Tim Smith, who set a Super Bowl rushing record with the Washington Redskins in 1988, was sentenced in Denver on Friday to 2 1/2 years in federal prison for cocaine distribution. The 42-year-old former running back also was ordered to pay $88,000 in back child support and must report to prison by July 10. His brother, Christopher Smith, 35, was sentenced May 12 to five years of probation.

This is sad...I remember his one big game in life...he was part of that huge Redskin explosion against the Broncos in a game when Elway was thought to be a bit of a loser...cocaine is one thing...but Tim $88K behind on child support!...that's jsut not right dude!

According to the story above, the jail time was reduced to 30 months after both Smith and his brother pleaded guilty to a single drug charge, resulting in the other charges being dropped. He was still ordered to pay back the $88k in child support.

A cooler sentence was, you are sentence to work...pay off the back owed child support, and then serve your time...once you have paid the child support, we will talk about reducing your time...
