Re: Josh Gordon
Its just a red flag to me that after all the chances he has had he doesn't show up for camp. That just doesn't sound at all like a team player.

Re: Josh Gordon
I for one would give him a chance. Weed is not that big a problem to me but you have to follow the rules and to be able to make that kind of money just give it up for a while and make those paychecks. Not sure what is going on with Meredith or Smith. Not sure what is going on with Bree's He really had a bad game. This team really knows how to stink it up offense was horrible Cleveland has a better defense than advertised but a horrible job by the "O"

As far as legality, I’m positive it will become legal. What if he played for the Broncos? He’s in a state where it’s fine but he still can’t because they rather him pop prescription pills to deal with things? Like I said...I’m just not buying it. |

Re: Josh Gordon
I don't have a problem calling him if he is cut. I wouldn't trade anything for him though.
Get him in sign him and help keep him clean. As soon as he pops on a test you can him. For those of you who wouldn't sign him... INGRAM. |

Ingram's going to come back looking for that final big contract. I fully expect him to not only come back, but to ball out in the last 12 games. So in short, no extra chance for Gordon. SFIAH |

Re: Josh Gordon
Pats get him for a 5th rounder. He’ll have a career year.

Re: Josh Gordon
Yea, and for a lot of people popping a few Vicodin can give you just as big a rush as snorting a couple of rails of coke. They are without a doubt performance enhancing. It can absolutely increase your ability to focus and boost energy.
