Listen, I won't lie and say that I haven't indulged in the smoking of weed in my day. I'll also say that, like many others, I don't believe weed is much of a health risk, certainly no more so than things like alcohol. The thing is, no matter how much many of you don't like it weed is still illegal in most of the USA and Canada. That fact renders the "he smoked weed, who gives a shit" pointless. The law does.
There are probably many laws on the books that people disagree with but the fact is they are laws, hence it makes doing those things illegal. Not to mention that employers can make their own rules as to what is acceptable behavior and what isn't.
If a person can't refrain from certain types of behavior that either the law or their employer deems unacceptable that says something about the person. If he's willing to put his millions of dollars at risk to smoke a little weed I'd say he a) has an issue with the drug and b) doesn't know how to set priorities.
Either way, the "it's only weed, who cares" defense is ridiculous.
So all the gay people living in Texas should have just, what, been celibate before then? You would have been ok with someone being fired or disciplined by their employer for being gay?
Think before you answer, because sodomy laws usually covered all non procreative sex, including heterosexual oral and anal.
If they were Catholic priests, then yes.
Marijuana is an issue not because of its legality, but because of the NFL. They don't have to test for it, but they do. They could look upon it as a very minor offense, as indeed the law does in many jurisdictions. As part of their CBA, they don't. Nobody knows that better than Gordon.
I don't think the owners care whether it's legal or not. If that was the case, they'd could simply let the legal system do its job and punish players who got caught up in it, like they do with other laws. They're afraid that players indulging will lead to their conditioning and play to suffer.
I think the bigger issue is that the NFL players are far from unified and are represented by a feeble and possibly corrupt union. That puts them at a major disadvantage in dealing with a determined and certainly corrupt legalized monopoly. While the players have negotiated the terms of their employment, it's hardly a level playing field.
What are you smoking weed right now??? (hehehe, just kidding). But seriously, you missed my point.
I was also rooting for Manziel whenever people would get on case for partying. But definitely done with both of them. Idiots.

I have dealt with addiction with family members. You are always an addict but can chose to not use and put family first. There are enough recovering addicts out there that you should know this.
Also, pot "addiction" isn't anything like alcohol, cocaine, heroin etc. You pretty much CAN choose to not use.
As I said, he's a loser. He's addicted to making bad choices, not drugs. You're addicted to stupidity.

Lets not pretend like weed is a physically addictive drug.
This is heroin or cocaine we're talking about here. This is a drug that is arguably less addictive than coffee.
Josh, how are you gonna drop dirty AND dilute at the same time? If you're gonna try to fool the drug test there are a lot better ways than trying to flush your system the day of.
Actually, he did know it was coming. Unless he thought that they wouldn't test him after he applied for reinstatement.

These pringles really are hurting me, but they do taste good. Chemicals....mmm...

It takes me about 5 minutes after eating Pringles to feel like crap. They pollute your body instantly causing all sorts of maladies. I really have to stop eating them.

Go Blue!
It's sort of amazing if you think about it. That's just a massive confluence of craziness if he was also hanging out with Manziel.
That said, I'd almost just say let the guy play in the NFL. This is a league that seems to not have much trouble letting wife beaters, perscription-drug addicts, murders, guys with multiple violent offenses to their names, and a littany of other transgressions worse than weed play. So what the hell, let Gordon slam into large men for a couple of years and make his money.
