Football has seen better weeks.
Three former pro football players were among those arrested in a Florida tax ring this week that involved an FBI sting, reported CBS News from Miami yesterday.
The FBI set up an undercover cash checking store in North Miami and the three cashed about $500,000 in fraudulent refund checks.
The players included former Oakland Raiders and New York Giants defensive tackle William Joseph, along with running back Michael Bennett, once a Minnesota Vikings first-round pick, and Louis Gachelin, who played professionally in Europe, seemed to put their team strategizing skills to use long after they left the field.
