Does this look like the face of a Superbowl winning kicker that would vadalize a towel despensor?


PITTSBURGH (AP)—Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Jeff Reed is in trouble with the police over some towels, but not the Terrible kind waved by his fans.

Pennsylvania state police say Reed threw a temper tantrum at a Sheetz convenience store in New Alexandria, a tiny borough about 35 miles east of Pittsburgh, because its restroom didn’t have any towels.

Reed has been cited for disorderly conduct and criminal mischief, offenses similar to traffic tickets that carry a maximum fine of $300 and 90 days in jail each. Police said he broke the towel dispenser then used profane language to an employee and also outside the store.

“Reed caused damage to a towel dispenser as he was infuriated at the fact that there were no towels in it,” according to a news release by Trooper Shawn Askins, who issued the citations. The incident occurred Saturday about 2:50 a.m.


DOUCHEBAG UPDATE: Jeff Reed is an even bigger doucher than I originally thought. Hey Jeff Reed how are you going to celebrate your Superbowl victory? Going to Disneyland? Nope how about you go and vandalize a convienent store at 3am because they were out of towels. I would expect something like this from someone like Kyle Lambert but not from a 29 year old professional athlete. How has this guy not been sentenced to mandatory AA by now?
