Former Oakland Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler was an NFL MVP and a Super Bowl winner, and any biography of him should focus, first and foremost, on his football career.But any biography of him also needs to acknowledge that drinking and driving has been a major feature of his post-NFL life. He was convicted of drunk driving in 1995 and again in 2001, and his most recent DUI arrest has led him to take a leave of absence from his radio job.
So it's strange that someone keeps editing Stabler's drunk driving record out of his Wikipedia entry. First the information about Stabler's arrests and convictions will go up, and then it will get deleted. The absence of information about his drunk driving arrests has now been a subject of discussion at Wikipedia. One Wikipedia user writes:
I'm not sure why these aren't mentioned in the article, at least in some form...it can be done in an encyclopedic manner...why is there protection going on?Good question. If someone who likes Stabler is trying to do Stabler a favor by whitewashing his record, here's a suggestion: Do Stabler a bigger favor by convincing him to stop risking his own life and the lives of everyone else on the roads.
