YoloinOhio Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Ack! @AllbrightNFL: Josh Gordon has now not gone any calendar year since the seventh grade without failing a drug test... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 It'll be about 1 season in 3 years, and zero strikes left. He'll be lucky to not violate between now and reinstatement Excellent point. Here it is @AlexSinclairNFL: @BDiggs7 If you have a DWI/DUI conviction, then alcohol becomes an illegal test substance. Only for players with convictions. That sucks. I understand why that's a rule, but it still sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 He failed his test due to alcohol. 99% of Bills fans would fail this test. Had to be on a no substance allowed type deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swnybillsfan Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 this is rather troubling. if this guy is constantly making these horrible life decisions while in the NFL, what kind of choices will he be making when he doesn't have a job in the league? this young man apparently has problems on top of his issues.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I hope this guy can get his life straight before he ends up killing himself. He's cost himself millions of dollars and, likely, a promising career. A real shame.His career is fine if he can fix his demons. Hopefully he understands this and uses this year as a wake up. He needs help, his friends probably aren't his friends. Needs new surroundings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 What a loser. He deserves to not see the field again. Get your act together. All the talent in the world and you waste it. What a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on a really bad path, transferred colleges and hung out with people I would have considered "boring" before. Just finished getting my masters a month ago. Heard most of those guys didn't graduate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I don't see the tragic piece. Everyone says pot isn't addictive and your job says you will not smoke it. Period. It's not tragic he's just an idiot. Except its not weed, its booze, which is much more addictive and destructive. The kid needs help, but if he wont accept it what can ya do but sit back and watch him throw his life away? Tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 he has been told this repeatedly per the Browns. How many chances can he get? Exactly. The only person that can help him is himself. And he clearly isn't changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's cost himself millions of dollars and, likely, a promising career. A real shame. having a drink isn't necessarily life threatening. No report he was driving under the influence. Basically, since he had a dui in the past, any alcohol positive test is a suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many chances can he get?When you have a set of skills someone needs you get as many chances as you want until those skills deteriorate.

No joke. I had one roommate that had a Spanish final at noon. Got so wasted the night before he missed it and didn't graduate. His mom was so pissed and told him he had to pay for the final 3 credits, he refused. Works at a gas station now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
