    Thats not what he said was it ?

     

    Yes.

     

    "During training camp last season, he started to feel “a charley horse” on either side of his lower abdominal area. “It started happening during practices and throughout the day, but it would go away,” he said. “During the season, it started getting worse.”

    I swear though... If between the injuries and Brady and.... The jets or Dolphins win the division..... I don't like to knee jerk but man I'd want to burn the whole thing down if we missed that opportunity

     

    Nah. 12 Brady games will be enough to win the division again. They'll probably pull 2 wins out of their butts somehow in the first four games then go 10-2 with the inflation offender. 12-4 will win the division by at least two games.

    Is WebMD a reliable source? http://www.webmd.com/pain-management/news/20100830/marijuana-relieves-chronic-pain-research-show How about the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12185373

    Well said. The "rules" argument doesn't work either, the forward pass used to be illegal too. It's time for a real, open thought on the issue.

     

     

    Its a sham that its a schedule 1 narcotic which by definition means it has no medicinal value. Yet meth and cocaine are schedule 2 which are incredibly dangerous and addictive and the use of them can cause irreversible harm and death. The Federal government still sends medical marijuana to 3 people every single month for medicinal purposes. The Federal government holds medical patents on the use of cannabis for medical reasons. The Federal government discovered it attacked cancer cells under Gerald Fords administration.

     

    This nonsense that its a CSA 1 controlled substance is as false as it comes. It not only has medicinal applications, been proven in countless studies and research world wide, but also been proven to be acknowledged by the US Federal Govt in a multitude of documents, patents, programs, etc.

     

    The ONLY reason its still a CSA1 scheduled drug is because of special interest groups holding it down as long as they can because of Billions of dollars at risks to those groups.

     

    The NFL should no longer ban the use of it period because athletes both prefer and are safer utilizing cannabis then harmful prescription medications. It should be the choice of the athlete as it is not a performance enhancer on the field. The NFL can still enforce penalties or suspensions to those who get into legal trouble through the use of cannabis all they want, meaning they illegally acquired it or did something stupid while using it like drive and get in a car accident...no different than how they enforce incidents related to alcohol.

     

    All that being said, its still not allowed by the NFL and athletes need to abide by what is required of them and what the current rules are. Even if the rule is absolutely stupid, out dated, and factually wrong...its still the rule. Just like its STUPID they can't celebrate in the end zone without a penalty, its still the rule and they have to abide by such rules until they are changed. So if Marcell did something stupid in regards to cannabis, then shame on him, not the NFL. But the NFL still NEEDS to change their policy and the players want the change.

     

    But guys...it's illegal! That's enough proof to show that it's evil and should remain criminalized for all of eternity!!!

    A "family member" ? Oh for cripe's sake - if Dareus was a dime-a-dozen player he would be cut faster than you could say "Don't let the door hit you in the ass, fam."

     

    Family member my butt.

    I'm sure the details of the guaranteed money was not overlooked. MD's agents consciously advocated for that language, and perhaps were willing to take less money to have it purely guaranteed. The Bills bought it hook, line and sinker.

     

    Less money? How could he have possibly been given more money than he got? He's not an elite franchise quarterback.

     

    Hell, many don't even consider him to be a Top 10 defensive lineman.

    For those who think the NFL policy of suspending players for weed is dumb, here's my two cents. And I say this with the full knowledge that more "well informed" individuals will correct my "misconceptions" about pot...

     

    Is pot legal? In some places, yes. In some circumstances, yes.

     

    Is pot harmful? In most cases, usually not. In some cases, yes.

     

    Does smoking pot lead to poor choices? In some cases, yes. Could those poor choices be harmful to yourself or others, yes.

     

    Does the desire to smoke pot lead to poor choices? Yes. I'm not talking about the chemical effects of the drug here; I'm talking about the apparently uncontrollable impulses people have when they're not high.

     

    Should the NFL relax its marijuana policy? My view is that it should not because it's consumption and the pursuit of its consumption is apparently so compelling as to make people willing to throw away $100 million opportunities. And anything that renders a person so GODFORSAKEN STUPID is not a thing I want the NFL telling my 9-year-old son or 9-month-old daughter "Sure, go to town!"

     

    Call me old-fashioned, but the self-indulgence and "I'mma get mine" ethos in our society is the reason for more of our problems than all the politicians, corporations, special interests and terrorists combined.

     

    Now get off my lawn. ;)

     

    Karlos' food addiction was so compelling as to make him willing to throw away millions of dollars of opportunities.

     

    Criminalize whatever it was that Karlos was eating! Your poor 9 year old son or 9 month old daughter depends on it!

    Is NY one of those 2 states?

     

    Stop making excuses for weed. Just because it has stoners lobbying for it to be legal does not make it right. It is also against the NFL's rules. If he has straightened his life out and got off the pot and is suspended for missing a test I sort of feel bad for him. Even if he is smoking I understand his addiction might be tough to kick but he has to look out for himself and his income. That is a lot of money to piss away so he can get his fix. That in another self is proof that pot is tough to kick.

     

    Pot isn't any more addictive than watching television or checking your Twitter on your iPhone. You're really out of touch.
