Mark80 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 If it was legal it wouldn't compound the punishment. That's scary to think about.... It's not legal to drive under the influence of it anywhere. So it would still compound it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 http://m.sportsbusinessdaily.com/Daily/Issues/2004/01/Issue-77/Sports-Media/True-Lies-Freeman-Resigns-Indy-Post-Due-To-False-Resume.aspx? Check this link. Also don't shoot the messenger. Seriously though, he is a long way from out of the league. I'd be more than happy to make a wager on that. Signature line, screen name, you name it... I don't doubt that Jets fans feel that way about Freeman as you posted--- any perceived vitriol in my post is reserved for their (Jets fans) stupidity and certainly for Moran. What I posted regarding Freeman's byline is incontrovertibly true, regardless of whether or not he lied about graduating from the University of Delaware 11 years ago, and Moran's credentials fall woefully short. I'm not sure what the point of a wager would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love how people like to act like drugs never play a part in anything to fill their anything goes agenda. “I’m not a dope fiend. I can say no. I just chose not to,” Richardson said. “I was in a depressing time in my offseason. That’s just that. It’s that simple. But there’s money on the line. My money is worth more than some weed. It is what it is.” “very strong odor” of burned marijuana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 This had nothing to do with Pot...love how people try to make giant leaps in logic to fill a different agenda. true . But burning pot was in the car. Probably trying to take the edge of the meth. and the x Thats the kind of behaviour of someone taking something very uncool. Very aggressive actions. and why the loaded gun? To protect the Bentley or were they taking the kid out target shooting? Probably just a hazing ritual kids will be kids , lets not overeact till we gather all the information. Geez you folks with all your ethics and moralities . Who is the bottom in that relationship?

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 was this discussed? Jets DE Sheldon Richardson busted for allegedly driving 143 mph, resisting arrest On Thursday, as the Jets started training camp, there was a story out of St. Louis that Richardson was clocked for allegedly driving 143 miles per hour and then resisting arrest via a high-speed chase on July 14.

Dorkington Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I doubt he's done for his career...

Just because one has a record, doesn't mean they shouldn't have opportunity to be employed. he has plenty of opportunity to be employed. He can cook fries at McDonald's, or work turning the stop/go sign on the road at a construction site, or hang off the back of a garbage truck picking up my trash. I have absolutely no simpathy for guys doing something stupid and uneccessary then losing their golden ticket/lottery ticket gig of playing a pro sport for millions. If he wants to stay in the NFL, maybe the Jets could give him a job cleaning the piss and puke from the stadium after games..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have my sympathy either, but I'm a big proponent of people doing their time, having the opportunity to learn from it, and hopefully turning things around and getting back to living life. If he still has skills, and he's not a complete asshat after his punishment, you can bet that someone in the NFL will sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 You're kidding, right? Reckless driving, fleeing from police, pot, and a TWELVE-YEAR-OLD in the car. He's done. I'm missing it too. Had he rolled the car or crashed into someone else and killed someone then yeah, I get it. But no one got hurt. I understand the seriousness of his actions and need for discipline, but never play again? That just seems crazy to me. Of course, if his AFCE career is over, I'm thrilled!

Dorkington Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I do want to clarify, I think he's a jackass for doing that, and deserves some serious jailtime. He endangered his passengers AND strangers in public. So I'm not taking it lightly. I just think it was idiocy, more than being a malicious threat to the public. Hopefully he'll learn to be a decent human being during his time in jail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaninATL Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 i think he's too talented for this to be true so the talent of the player might dictate the punishment meted out? Ask Tommy Boy how that's working out.....um, not so much. King Roger seems to be sharpening his stance after some bungled disciplinary events (aka Ray Rice). Granted a lifetime ban is not the same as 4 games for Tommy, but Rodge seems to be dropping the hammer to get some cred back with the owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 It's a friggin' plant. Alcohol is far more damaging. 100 years ago cocaine and heroin were sold in drugstores and completely legal. Funny related fact; The Netherlands where weed for both medical and recreational use is legal has one of the lowest usage figures in the world amongst it's inhabitants.

IDBillzFan Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) My favorite part of this story is this article on NFL.com where you'll read this: The news comes roughly two hours after Richardson appeared at the team's Florham Park facility to publicly address his four-game suspension for the first time. "I apologize to my teammates and the organization," he said. "I told them you don't have to worry about my name being in the news again."
