    wait until they announce the irsay punishment. if gordon is gone for 8 games because of that test (weed) and irsay gets less with possession of coke and a suitcase of money (drug deal or money laundering) and ray rice only got 2 games for knocking out his ho, shit will go up like a bouncing betty.

    let's see what happens to aldon smith friday because he has some serious charges against him.

  • The problem is, the NFL doesn't care if they take a beating in the media. It will all be forgotten once the season starts.

    not really. i think you'll see womens groups doing some type of on camera protests. wearing pink shirts with some anti-NFL saying on them. i'll guarantee it.

    don't fuck with a pissed off lady. you should know that by now.

    Yeah... All those animal rights groups really made a dent... I'm sure the women's rights groups will do the same...

    And they are still called The Redskins.

    (in fact, didn't Dan Snyder just come out with some propaganda about that yesterday?)

    tell me if i'm wrong but the league can't address the alleged ovi until he is proven guilty in a carolina court?

    if that's the case then the quick solution is to delay the case until season end

    the fuckin drama is wearing me out

    The pos test is what the suspension will be about. The dui will be a seperate case, and he was .09, .01 over the limit, and when he did it again at the police station it was even lower.

    What Roger is saying is that when there is:

    - a pattern of behavior, e.g., Blackmon, he does not wait for the court decision.

    - not a pattern of behavior, e.g., Irsay, Rice, he waits.

    That's his story... and he's sticking with it.

    So the question is, does he consider - weed, weed, cough syrup, 2nd hand weed, speeding (not my weed) DUI - a pattern???

    🙂 the problem with Irsay is it's certainly not the first time he was doing it, just the first time he got caught.

    The smart thing for Goodell to do IMHO would be to just drop the iffy drug charge (which could be challenged in court)- and suspend Gordon for two games under the personal conduct policy- which can't be.

    8 games?! I'm thinking 2-4, and really should be no more than 2.

    Since this isn't a court of law, but an administrative penalty governed by contract with the players union, do they have to follow the law of a state to give an admin punishment? I wouldn't think so.

    I suspect not, because then you'd have different rules for different players in the league (ie, all the smokey joe's would go to Denver)

    The precedent has already been set that NFL teams are employers of the players who are employees. Employers must follow state employment guidelines.

    That would seem unfair to a player who played in a state with liberal laws, vs one with strict laws.

    My point exactly. Also, I'm not sure if the state/federal thing applies here to league rules, where a positive drug test is grounds for suspension - I'm not sure if there's such a stipulation in state law?

    That was the entire crux of the Star Caps litigation with the one Saint and the 2 Vikings. They were in court for 2 seasons before things were resolved. It all hinged on Minnesota state law in regards to how drug tests are administered. The players essentially won that lawsuit.
