Josh Gordon Troubles
-
've seen the results up close and personal- trying to get blood tests from those guys when they show up in ER, and watching 20 gauge needles bend when you try and bust through the scarred up track marks. I won't get into the more ingenious locations the hard cores find veins to shoot up when their arms are shot- I'm sure you already know.
When I was on the job, I used 12 and even 10 gauge caths for venous access on trauma arrest patients. I liked to go big.......for me the larger needles were the easist to stick.
99.9% of trauma arrest patients died anyhow so it didn't matter what size in those circumstances

Time for a "Kids... don't try this at home!" disclaimer...
Meanwhile back at the thread...
Report on NFL Insiders yesterday was that Josh's case was still at the negotiation stage which apparently consists of a legal 3-way between his, the NFLPA's and the league's lawyers. The fact that it was still at this stage was taken to indicate there are circumstances that would have led to a suspension of less than the full season. However, the recent DUI may have reset the proceeding.
-
They should just include the DWI, suspend him for 8 games-to-a-year and force him to get more help... Ive given up on seeing him play this season anyway...
-
i would be amazed if he sees the field this year.
drafting WR next year for sure.

The more I think about the way the NFL is handling this, the more it pisses me off. The NFL has an obligation to the organization to let them know of their decision one way or the other, and waiting until just days before camp starts is not acceptable. Who knows, maybe behind closed doors the NFL has already informed the Browns of the outcome but the Browns can't acknowledge it publicly yet........... Hopefully, one way or the other, that's the case, because it's total BS that the Browns don't know exactly what to prepare for with camp right around the corner.

I think they're waiting until there's some kind of indication on which way they'll go with the NFLPA regarding any changes to the weed laws. They don't want to suspend Gordon indefinitely (meaning he can't train with his team) and then make it only a fine-able offence, for example.

I get that, but they need to get on with it for the sake of the Browns.

I tihnk we're probably planning for life without him, but if it turns out he just misses 4 games or something then he'll be welcomed back for our playoff push...

There won't be any changes to the NFL weed laws. It will be banned regardless if were legalized in all states.

Not so fast there, diehard. Marijuana is an effective pain reliever without the physical addiction component of opioid pain relievers. I think the league would be remiss if they didn't evaluate the substantial research available on the effectivenss of pot as an analgesic. Already there are effective marijuana creams that help with pain without the user getting "high"
as well, the feds are rattling their sabers as they consider whether to come after the league for questionable control and custody issues involving opioids and player injury treatment.

Time to recap Gordon's litany of crimes:
1. Smoking marijuana while being in the NFL
2. Driving with a BAC 0.9 in a state in which 0.8 is legal.
Thug! Retard!
Who makes these choices at 23?
Should never be allowed the privilege of playing in the NFL again!

-- Ray Rice cold cocked his fiancé in an elevator and knocked the 110 lb. woman the fuck out. There's video. That fucker will play this year.

Fuck, by your logic, Josh Gordon is wiser than me. That is rather sobering.

i thought my friend was smoking an ecigarette the other day....i was wondering why the guy kept smiling and was getting lifted..........turned out to be another form of weed called 'wax'.
these dudes are nuts.

I'm sorry but that is the best form of THC out there. Granted, I swear Ive never touched it, but that stuff is amazing. It is called wax, oil, and hash oil. You can put the oil into the vapor cartridge and nobody is the wiser...until you are laughing like an idiot and most likely drooling on yourself. Hypothetically speaking, obviously, if I were supposed to be on pain killers and had the option to use the oil, I'd go oil all day.

In California, I was using coconut oil with THC mixed into it. It was kind of like butter, and the person who made it said I could use it as such, but it did wonders for healing and pain relief. Just rub it into the areas that are bothersome, and poof, all is good. Like you said, you dont get high, but man does it work well.

I need to google this "wax". the high grade kush weed around here reeks. you can smell it a mile away and you sure as hell don't want to smoke it in your house for all its pungent properties

The stuff I never had was made from Luke Skywalker, and it tasted better than each time I tried the same strain in California. If you try it, be careful, one rip is all you need. It is very potent. I made the mistake of ripping that thing when my friends were smoking cigarettes, trying to keep my mind off of not being allowed cigarettes anymore, and it caused my first time of being cutt off from a bar. It is on par with taking bong rips of good hash.

stick a fork in him....he be done
For this season he is indeed out the door. Don't know if he will ever see the light. A sad tale of the always famous line "What could have been". I was so pumped after last year, surely he won't fuk this up he can write his own check. But Noooooo, getting high was worth more than your team. You need to be shut down for a while, but the Browns should keep the rights to him. He maybe could be saved...

You can't turn your back on a talent like JG. Browns need to start a full court press and explore all the options that can support this phenom. i.e around-the-clock security, life coaching/mentoring, talk therapy, anything and everything.

I hope they dont cut him lose as they really have nothing to lose holding on. Having said that most of those things wont keep him out of trouble until he is ready to change his life. The sad thing is he may never be ready to change his life.

you have to use a vaporizer or something called a Gpen.
