Gordon Fails Again

The Browns Board

  • I think it is because Gordon had that prior DUI last year he was prohibited from drinking alcohol, a stipulation for players in the NFL with DUI convictions. I found this online with what seems a similar case:

    Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater will be suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy, his lawyer Harvey Steinberg said Sunday.

    The Denver Postfirst reported Prater's suspension late Saturday night.

    Steinberg told USA TODAY Sports the NFL will announce the suspension on Monday.

    Steinberg said Prater had been in the NFL's substance abuse program since a drunken driving arrest in suburban Denver in Aug. 2011, and was prohibited from drinking alcohol, a common stipulation for players with DUI arrests. Steinberg said Prater tested positive for alcohol this summer after drinking beer at his home, while on vacation.

    "This guy was off probation. There's no allegation that he used PEDs or illegal drugs," Steinberg said. "He was on vacation, had three beers three years after a DUI. Come on, give me break."

    So alcohol is only a bad drug when you've previously endangered yourself and others. But weed is always that bad.... ok? (though, if I remember correctly, his DUI was borderline as well)

    Poor Josh. Everyone's out to get him. It's everyone else's fault. Boo hoo.

    I never said that. Regardless of what happened here, the NFL doesn't have the best Drug Policy.

    Give it 5 years until weed is legal anyway, then it should change some.

  • regardless of whether the rules are good or not...bottom line is that Gordon is a complete dumb ass with zero self control ....

    he's so stupid it hurts

    He will have lots of time to smoke and drink now....good for him!

  • The Browns stood by him. He's made his choice & I'm all for cutting him quickly so he can pursue that choice full time & not have to worry about the Browns & the NFL interfering with it.

    What a dumbass loser!

    Mike

  • No alcohol, part of his DUI probation I venture...

  • I still don't think I'd cut him. We've given him plenty of opportunities and this is how it's been repaid.

    Why give him yet another opportunity by cutting him?

    Say that again. More slowly this time.............................

  • I am glad for the Browns at least this didn't happen right before the season started. The NFL has a tough policy but Gordon knew that and made the choice to drink anyway.

  • Sad. I actually had more hope for Gordon getting his

    stuff straightened out, than for Johnny.

    I'd give up on both of em. It's useless, maybe.

    Until, like I think it was Chris Carter, he hits bottom.

    Browns don't have the time. I have the Garoppollo blues worse now.

    Let me get this straight. They "fucked on" the first round picks last year..?

    Jury is still out on Gilbert (who was a part of that trade) and the Browns have yet to use their picks for next year.

    Jelly beans > taint shingles, but they're not really related to each other. And Gilbert, a first and a fourth is still better than Sammy Watkins.

    That's one of the most piss-poor troll attempts I've seen around here.

    What?

  • uuhhh... we had a pretty good draft

  • If you are under a suspension for drugs it includes alcohol. He is a dumb fucking idiot. Good riddance.

  • This time likely for good from the browns.

    Johnny is going to need a good wideout from trade or free agency now to replace him.

    So even after all of the recent rhetoric from Haslam, Famer, Pettine and Flip you still have this delusion that they will hand Johnny Shithead the ball automatically???????????????????????

  • @mld-woody said:

    Wait, it was alcohol, not weed? Wtf.... so he got a DUI?

    When someone is a drug addict they are not allowed to have ANYTHING.

    That would be correct for ones own personal recovery. It is often not the case with a work or union rule.

    It's impossible for him to see reason and realism when his head is so far up his own ass.

  • it's been an hour since this news broke.....and HEY!.....Im already over it......Josh who?
