Patriots RT Nick Kaczur was arrested in April for possession of Oxycodone without a prescription, and he was a part of a sting operation to arrest his dealer.

Posters on PatsFans.com are burning the cyber oil debating the circumstances in which they've found their team among not-so-good headlines again. Opinions ranged from offering their sympathies for Kaczur, who was reported to have purchased 100 Oxycodone pills for $3,900 cash on three separate occasions as a police informant, and some expressed some frustration over the matter.

One poster took a comical swipe at the Spygate scandal:

"very surprised. not that he had pain killers, but that he was arrested, and the entire media world wasn't calling for b.b.'s (Bill Belichick's) suspension"

PatsFans.com is really active with this topic, and the opinions and debates cover a large spectrum of angles, but one poster summarized the situation from a broader perspective:

"The (Boston) Globe painted this as another Patriots scandal, while all it is is a player who has addiction issues.. it is what it is.. hopefully he recovers and can be an asset to this team."
