Josh Gordon Troubles

I was kidding of course. But that is probably why he hit her.
Evidently she "attacked" him. Sounds like a solid relationship.

So if Puffy is going to be suspended for a significant amount of time and the NFL hasn't told the Browns yet, then right now, he is taking reps away from another player that is going to have to step up this season to help fill his absence................ Like I said earlier, it's total bullshit how the NFL is handling this in regards to the Browns.
-
hey he just got done with two whole weeks of rehab. I'd imagine that should do the trick...
WSS

Two weeks when you are stoned can seem like a life time..
-
Hopefully he gets only 8 games but the Commish is most likely going to bring the hammer down full season

whatever they suspend him for is how long he should go to rehab for. 8 games = 6 months. a year = a year. and if the browns are going to back him up as to not lose his talent then it's time for some type of chaperone program.....or something.

Gordon’s appeal focuses on disparity between “A” and “B” bottle tests
For Gordon, the “A” bottle showed a concentration of 16 ng/ml, only one nanogram per milliliter above the limits of 15. The “B” bottle showed a concentration of 13.6 ng/ml — less than the threshold.
But because the “A” bottle was labeled “A” and not “B” and because the “B” bottle was labeled “B” and not “A”, the end result is a positive and a minimum one-year banishment from the NFL. Flip the bottles when it’s time to apply the labels, and Gordon isn’t facing a suspension.
It actually looks like Gordon may have a legitimate Case here . . . this really could be the result of second hand smoke at these levels.
FYI - I've seen that 50ng is the limit for Air Traffic Controllers, NFL is looking at 15ng ?
There are talks about the NFL limit change due to facts like this and other Sports/Career fields having different levels.
The disparity between the two samples itself raises questions.
Throw in 70 passed tests at up to 10 tests per month . . . this is the NFL though, and some of their decisions are head scratchers.
I think Gordon has some behavior issues he needs to address, but in this Case it's looking like he may just be hanging with the wrong crowd.

I remember back in the day when piss tests just started in the Military. I was an MAA and at the beginning we did piss tests illegal as hell. It was supposed to be 'random' but we knew pretty much who the druggies were. So our legal officer would walk down a formation and 'pick' every 8th man or whatever. We got a first class (E-6) for marijuana. Now understand, in the military you pop positive one time and you are kicked out with an OTH (Other then Honorable) discharge. He claimed to have eaten a pasta dinner at his neighbors house and unknowingly to him, she put a secret ingredient of some pot in it. The CO Didn't buy it.

it sounds good and even seems like a good idea...idealistic, but not reality. not in the United States. no one over 18 could legally be subjected to that treatment without violating their rights.
due to accursed personal freedoms and that bill of rights bullshit
we are forced to allow the young man free will...and all the rope he needs to hang himself.as we watch intently.

I like this comment from the article
"He should have just punched the drug tester unconscious, then he would be able to play this season."
If that story is true . . . Damn it's dumb
Dude's had some bad luck barely fails the test, barely fails breathalyzer. Maybe he's actually not the hopeless druggie we all thought he was. Still keep some better company man.

Ah... the old, oregano gambit... in reverse...

I had a suspicion something was legit about this appeal considering how long it has taken. Players have failed tests and been suspended while Gordon has been waiting.
Florio is a Browns fan, and I'm sure him releasing this article on his site three days before the appeal, while the NFL is getting battered by the public on Ray Rice, is not a coincidence.
However the NFL being the NFL probably doesn't care. -

yeah cuz he's gettin too cute and taking it "to the line" every time and getting caught.
this is not a "poor Josh", "woe is him", "he's the victim" type situation. he thought he could outsmart the system...and he FAILED.
multiple times taboot.
Still keep some better company man.

Another story hit the wires :
Studies have shown second-hand smoke exposure can result in test results similar to those of Gordon, according to ESPN. Gordon's test results would have been considered negative for marijuana by other professional sports testing regimes, including the Olympic standard and Major League Baseball.

Like they say, if you are under a microscope, why the hell would you even get close to anyone smoking dope? Stupid.

Definitely could use better judgement, and like I said, he does need to get some help with some behavior issues.
It actually does seem like he's off the drugs though from seeing what's involved in these testing stanards, and that is a positive step.
