DJ Mbenga Mugshot Finally Emerges

DJ's Mugshot with taco found off floor, hopefully his lowest point

After first reading about DJ Mbenga's recent altercation with the law on Believe The Hype, I am reminded about the difference of lifestyle between pro athletes and those of us living more "normal lives." Sure, the highs are much highers than ours as working Joes, but the lows are much lower as well for professional athletes.

DJ's story reminds us of this paradox. One day you are sitting there with your giant championship taco and wearing your 16 thousand dollar pinky ring and in a blink of an eye you are eating a crusty taco you found on the floor of an old jail cell, drunk on expired verde sauce and old memories.

DJ in the good days with his championship taco

Keep your head up DJ, things will get better and I bet there are still more tacos in your future!
