[QUOTE]Detroit Pistons big man Greg Monroe has been suspended two games for "driving while visibly impaired" in the state of Michigan, the NBA announced Tuesday. Monroe will miss the first two games of the season after pleading guilty to the charge.

Driving While Visibly Impaired is described as a "lesser offense" to a DUI in the state of Michigan and could include other substances in addition to alcohol. Monroe will not be paid during his suspension.

The Pistons big man released a statement apologizing for his arrest.

when did the arrest happen? I wonder if that had anything to do with him signing the qualifying offer recently. He had until October 1st to sign, so it could be conceivable that this had a part in it.

C'mon Greg...

The officers administered a field breath test that indicated Monroe had a .089 blood-alcohol level, above the state of Michigan's legal limit of .08, and after being taken to the police station, he "urinated on himself during the booking process," the arrest report notes, according to MLive.com...

Monroe's listed weight is 249 pounds. According to this chart from the University of Notre Dame, a 250-pound male who blows a .10 two hours after his final drink likely had seven or eight drinks. This, combined with the fact that Monroe pissed himself, suggests Monroe is either lying about how much he drank or has a unique metabolism and weak bladder.
