"Over fifty known carcinogens have been identified in cannabis smoke.[36] These include nitrosamines, reactive aldehydes, and polycylic hydrocarbons, including benz[a]pyrene.[37] Marijuana smoke was listed as a cancer agent in California in 2009.[38] A study by the British Lung Foundation published in 2012 identifies cannabis smoke as a carcinogen and also finds awareness of the danger is low compared with the high awareness of the dangers of smoking tobacco particularly among younger users."
It is totally carcinogenic.The bar for getting listed as a cancer agent in California is notoriously low. They rely heavily on "linked to" pseudoscience to come to the conclusion that almost EVERYTHING is a "cancer causing agent". It's a meme that petting kittens and being kind to the elderly is a cancer causing agent in California.

Scary thing is that most people who use harder drugs such as heroin always come back to the fact that they started with marijuana which led them to want to take stronger drugs. If marijuana is a gateway drug and we are in the beginning stages of it being legalized probably in many states what does this say about future drug issues in the upcoming years? Just like alcohol they are not legalizing it because of its benefits but the governments are legalizing it for the riches brought to the economy. The all mighty dollar.
"Scary thing is that" people react with knee jerk emotions to things that confirm their biases. It's correlation, not causation. People with addictive personalities just would have started with something else if weed didn't exist. That's like saying we should ban Tylenol because science men say 100% of heroin users have at some point also used Tylenol. Beware the intellectual scams that are the phrases "linked to" and "consistent with". You can find that posting on fan forums is "linked to" puppy murder if you twist some numbers and sprinkle in some weasel words.
https://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/research-reports/marijuana/marijuana-gateway-drug
...These findings are consistent with the idea of marijuana as a "gateway drug." However, the majority of people who use marijuana do not go on to use other, "harder" substances. Also, cross-sensitization is not unique to marijuana. Alcohol and nicotine also prime the brain for a heightened response to other drugs52 and are, like marijuana, also typically used before a person progresses to other, more harmful substances.
It is important to note that other factors besides biological mechanisms, such as a person’s social environment, are also critical in a person’s risk for drug use. An alternative to the gateway-drug hypothesis is that people who are more vulnerable to drug-taking are simply more likely to start with readily available substances such as marijuana, tobacco, or alcohol, and their subsequent social interactions with others who use drugs increases their chances of trying other drugs. Further research is needed to explore this question.

There's an argument that Barkley became a blocker after the pass as he stood between the ball carrier and the defender. You don't have to face the defender to be a blocker.
That argument would be false. QB is a protected position and don't suddenly become a blocker just because they don't have the ball anymore. They have to then go out of their way to go ACTUALLY BLOCK for someone to become a blocker.
Feel free to look up the actual rules.

Take note of the parts about "clearly out of the play" and "when in doubt, call roughing", and then tell me again if you think any ref in the game wouldn't call a penalty on someone clotheslining a QB from behind who is out of the play and not attempting to block.

Only if they run him. I just found out that he didn't have a single carry in the 4th QTR. *****in' Daboll. Run Frank 'til he pukes, already!

I'm really curious where you "just found out" that false info and why you're so quick to believe things that aren't true.

The headline and article are really misleading. It had nothing to do with surge pricing, or the beers being charged that amount in any fashion. The idiot just straight up stole the money from them under the guise of being the vendor. He swiped their card through a personal card reader (presumably on his phone) rather than the supplied one. The customer got tipped off immediately by their card provider contacting them about the suspicious transaction.

Every time I see one of these threads pop up I imagine someone saying "I'll take Mahomes, your private jet, and a couple of those cheerleaders off your hands, and in return I'll generously offer a conditional 2025 7th round pick. Yes, yes I know I am a saint. You're welcome."

what is Petermans Record as a starter again? Another Troll thread. Man they were waiting for this game.
troll has been reported again this is what his 5th thread like this in 12 hours
4th straight anti-Allen thread within 24 hours and 5th straight negative thread overall. I reported him as well. Clear agenda with this clown.

Bojo didn't make the decision to leave rushers completely unblocked on his blocked punt and shank. It's ridiculous to put those on him.
Kept having only 3 blockers on 4 rushers with the 4th just running free untouched. Yeah cut Bojo for that...

They aren't even comparable hits Stevie Wonder.
Blatant helmet to helmet shots that knock a player out of a game aren't comparable? I'm not saying they are identical (hence why I'm only calling for a short suspension, like 1 or 2 games), but to be a condescending ***** and say they're not even comparable is a bit much.

You guys do realize the Burfict hit was way worse and he has a reputation right?
Yeah and a season long suspension for Burfict would still be way worse than an ejection for Jones and a short suspension.

Bills D is legit! Top 3 in the league and kept the Bills in this game to the end.
Pats D is also legit and IMO won the game for the Patriots with the 5 picks.
all and all Bills fans should be optimistic for the future and I hope the Bills stay focused and don’t have a down game next week against a pretty good Titans team.
A game in which you can literally assemble a top 10 list of blown calls that aided the Pats (and we did in another thread), automatically disqualifies it from being a "good game". Non ejection, out of bounds INT not being overturned, blatant grounding, illegally vaulting the line, non call on roughing the passer for Allen getting slapped in the face, phantom holds, ETC ECT ETC get outta here with that pandering good game *****.

