Josh Gordon Suspened Two Games

This is bullshit, the rules and laws regarding pot need to be changed now. Wake up America! Fucking get a clue and stand up to this outdated bullshit of a prohibition. It's about Goddamn time that we stand up to this bullshit. If drinking is legal then pot must be as well; and if pot is illegal then booze needs to be as well, you can't have it both ways, motherfuckers!

um what does weed have to do with JG getting popped for codeine??

dumb fucker can't stick to the gin and juice. strep throat...who the fuck is he trying to kid. "Purple drank" is codeine cough syrup mixed with
sprite or whatever. it's prevalent amongst the hip hop community in the south (esp Texas) sez Wikipedia (see purple drank). Josh can't seem
to keep his fingers out of the cookie jar and he doesn't seem smart enough to outwit those checking his piss. His NFL career is most likely going
to be short in duration. he's pissing it all away.
TR 's injury and now this. Shaping up to be yet another head-shaking opener against Miami.

Bottom line is if you are in a position that forbids ILLEGAL drugs you stay away from them or face the FUCKING CONSEQUENCES.

WTF is wrong with these idiots? Professional athletes, potential to make big money and be famous. Then they do something idiotic like this. I say cut the dumb ass and let him wait tables.

Yeah, what a dumb fucking moron. I mean, who takes cough syrup when they have strep throat? What an asshole. Fucking cut him, we don't need any people trying to heal their ailments on this team.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
Wow... this sux...
Always something with the Browns...

Make it simple simpleton. He is a known drug abuser and an idiot. So fuck off.

It is just two games. We have other receivers who can cover for him. Nelson will likely step in and cover for him nicely. Losing Gordon for two games won't be nearly as bad as losing Haden four games last year.

Its really just a lack of responsibility. Hes only 22 or 21 still a fucking kid. Two games isnt alot but it still hurts. I was certainly pissed when hearing this news but we still have a solid recieving corp that should be fine as long as the schemes and coaching fit (not to mention BW stepping up)

Kind of explains the cold comments from Banner the last month or so. Seems he had a feeling this was on the horizon.
He's a good player who has had these problems in the past, so if he can't stay clean, he is pretty useless to us.
I'd cut him if it ever happens again, and if I was a teammate, I'd slap him in the face for being a punk, then punch him in the face if he objected.

for once i agree with PoG that the laws about weed in this country are ridiculous. i betcha colorado climbs out of any negative budget they had just for legalizing it. imagine what it would do for this nation's economy. clear our debt in no time. BUT no, we have the old time hard liners who still think of weed as a devil's drug. believe me you don't run off the road or head on into other vehicles killing families by smoking pot like thousands do every year under the influence of alcohol. if anything you're driving under the speed limit thinking there's a cop around every turn.
but that's besides the point. gordon sure as hell pisses me off at this point. he's got such an upside and blows it away with some stoopid ghetto drink.
hey assmunch, you should have taken my bet gordon vs. bowe. too late now pussy.

Tha bottom line is he broke the rules...get over it.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

And as we all know, Congress passed that law saying people who have failed a drug test in their life are no longer allowed to seek medical care for thee ailments including, but not limited to: prescriptions, massages, over the counter drugs, acupuncture or any medical procedures, and wraps, braces or splints.
You're a fucking idiot.

As you probably know PG, I have no problems with guys smoking weed. Unfortunately, the NFL does- and rookies get it seriously drilled into their heads what they can do for recreational fun and games, and what they can't.
As to the rumors JG was suspended for doing codeine and booze- well, welcome to Joe Haden country. Show us a prescription where you were authorized for it, we have no problem.
Never tried it, but reports are you can catch quite a buzz slamming a bottle of it, and then topping it off with a few high octane drinks. Hell, way back in the 60s the hardcores would beg the pharmacist to sell them a bottle of Paregoric without a prescription (FWIW it contains a fair amount of OPIUM) then head down to the local booze emporium, pick up a bottle of Mad Dog or Thunderbird to slam along with it- (Mogen David 20% fortified wine) total cost about $5 in today's dollars- and pass out in the local bus stops.

Why the fuck does everyone think its pot. If it was pot, he would be out 4 games. He likely got it reduced because he came in and showed them the doctors note and prestription slip. Still against the rules but it shows that he wasn't abusing it. If he didn't show the NFL some kind of proof such as a sprip, then he would be out 4 whole games.

I agree. It's not known what the problem is at this point, and we probably never will. There was some mitigating factor that got it dropped to a 2 game suspension with a added 2 game fine.
None the less, we took a gamble on the guy. A guy who has made mistakes at every stop. It was about a year ago at this time when Gordon was telling NFL executives how he was a changed man and asking them to give him a shot in the upcomming supplemental draft.
I am all for giving people chances. It's the right thing to do. However, at some point you have to wash your hands of the person if they keep breaking that trust. If I was Banner, my first words with Mr. Gordon would be that we consider this his second violation and if there are any further violations, he will be dropped without pause.
