  • One way or another, the kush transgression will dearly cost the young kushman

    If I were calling the shots in Berea, I would explore every available avenue to part ways with Gordon. Sooner than later.

    He's become and will remain a distraction.

  • Just learned that if Girdon is banned for a year that year does not count against the two seasons still on his contract

  • Johnny's a distraction already. Want him gone as well?

    Y'all think players just do it to be cool....which may be true for a few. But many players use for pain management, and to help deal with anxiety.

    Sure beats getting hooked on opiates. Ya know....real drugs.

  • Also NFL is going into negotiations on the current drug policy to do two things. First is to get a system in place to test for HGH.

    Second is to... Reduce the penalty for use of pot! This might be why farmer doesn't seem as worried. If talks about reducing the penalty go through, Gordon's punishment could be reduced to reflect the new rules. What those new rules will be is anyone's guess, and it all depends on how long this takes the league and the NFLPA to work out but if it gets done sooner we could very well see Gordon playing this season as the rules would go into affect immediately.

    I would love to see this as just a fine going, maybe 1-4 games.

  • well as much as I'd like to see the dumbass get a break just because it would be good for the Browns I'd guess it would be hard for the league to give him a break while other players had to take the suspension.

    I did hear on the radio, just for mitigation purposes, some sports writer saying that he knew the kid and that he was a nice humble young man. I guess that's better than being a punk. So he's just stupid, which is better then a shitty attitude I suppose. WSS

  • Its a shame that gordon is going to be suspended for smoking weed. The only reason i would have people abstain from weed in professional areas is because of the damn smell it leaves, but on someones off time i see nothing wrong with it. Sure rules are rules, and josh should've known, but it seems like hes just dumb enough to get caught, its been stated over and over again that a large number of players smoke weed in the national football league

  • Not only in the NFL, but really in every position across the board- Across America. Everyone's done it or IS doing it. And if you haven't ever tried it because the MAN told you not to... You are a pussy and you haven't lived.

  • As an active duty military member, I would lose the last 12 years of my life if i were to pop positive for any type of drug. Hell if I get an DUI i will be processed for seperation. I wish I could give these guys an easy way out, but dudes who play a sport for a living and make millions in my book, need a damn reality check.

    Vapes are pretty much odorless. Check em out. Theyre also way better for your health.

  • Why did this all become huge news the day after round one and go away for a week? Does anyone know what the process is for the suspension?

    I won't hijack the thread but that statement very well may not be true. It's pretty much assumed that they are less harmful but there really hasn't been a proven study on it. I've never been a smoker but those things still do put nicotine into your system although at a reduced rate. I'm sure they do help though, but I just hope it encourages people to stop smoking in any form. My dad doesn't have lung cancer thank God but years of smoking have made him have so many damn health problems, it's just saddening.

    LOL, I suppose he can now claim he tested positive because of all that second hand smoke in the room. 🙂

    Bizarre , I just trained a new hire several weeks ago that lives in that same building. what are the odds

  • Why would you want to live in downtown cleveland? Even if you work there I would not want to live there. The commute is not that bad.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

    I just read about this. Three possibilities would be that instead of simply testing positive he either missed a drug test (for whatever reason), had a deluted sample, or whoever gave him the test didn't follow the proper procedures and the testing was flawed. If evidense good evidense is given for any of these reasons, there is a chance he would instead miss between half a season, to missing no time at all.
