Miami Dolphin Marshall Stabbed
Miami Dolphins wide receiver, Brandon Marshall, was taken to the intensive care unit in a South Florida hospital Friday and had to have surgery for a stomach wound. Marshall's wife Michi Marshall admitted to stabbing Brandon in the abdomen, claiming self-defense.  Michi is in jail for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.  This is not the first incident of domestic violence for Brandon Marshall.  When he was playing for the Denver Broncos police were called three times in three months in 2007 for incidents between him and his then girlfriend, Rasheedah Watley.  Watley was hospitalized for a cut on her thigh an injuries sustained after being punched in the face. But while considered one of the NFL's top wideouts, Marshall's NFL career has been marred by off-field incidents. He was arrested on multiple occasions and involved in other domestic-related incidents between 2006 and 2009. While most charges were later dismissed, dropped or reduced, Marshall served a one-game suspension in 2008. The length of the suspension was shortened from three games by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. This isn't the first time Marshall suffered a serious injury during the offseason. Marshall badly lacerated his arm during the 2008 offseason when he smashed it through a television at his house. Marshall initially said he slipped on a food wrapper but then admitted he also was involved in "horseplay" after news surfaced on NFL Network of an alleged wrestling match involving family members.
