REPORT(s): Josh Gordon diluted drug test (failure) -- LAST MONTH! IDIOT!
-
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.
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.

Amen and adios MF. Better to know now than August.
Z-you should photoshop a Weedeater in that pic.

It seems to me there must be much more to this story. With a dilute and any level of THC showing this makes no sense. You would think this would lead to absolutely no chance of reinstatement this year. The fact they are still considering his reinstatement in the next several months makes it beyond odd.

We'll just cut him. I expect it any day.

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

Um my wife works for one of the hospitals here in Dayton. Of course, no smoking on hospital grounds. Their pre-employment drug test screens for nicotine- as well as the other usual suspected drugs. You will get hired if you smoke- but you'll also pay a whopping extra premium on the company provided health insurance. Sounds fair to me.

At this point- I wouldn't be surprised by anything. What a dum-dum. He's on the cusp of getting reinstated, and now this. Plain as mud now why his reinstatement got held up.

I'm finally coming around to this POV.

If they're letting Josh do follow up drug tests- it leads me to believe what I speculated on earlier. Might just have been a trace of pot (which at this point is too damn much- Josh) & I have to wonder what their "fail" cutoff is for specific gravity. It's possible the sample was just under the cutoff. (The NFL isn't telling what it is) Pulling out the normals for urine SG- it can go all the way down to 1.002, which is damn near the SG of purified water 1.000 .

Both samples were under the cutoff level (for THC), but both contained a dilute, which is an automatic failure.

This whole thing still makes no sense. We are talking about someone who is banned from The NFL indefinitely. Based on that I can't imagine any circumstance under which they would consider reinstatement in the next 60 days when he purportedly intentionally tried to trick the test. I've been driving all day and unable to look at this stuff online. As an actual NFL source confirmed the test results? If not is it possible the red flag is behavior and not a failed test

Mike- I worked in a Hospital Lab for 30+ years. There's a difference between a diluted sample, and finding a drug in the urine like hydroclorothiazide (there's a bunch of others) - which can be used to promote urine production- to dilute a sample. I'll have to assume they actually watch the person pee- or else it's easy enough to keep a warm bag of water on your body to dilute the sample with. They're supposed to check the temperature of the sample- to prevent someone loading up the sample from a faucet.
-
They wouldn't fail someone if it wasn't suspected of intentional dilution. Would they? They detected THC and dilute in both samples.
-
Not sure. He's a banned player applying for reinstatement and his test allegedly failed per NFL testing rules. I don't know why, other than the report of a failed test is inaccurate, the NFL is showing mercy, or the NFL is a hypocritical entity with only profits on its mind.

Come on "fans", Ye fickle fucks, trust in Gordon. Comeback player of the year.
Have some faith. I believe in Gordon. I know many of you do not, and you never have.
I have his back, he's been working his tail off, trying to get ready for the comeback he's about to make.
Some people are what we like to call "haters", and these haters are everywhere and must be dealt with accordingly. People are always looking for a way to bash Gordon and it makes me sick. Will the world ever grow up? This report has got to be bogus... and yet, our own fans have turned their back on our best player... smh. When someone fires on your guy you are supposed to have their back, not turn on your own guy. From day one he's never been given the benefit of the doubt.
Stay strong and prove them wrong. #1 in the League. #Webarktogether

Our best player? Right now he's less valuable than Dwayne Bowe
At least there's still a chance he could be reinstated, but I'm not holding my breath.
