I think we're all in agreement that the Carolina Panthers had an incredibly disappointing end to their season this year by getting throttled by the Arizona Cardinals. But as bad as that was, it seems like things could get even worse for at least one Panthers player. An investigation into the now-defunct HushHush call-girl ring in Charlotte has resulted in the arrest of two prominent businessmen. Reportedly, the escort ring generated more than $3 million over seven years by catering to “some of the city’s civic and business elite.” And, according to Pro Football Talk, there's at least one Panthers player, and possibly more, who are likely to wind up on the soon to be released client list.
So far, three HushHush clients have pleaded guilty to charges of soliciting prostitution. Apparently authorities videotaped men meeting with HushHush prostitutes and also installed telephone wiretaps that recorded clients arranging encounters with Sallie Saxon, who ran the operation. Saxon and her husband have pleaded guilty to federal crimes, and have been sentenced to prison.
As for clients, the potential penalty is up to 60 days in prison. But, naturally, the hilarity of having a pro athlete named in this prostitution sting will provide all of us all with jokes for a lifetime. And make life for him during road games very rough.
The question now is who exactly will be named? It can't be Jake Delhomme, since he can't connect with anyone, least of all his receivers. Anyway, feel free to guess away, since your guess is as good as mine.
