Fleury Involved in Columbus Bar Fight

Well, it couldn't have lasted for Theo Fleury.

As reported from a Columbus strip club, Theo Fleury was involved in a fight suffering a black eye and bloody lip. Apparently, the NHL thinks he should get another chance since being on Stage 3 of the NHL's substance abuse policy. It is basically on probation status. The Blackhawks signed Theo in hopes to turn his act around after the NY Rangers (of all teams) dumped his sorry ass this past summer.

I am not surprised at this decision that NHL will allow Fleury to play after he blatantly broke his probation status. After what happened to Peter Worrell the other day (see blog entry dated 12/3/02) that athletes get special treatment when it comes to breaking the law.
