Britt Reid Busted Again
Britt Reid is in trouble again. Of all places, Andy Reid's kid goes out and gets taken in to custody at Dick's Sporting Goods.
Shortly before 4 this afternoon Plymouth Township Police received a tip call that Britt Reid was under the influence and about to drive away in his pickup truck from the Dicks Sporting Goods parking lot on Chemical Road in Plymouth Township.
When police arrived Britt was getting into his truck and started to drive away. They quickly pulled him over and took him into custody. He was taken to Mercy Suburban Hospital in Norristown to be tested for illegal substances and/or alcohol in his system. Results of those tests are expected to be returned in several days.
It's possible he was just very upset that Jeremiah Trotter was released. More family troubles at the Reid house could have significant implications on the coach's role with the Eagles this year. More to come, and let us know what you hear.
UPDATE: Looks like he got hit by a shopping cart. This could effect the sentencing he is already facing.

He was looking to get a Trotter jersey on sale. That's all.

What an idiot. He needs to get the book thrown at him if he ends up being convicted of driving under the influence.
There's simply no excuse for endangering the lives of others. If he wants to take drugs/drink, that's fine. But don't risk the lives of others with your selfish decisions.

I actually got my pair of Phillies sandals there. Good deal, only $20. I hope Britt picked up a pair--he'll need them in the prison showers.

Hey, I've been to Dick's Sporting Goods before. Sometimes you need a little "liquid courage" to pay some of the prices they charge for authentic Eagles jerseys.
Note to the Reid boys: Please, please stay the fuck out of my neck of the words.

...as well as my neck of the woods. Stay out of those, too.

"Stay out of my neck of the woods."
I agree. Either of them would be the last people I'd like to see driving next to me.

He was definitely on Chemical Road.
I was listening to the Barsky show on WYSP and a guy called in who said he witnessed the whole thing go down. Britt came in to return something but couldn't figure out what he wanted instead. He was clearly intoxicated and acting erratic. The store clerk escorted Douchey McGee to the parking lot where he then proceeded to wander around the parking lot randomly pressing his keyless entry button because be couldn't remember where he parked his MOTORCYCLE! Funny thing is he arrived at Dick's in a black SUV. Go figure. The clerk, rightfully so, called police not knowing it was Shitt Reid. While attempting to drive away he nailed a bunch of shopping carts. The cops arrived, and about six minutes later, so did Chopper Six.
