I thought Marcus Vick was going to be the butt-end of this week's "ha, ha, you're stupid" jokes.  I thought wrong.

 No word on whether Tank Carter is related in any way to Frank the Tank.

From an article on AOL Sports today: "The brother of Pittsburgh Steelers safety Tyrone Carter had his sentence for driving with a revoked license increased from six months to five years because he failed to report to jail on time."

Why did Tyrone's brother, Tank, fail to report to jail on time? He wanted to go to the Super Bowl. "Carter watched the Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks from the 50-yard line in Detroit and partied with rapper Snoop Dogg after the game."

Granted, he got to party with Snoop, which is a lifelong dream of mine, but is that worth 54 extra months of jail time?  Let's ask Tank's brother: "'I would have done the same thing,' Tyrone Carter said of his brother's decision."  Those Carter's are smart, really really smart.
