WHEN your LIVIN' IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!!!!
I heard you've been using your papers not for writing, but for rolling doobies! Classic.
is how both David Spade and Christina Applegate can't keep it together. You know something is funny when the paid actors in the scene can't keep a straight face.

my sense of the board relating to the last several posts about substances is that the abuse of pot by players from rival teams is more likely to be a sign of deep character flaws reflecting poorly on athletic programs and universities than is the enjoyment of weed by the fine fellows we follow on our own teams. And I have no problem with that.
That is how every thread comes out. It is nothing new. There might be a little favortism on the board for the Michigan boys.
This is essentially the reaction to every post about a famous person doing something dumb that doesn't seriously harm anyone else.
I had the pleasure of playing on a city league touch football team with Nicky his last year when he was academically ineligible (architecture major????) He joined our team because he was "in training" for the combines.
His routine was to sit in the car with his trainer and smoke pot for half an hour before each game. He was a gifted athlete with great hands and amazing skill for someone his size. He was my height and a hundred pounds heavier... But moved quite well...
The similarity I see is a pattern of bad decisions, and a linkage of pot and questionable work ethic. Nicki ended up drafted by the Cowboys and was their starting fullback for half of his rookie year... then he was the guy with Mark Tuinei when he died (http://archives.starbulletin.com/1999/05/11/sports/index.html)
It is certainly a stretch to equate the two, but at some point making bad decisions is rooted in a lack of ability to make good decisions. For people on the ledge, drugs seem to gently push them off in far too many cases...
