Speaking of DUI...Koren Robinson Update

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Koren Robinson will have to serve 90 days in jail for violating his probation in a 2005 drunken driving case, but he will not have to serve the time until after the football season.

Robinson must begin the 90-day sentence, half of which can be served in work-release, no later than Feb. 28. According to a person with knowledge of the situation, Robinson was working on a deal to serve the time in either Green Bay or Raleigh, N.C., where he lives in the off-season.

On Oct. 17, Robinson is scheduled to go to court over his most recent drunken driving charges, and if a deal isn't struck, he probably will have to go to trial after the season. The probation hearing was a bigger hurdle for Robinson in terms of being able to play this season because the Minnesota case probably will drag on into the off-season.
