That guy sucks. Just like you said, he just reports rumors. He also said no suspension , then said 4 games, then said 8 games, now says 10 games, said they were voting tues, then weds, then thurs, then friday. He's an ass and did this same shit when the appeal was being heard. And he was wrong on everything he reported then too.

We'll see.

So much for "done deal"...

I guess we're just picking and choosing what part of the revised policy is retro and which isn't.

That is the maddening part of the decision... it is devoid of logic.

Hey in general he needs to make better decisions and hang around better people yes but come on , this level he "failed" on is a fucking joke. Add to it that fact the B bottle tested negative and its further ignorance. Then on top all of that they now adjust the level to something that actually makes sense and he is nowhere near that level. This should be a MAXIMUM four games even if they count it as a fail. Frankly it should be thrown out.

Goodell is really all over the place in application of the league rules and policies. Hell he gave Rice two games, took heat and implement a new policy that said 6 games for a first offence and lifetime for a 2nd. Then he turned around after "he watched the video he never saw" and suspended him indefinitely on a FIRST. I am not by any means defending Rice but its a perfect example of how out of control this Nazi is. For the Gordon deal if they are reducing it to 10 games under the new rules for a fail does that not indicate they are applying the new rules to his case? If they are applying the new rules his level is below the threshold of a fail. There is simply no consistency in any of the rules and punishments being handed down by the NFL.

Gordon should have his attorney push for 4 games or less or sue. I think honestly he has simply been waiting for this all to play out before the suit if filed anyway.

I am really starting to hate Nazi Roger but luckily between Rice, Peterson and the soon to be bombshell DEA investigation in the NFL painkiller use he is fucked.

Yeah, thought it would be a good ideal to give the board a laugh since we were getting shafted so bad . . .

Oh, I didn't read that part! Too bad, I would love if one of these writers snapped.

Yes. College does count. And that has been clear the whole time. Any college player arrested, charged or dismissed for drugs or "associate behavior" enters the league with strikes and they are automatically placed in the drug program....

Again....it's the same rules for ever and not a conspiracy against JG....and you can hate them all you want, but they've been there the whole time.....

And the NEW rules which just got ratified(by the players) are gonna get him again in October when the DUI comes alive....

From the guy who's screen name means rat bastard in yiddish.

Basically it's going to be about half the season. Hopefully we are still in the hunt (/srs) by then. I sill picked him up in my fantasy league.

College was three violations between two schools, but they don't count for NFL.

NFL only has two violations that Gordon has been hit for, and he's Stage 3 because of the deal he did on the Codeine to reduce the number of weeks he'd be out.

So I say again - what are the three violations ?

EDIT :

. . . and at 10 weeks, the Browns are the ones getting shafted since his contract will be active this year . . . plus with being out 10 games, what's the point in coming back?
