Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Jeff Reed requires towels, cited for disorderly conduct

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Jeff Reed apparently didn’t deal well when confronted with a poorly stocked men’s room at a convenience store early Saturday morning.

The kicking-for-accuracy enthusiast was cited for disorderly conduct and criminal mischief after throwing a temper tantrum because the towel dispenser was empty.

I was under the impression that a team rule mandated Steelers players carry around a Terrible Towel on their person at all times. I guess I’ve learned something this morning.

Those of you familiar with the more sensational side of sports blogging are probably well-versed in the tales of Reed, but for the initiated: there’s a lot of good stuff out there. Happy hunting.
