Re: L.T. (Lawrence Taylor) Arrested for Rape of 15 year old teen
^^^LT admitted he was coked up for alot of games. they guy is a complete loser.
For Lawrence Taylor, nothing was out of bounds once he stepped off the football field.
The greatest linebacker in Giants history has been a crackhead, deadbeat dad and convicted tax cheat. He struggled with sobriety, responsibility and fidelity - and contemplated suicide.
"I could've been dead," the Hall of Famer said in a 2003 "60 Minutes" interview. "I could've OD'ed. I could've been shot."
Taylor survived and thrived, insisting he stayed off cocaine after a 1998 stint in rehab. But tales of his destructive drug habit and constant legal woes were as numerous as his 132-1/2 sacks.
The linebacker once appeared for a Giants team meeting in handcuffs - a memento of a late-night threesome.
He admitted beating an NFL drug test by borrowing clean urine, although he later failed a pair of tests and was suspended for four games in 1988.
Despite his antics, Taylor was a devastating defensive weapon who revolutionized his position. He won the NFL's 1986 MVP, an honor almost exclusively won by quarterbacks and running backs.
His blitzing style, size and speed made Taylor the toast of New York as his Giants won a pair of Super Bowls
Yet the day his number was retired, Taylor prepared for his Giants Stadium appearance by hitting the crack pipe.
Taylor said he first snorted cocaine as a rookie in 1981. But his harrowing descent into addiction followed the thrice-married star's 1993 retirement.
His Upper Saddle River mansion, by his own account, became "a crack house" where he smoked $1,000 worth of dope per day.
He was busted in May 1996 for trying to buy crack in South Carolina. "I ought to kill myself," LT said before being busted twice more on drug-related charges in the next two years.
In 1998, he was arrested for stiffing his ex-wife on support payments for their three kids - and later declared bankruptcy.
A recent bust was typically bizarre: Cops in Miami-Dade County popped LT in November for leaving the scene of an accident.
Taylor's 2009 Cadillac Escalade lost its front right tire in the crash, but LT drove 2 miles on the axle, police said.
Despite his efforts to stay clean, Taylor said in a recent interview that his favorite late night snack was "Chivas on the rocks
