REPORT(s): Josh Gordon diluted drug test (failure) -- LAST MONTH! IDIOT!
-
This is so fucking stupid. I get it, rules are rules. He needs to follow the NFL's rules.
But if this was 5(ish) years from now, weed is legal and this isn't even an issue. But instead, he's too early. He'll be on the streets instead of being an Elite WR with millions.
Weed will never be legal in the NFL.

Why? its not a ped

There were some of us, im pointing at myself rigjt now, that were screaming to trade this guy 3 years ago. Screamed to trade him 2 years ago too. We could have gotten a 1st rounder for him 3 years ago and still potentially a 2nd before he got popped on his 3rd strike.
Some of u just dont get it. You saw crazy potential where the smart ones, me again, saw a guy who you couldnt count on for a full season. And on top of all that he's a loafer who gives the play away at the line. Db's read him like a book. That to me is far worse than the weed problem and i said so 3 years ago. Its a guy who doesnt understand some pretty base fundamentals of football. You cant jog off the line and make pouty faces when you know the ball isnt coming to you. Why more of you didnt see the writing on that wall is beyond me. That low work ethic coupled with a weed issue? Forget it, not gonna happen.
Bet you anything the league would have looked past "some" of his failed tests if he was a reknowned workaholic and a consummate pro on the field.

But instead he's prime material for tje nfl to "make an example". They'll save the free passes snd get out of jail
Cards for the guys who earned it

On field has nothing to do with off field. Just ask Von Miller or Leveon Bell.
I cut Gordon all the slack in the world- because a motivated and clean Josh is the best WR we've had- well, in like forever. I'm done with the guy- and I'm willing to bet the Browns are too.
You've been given like how many chances to get it together? If you prefer weed over a couple million bucks, your choice. It's been real.

Some companies have no NICOTINE policies and test for it.
Name one.
-
Our County hospital does. You won't get hired if you use nicotine and you will get fired if you're caught. Not sure how many places outside of healthcare would have that policy thoughName one.
Some companies believe the no nicotne policy lessens the medical burdens that smoking, chewing and dipping tabacco cause. Its your choice. to work or not work for a company like this.Our County hospital does. You won't get hired if you use nicotine and you will get fired if you're caught. Not sure how many places outside of healthcare would have that policy though

If this is confirmed (as opposed to Ian Rappoport's report, which are usually 50/50), then that's stupid and he's done in the league. Otherwise, business as normal.
-
So I doubt this means anything but perhaps the reports aren't true:
-
Penn National does nicotine screening when hiring.Penn National Gaming.
Miami Valley Hospital.
There are TWO for you.
-
It's a shame that the fans can't sue assholes like Josh and Butt Buddy for fraud.
-
Penn National Gaming.
Miami Valley Hospital.

Wow. Very surprised.

It must be more addictive than you thought.

And every report I manage to find on the matter said that it's somehow not "cut and dry." Like other people have said, the sample tested positive for weed, but it wasn't enough to trigger a "positive" finding. What DID was the masking agent "dilute", so I'm not sure that makes a difference. I've read in various articles that Josh Gordon "might not be facing a year ban", which is what is taking so long.
He has to know the rules and abide by them...no doubt about it. He did this to himself, and I realize this. But...does the NFL REALLY want to take someone's career away for something like this? It's a tough pill to swallow. Again, he has to follow rules, I get this. But geez...

lot's of people i know use and love the mary jane but they're not employees of companies that screen for it. hell most own their own companies.
so if you don't want to follow people's rules regarding 'weed done' then work for a co. that doesn't care, but IMO you are selling yourself short just to catch a buzz and look like a smiling fool.
josh and woody could start up their own hacky sack tournaments. yeah, that's it! they could have the grateful dead music pumping in the background and sell tie dye tshirts. it's a money maker i tell ya!

Adam Schefter:
Josh Gordon's potential reinstatement will be delayed until NFL feels comfortable he has 60-90 days of no red-flag tests, per league source.
So if all goes well and if Josh Gordon stays clean - big ifs - he could be reinstated to play the 2016 season.

Cool.
I can't imagine any more red flag tests.

Hopefully they don't take a chance on this dude. He has had more chances then he deserves.

Sometimes the party has to end. Not for everyone tho life isn't fair. A person has to live in boundaries set by his authority. He has none now. Thanks for nothing Josh at least we found out before the draft.This is so fucking stupid. I get it, rules are rules. He needs to follow the NFL's rules.
