Piling on bad in football, worse in Peterson saga

When a player falls on a ballcarrier after he's down, the extra tackler is penalized 15 yeads for 'piling on'. The Illinois criminal justice system should flag the Bolingbrook Police Pension Board for trying to rescind Drew Peterson's $79,000 annual pension. After 9 months a Board lawyer has determined it can move to recommend the pension be cancelled. It's a novel approach, just like Peterson's conviction on 'hearsay' evidence, as they cannot clearly point to police connected activities that lead to the murder, as required by law. Apparently, its of no concern that the $79,000 pension is not being used to bring Peterson champagne and cavier in his lifetime prison cell, but is instead used to raise his two youngest children. The Bolingbrook Police Pension Board is clearly piling on. And if you pick them up off the Peterson pile...you'll find a couple of little kids.
