McNeal elbows officer, charged with resisting arrest HOUSTON -- Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Reggie McNeal was arrested in Houston and charged with resisting arrest after being refused entrance to a nightclub early Sunday. McNeal, a former Texas A&M quarterback, was arrested outside The Red Door, said Houston police spokesman Gabe Ortiz on Monday. Ortiz said McNeal approached two officers who were standing near the entrance and became unruly when the officers told him the club was closing. McNeal "became aggressive and started using profanity" when the officers refused to let him enter, Ortiz said. McNeal walked away, then approached the officers again and elbowed one of them in the chest. Officers detected "a strong odor of alcohol" from McNeal, police said. McNeal was taken to jail, then released on a $1,000 bond. He was due in Harris County district court on Friday. McNeal set an A&M record with 6,992 passing yards and rushed for 1,889 yards, the second-most by an Aggie quarterback. The Lufkin, Texas, native set a Big 12 record with 213 consecutive passes without an interception. McNeal was the Bengals' sixth-round pick and has played sparingly. The Bengals had the weekend off after their Thursday night victory over Baltimore. "We have been informed that Reggie has been arrested," team spokesman Jack Brennan said. "We don't feel it's appropriate to comment on a matter that's not resolved." McNeal is the seventh Bengals player arrested this year. Now On The Docket ...

ROFLcopter! i just spit my **** all over my keyboard. that's funny as hell b/c it's true. still, at this point, i'd trade Carr for McNeal+Cincy's 4th Rounder.
Yeah, Reggie should've played that card. "I'm Vince Young, b!tch! I eat bullets and **** ice cream, so don't f^ck with me!" Maybe Reggie should get a job as Vince's driver. You know Vince would take care of his driver and hook him up and such.
