Mad Dog Mascaro told you yesterday of the strange case of two Saints players who were busted for lewd conduct,obscenity and disturbing the peace when they were caught urinating in public in the Big Easy. (Actually, it's not all that strange, come to think of it, but you know what I mean.)
Anyway, the Saints made receiver Biren Ealy and tight end Kolo Kapanui the Aints earlier today, telling them to hit the road.
Ealy, 24, and Kapanui, 25, were arrested early Sunday morning and booked on charges of obscenity, disturbing the peace by being drunk in public and lewd conduct by urinating in public and exposing themselves.
Both players were long shots to make the Saints' roster even before the incident occurred. Ealy signed with the Saints in Janaury after spending the past two years with the Tennessee Titans, mostly on the practice squad. Kapanui joined the Saints' practice squad late last season, his first in the NFL.
