Punching Bag Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/its-time-for-the-no-fun-league-to-get-out-of-the-pot-policing-business/ Yes, it was collectively bargained between the league and the NFLPA. Yes, all of this is well within the league's purview. But is it really good for the NFL when fans media talking heads have to obsess over every Facebook post or periscope video or night on the town that any of their pot-smoking star players might explore? I'd listen more if author stated what rules were in place for CBS's work place including drug testing and showed he was reefer free - he rambles making not much sense sometimes making me think he partakes too much.

Punching Bag Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 No thank you. In college someone put some MJ brownies in with other treats unknown to me and I had an allergic reaction. For payback I put some Exlax brownies with some other treats making sure only person who slipped in treat got it; he spent party in bathroom.

nucci Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) If alcohol and tobacco are legal, then marijuana should be also. Less harmful and not addicting Edited July 27, 2016 by nucci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew many potheads who could not function without a butt or bong. in college a classmate was told he was going to be drug tested for a position he already interviewed for and would get when he graduated but it would be after Christmas break and could not even stop smoking over the break so he could take test. He lost a position he was trying to get his entire college career and ended up changing majors in 5th year so he would not have to deal with drug testing. He reminds me of a lot of NFL players.

Some of the highest functioning people in the world get high. It runs the gamut. Some are burnouts, some are CEO's. If you are going to test for pot, test for alcohol and nicotine.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I quit weed for 6 years, and recently started puffing again occasionally. Probably once or twice a week. I use a vaporizer now which is much healthier. Makes doing yard work fun. Also, the byproduct of the vaporizer can be made into really potent pot brownies/cookies.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Meh, the other end of that spectrum is that smoking pot has always been a prerequisite for being a loser. I'd speculate that the combination of smoking weed and coming from low SES background is a more accurate predictor of being a loser. Level of education is also a factor. I know a lot of very successful potheads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then we can spend $30B dealing with the effects of people getting "disconnected".I'd be in favor of charging each druggie a $1000 pothead license this way they can use that cash to help defer the cost of the fallout like Colorado is dealing with now.

Never had a drug test in my life, don't plan on ever having one. I have however, gotten high with two of my former CEOs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
