Pennington Speaks After DUI Bust

61. "I COULD HAVE jeopardized the lives of others"??? He DID jeopardize the lives of others by getting behind the wheel while intoxicated! He's just lucky he got caught instead of maiming or killing someone!

62. So now the exploitative, hyper, crybaby can go to rehab and/or jail. People forget that the sponsors and not the team are the ones financing these projects. Some of the contestants are in dire straits or sad circumstances but some of the others are too lazy to work harder to get what they need so they make these maudlin, pleading videos. Watching the show a few times is a few times too many.

63. I think he knows he made a very bad mistake. But I don't see him blaming anyone else. He doesn't think that h is above the law !!!!!! that is the bg diffrence Best of luck TY

64. So to all of you who are glad to see Paris getting jail time now it's enough that Pennington just owned up to making an error in judgement? Hypocrytes.

65. What's with all these religious wing-nuts saying that "he was drunk! he needs rehab!" ... he doesn't need rehab, he needed a good scary: pretty sure he just got that! I'm going to get drunk tonight, stay home, not drive and make a toast to all the weirdos that think I need rehab. :)

67. !st off this isnt a guy thats in the spot light for doing bad deeds.He made a mistake and is paying for it.Saya here he bonded out for 5 grand.seems normal,and was out in 2 hours.that seems normal also,i dont get in trouble often but when i do i call my lawyer and i am out in a few hours also.He made a mistake, and he fessed up to it, give Ty a break , i mean he does good things for underprivelaged people,This is the type of guy that deserves a break.
And to add to that if this was a normal person,(not a celebrity), this wouldnt even be publicized, celebrities pay the price of the law, and have to face the national public also, so i bet it can be just as brutal of an experiance for them as much as it is to us.

68. Nice that he admited he made a mistake. Now he needs to do whatever time and pay whatever fine without trying to make excuses. If he does this, he will have my respect.

70. I need a barf bag. This guy is a total dopehead, about time he got busted. He claims he has Attention Deficit Disorder (yeah right) so he has script for Ritalin. Who knows what else he takes. So the guy you see jumping all over the place on tv is doing so with the help of chemicals. He's got a real cushy job he wants to keep. What did you expect him to say in a public statement, that we can all go "screw ourselves"??

72. I'm glad you're a big enough man to admit you made a mistake, like we all haven't made a few in our lifetime. You're an amazing person and have been thru let alone overcome so much yourself. But Let's not forgot all the families that not only you but ABC, EMHE, and the Design Team have helped throughout the past 4 season by giving them not only hope but a better future too. Without you guys, all the volunteers, the vendors, and the contractors alot of these family would have never had that chance, all of you rock!

It's now time for your true fans to rally around you and not turn their back on you as they run away "so called disappointed" because of you made a mistake and admitted to it have made it. It was a bad judgement call on your part, drinking and driving, but now you'll be able to turn that mistake into something good and come away even strong because of it.

75. California Dreamer: You SHOULD go screw yourself. I remember you from one of the other blogs, ya know...the one where you told us how you ruined a little girls life by picking on her and making up stories? I really can't take anything an admited PROUD bully says seriously. So like I said before, go screw yourself.