All they are showing on NFL network is the Burfict hit. Even waited for the Bills game review and they didn't even show the Allen hit. This whole ***** league is corrupt as hell. In 5 years this will be the WWE with pre determined outcomes.
I'm expecting a slap on the hand type fine with no suspension.
The league actually said at least part of the reason Jones wasn't ejected was because Allen "turned into" the hit or some nonsense like that, blaming the victim. I don't think they watched the same play I did. Allen was going straight and had no control over the hit when he was unnecessarily lit the F up.

If this hit doesn't result in a lifetime ban for this habitual offender then the NFL is a joke
He actually plans to...now I can't decide if this makes me want to laugh or puke...APPEAL the suspension. Because he's such a good boy and would never do that on purpose, he swears. He's just chronically misunderstood, with terrible luck. I swear there were banana peels he slipped on for all those plays and he didn't mean to hit them like that!

Any attempt to be "hard" and get revenge against the Patriots is going to result in game killing retaliation penalties and maybe even ejections/suspensions. For crying out loud, Pats D-linemen are TAUGHT to throw their hands in the air if they get beat on a run because they know the refs will throw a flag if they do. You don't think they will eject a Bills player for responding against Brady like that or even Jones? Gotta be extra careful when the refs are in the pocket of the team owner who is on the officiating committee, and the league's golden boy QB.

I haven't seen a replay since Sunday. I could be misremembering, but I thought he grabbed it, but didn't really pull one way or the other.
Either way we're both pretty much agreeing. Thanks for the clarification I guess
From what I saw it kind of looked like a skidding slap across the face, the flat of his fingers dragging across it without gripping. But yeah, 15 yard penalty either way.

I also said Allen was scrambling, so he becomes a runner in terms of hit to the head (I'm pretty sure that's the case). Now had he thrown the ball and then the guy hit his head, it would be a penalty, but he wasn't a passer anymore at the time of that, and the guy didn't grab the face mask, good no call
He wasn't out of the pocket or past the line scrimmage, still a passer. Even if he leaves the pocket...
"When the passer goes outside the pocket area and either continues moving with the ball (without attempting to advance the ball as a runner) or throws while on the run, he loses the protection of the one-step rule provided for in (a) above, and the protection against a low hit provided for in (e) above, but he remains covered by all the other special protections afforded to a passer in the pocket (b, c, d, and f), as well as the regular unnecessary roughness rules applicable to all player positions."
...other special protections i.e. hits to the head. Scrambling to avoid pressure doesn't make him a "runner" unless it is clear he is trying specifically to ADVANCE the ball as a runner.
8 minutes ago, Ol Dirty B said:It was a clear face mask man.
No, it was a clear roughing the passer. Facemask includes actual grabbing of the mask, not just making contact with it. Kind of like illegal hands to the face re: linemen.

3 is just ridiculous; the replay guy doesn't even know his own rules. The spotting of the ball at the 2 on Brown's 2nd and goal catch was absolutely absurd and simply had to be purposeful. It should have been inside the 1.
Ah now I remember there was also a bad spot.
3 hours ago, matter2003 said:How about the holding call on Dawkins to offset the personal foul on Allen which was 20 yards behind the play and consisted of Dawkins "trapping" the player on the ground and not letting him up...thats not holding.
Add them to the list. Almost literally up to a top 10 list of specific (non) calls that aided the Pats in this game alone. I haven't even counted the vaulting the line on the missed field goal as I haven't yet checked that replay to see if he was running forward when it happened or if he pushed off another player to do it. If you count that and the "not really illegal just scummy" Brian Bilichick and Friend having to be kicked off the field by McD during pre-game, that's a full top 10 list.

Right, but you can see how the ref behind the play may genuinely see his head getting hit? Plus he's in the pocket. That would be a missed call, but 90% of the time a ref sees it from that angle and it looks like that, there is actual contact on the head, which is flat out illegal to tap a qb on the head.
Allen was scrambling and the defensive player never actually grabbed onto his facemask. Completely different and the right call imo. Would Brady have gotten that call? Maybe, don't really know, but this example isn't analogous really at all.
That said, I'm glad you posted it, it definitely furthers the convo, just not sure it proves what you are hoping it would.
You seem to contradict yourself here. The edge of a pinky finger grazing Brady's mask = good call for roughing the passer, but Allen getting clearly slapped across the face doesn't count because he didn't grab the facemask? Facemask is a different penalty from roughing the passer. You don't have to grab the mask to be called for roughing. You say yourself that it is flatly illegal to make contact to the head of a QB but ignore OBVIOUS contact to Allen's head.

No it wasn’t you don’t have s clue what you are talking about.
Yeah when you can almost do a top 10 list of missed calls just benefiting the Pats, I wouldn't call that a well officiated game. Especially when some of those calls are so egregious or game changing.
*edit*
Just 5 off the top of my head...
1. No ejection for the hit on Allen.
2. Brady's intentional groundings, suspiciously the game following Brady complaining to refs about being called for grounding.
3. INT standing upon review despite receiver being in contact with ball out of bounds.
4. Phantom holding call against the Bills just because the Pats' D-lineman throws his hands in the air when getting beat on a run (announcers even commented on how they are taught to do that to draw penalties).
5. Pats O-linemen of backups getting no holding penalties vs dominant Bills D-line the game following Brady complains on Twitter about the number of holding penalties. Hell, the lack of holding calls on the Pats could be a list of its own.
Bonus #6, no roughing the passer from Allen getting slapped across the face. Brady gets that call 10/10 times as shown by calls being made when his face isn't even hit.
