    I got it from fox sports dot com

    "I've always been competitive, I've always been in sports," said Newton, a retired six-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman. "I couldn't see myself not being the biggest dope man."

    Newton's final year in the NFL in 1999 was with Carolina Panthers.

    Newton, 43, was released from a Louisiana prison last year on drug possession charges after serving about 2 1/2 years behind bars.

    Newton, of East Ellijay, Ga., estimated he could make up to $75,000 per drug deal, another reason he said running drugs appealed to him.

    In November 2001, he and two women were pulled over for a traffic violation on Interstate 10 in St. Martin Parish, La. Newton and the others were accused of hauling 213 pounds of marijuana in their van with plans to sell it.

    While out on bond six weeks later, Newton was arrested again, this time in Ellis County. He was accused of hauling 175 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of a car.

    Newton made his comments Thursday during a talk show on Dallas radio station KKDA. He said he became remorseful while serving time in a federal prison in Texarkana, before he was transferred to a federal facility in Louisiana.

    "I got on my knees and said, 'God, I want to make a deal. ... You protect me in here, and when I come out, I'll do everything I can to make it right,"' he said.

    175 lbs. of Marijuana? Jesus... If he were caught in Michigan, he'd NEVER get out of prison.

    This is going to be covered in the upcoming Hollywood film: Nate and Michael go to Whitecastle. [​IMG]
