and invest, Im beginning to think the whole thing is a damn scam to cover up the incompetence of each professional league, not to mention they wouldnt make all that money off of those players fines for wrongdoing if they actually did lecture them and take care of them
Stupidity is very hard to correct.
sometimes even good players screw up,in fact most people screw up ,pro athletes or not.
I don’t know. A LOT of players go their entire career without getting arrested or in some sort of legal trouble. Everyone deserves a second chance, but they are expected to learn from it. Some don’t for various reasons. It is not unreasonable to have high expectations of conduct, whether on a pro sports team or at our everyday work places. If they walk into your office and drag you out for marijuana, and then later for assault charges, what happens to you…?
I could use a double cheeseburger or two right now……only thing better would be a couple hundred beers to wash that down with…..
…anyone tried the el cheapo chicken wrap from wendy’s yet?….if so any good?
Is it true that Arby’s bought Wendy’s last week?
If so how will this effect Pat Williams?
Have we brought in anyone for a looksee at T
Would it matter?
Are there any FA( vetran) T’s available ..worth mentioning as a back up that can play?
Did Siefert take that Beef writter job in Atlanta?
bottom line is these athletes arent surrounding themselves with good people, if they were with good people they would have the wits about them to make rational decisions and make them understand the difference between right and wrong, same with an everyday joe as well, and if that still doesnt work, then that person no matter your social status deserves whatever the courts and the judge throws at you
carpet burns
in my early 20’s i just wanted to enjoy myself,didnt realy think about it.im just sayin….any of you guys ever get busted for anything?
I got busted for being awsome, tried to beat the wrap, but couldn’t , the charges stuck
CARTERHOF:
Once a Nun caught me spitting on the church lawn.
Busted!
Police said that on Wednesday, Eller hit two officers several times, threatened to kill them, and threw one of them onto the hood of his Mercedes during a scuffle in his garage after the officers caught up to him.
First Scott, now Eller busted. If Eller likes to hit so much, to bad, he didn’t hit the running back, that ran around his end all game long in the vikes first super bowl. Vikes might have had a super bowl win.
Any present day vikes want to fight, they should wait for the first regular season game at GB. Cocky packers, need to be taught a lesson, about the black and blue division. Go Vikes
least he could of done was catch fatty mc fat fat Marshall and stop him from doing the most boneheaded thing ever in football history
God i’m sick of reading about all the thugs in the NFL. They schould lock up most of them up and let them out on sundays. What a bunch of thugs.
When was the last time you read about a guy in the NHL getting arrested on a felony.
Some guys in the NHL should get arrested for what they do on the ice!
I’ll challenge that “most boneheaded thing”. Marsh got disoriented, OK. The Dallas idiot who tried to cover that missed FG on Thanksgiving? THAT was THE most boneheaded. The Brown LB who took off his helmet and cost his team a game… These are guys who had time to think and still made an unbelievable mistake.
[…] Source […]
Either what buster said, or hire someone to follow our football players around, 24 hours a day. Could hire fifty or so regular people to keep and eye on these young football players. Cost for all fifty, would be a lot less, then just one of these spoiled, young football players make for a years salary.
A child. This is really bad:

why do so many idiot blog here?? vikings need to cut all ties with scott, and these nfl thugs need to be punished.
scott was a FA flash, read it again
I found the postings here compelling, humorous and witty.
I got busted once for throwing eggs on Halloween, once for selling buzz-bee fireworks (they “flew” off the ground 14″-that’s what Sparky the Fireman told me) Did I get any press coverage for that? Guess I have to be a Viking to get my name in the paper.
Judd Zulgad is horrible!
….marijuana possession
.. failure to signal after being pulled over by officers in Charleston, W.Va
“probable cause felony assault”
‘hitting a child’
’selling buzz-bee fireworks’
Damnation and ruin. Where will it end??
Where is GermanVike and what does he have to say about Woldstadium…..?

For a mere $ 125 million we could turn the MetroDome into something really usable on a nice day…
Maybe this link will work…
Covered Domes gone wrong Videos proliferate…
Kyle Wright
most had him rated a little behind Dixon and O’Connell and ahead of Flynn and Kellar…..other than bringing in an additional arm for camp, could something be in the works here…..has anyone heard who Childress wanted for his next project had Booty not fallen to the 5th? After Booty, who I like a lot) Wright seems the best fit for BC’s KAO…..would like to see him stay on the practice squad and move up when Gus is gone. (Thigpen?)
Have heard in Green Bay, if one of the packers, did the same thing as Eller or Scott, the law looks the other way. Packer players can get away with anything short of murder, or armed robbery, in pucker land. Its all about putting a winning football team on the field, and keeping the bad news about the packers away from the press. Think about it, why else would they have taken two time loser, Koren. Rob.
In Tx. know of a winning HS football coach. That makes a six figure salary per year. Perks, he gets free rent, and even free electric. Even in High School football, in Tx, it is all about winning, regardless of the cost.
Expect a day chock full of Torgo everyone. The Master gave me the day off. I will be on here all day. DEAL WITH IT!
