Chalmers, Arthur reportedly caught with marijuana
Basketball Betting Lines
09/03/2008 -
Memphis, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Kansas players Mario Chalmers and
Darrell Arthur were reportedly dismissed from the NBA's rookie transition
program.
The Memphis Commercial Appeal reported league officials discovered evidence of
marijuana use in the New York-area hotel room of Arthur and Chalmers, who were
members of Kansas' NCAA championship team last season.
The two will reportedly be fined at least $20,000 and suspensions could also
be on the table. They will also likely have to repeat the mandatory four-day
seminar, which addresses a variety of issues to transition rookies into the
league.
Chalmers was drafted by Minnesota and was then traded to Miami. Arthur
eventually landed in Memphis following deals through several teams.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football Week Four betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
