The fact that it was broken down into bags and he was armed screams “I’m a dealer!” The funny part was him trying to sell “I left my medical marijuana card at home”. He should try standup when he gets out. 😂 OK, I think you’re right. I put them both in the same boat, in my mind. The guys ESPN and the others will hire to be the face of their franchise has always surprised me. I FULLY believe in second chances, but Ray Lewis and the others, in MY mind, needed some more time in the shadows before being front and center. Just my opinion there. There are better options out there to represent you. He wasn't just armed which isn't a felony......he was in possession of a stolen firearm which is a felony 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can make a ton selling weed because you have a larger customer base. The new NFLPA agreement is you receive $46,000 per credited season. Previously it was $22,000 per credited season. Bradham played 9 seasons so I would say he's receiving roughly $300,000-$350,000 a year on his pension. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dean Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Just in Atlanta said: If Nigel had paid attention on the first day of Criminal School he would've learned: "Don't drive flashy cars with stolen license plates" "If you're going to carry 3.5 pounds of weed in a flashy car with stolen license plates, hide the smell" "At least get a medical marijuana card - it costs $15". "If you have to transport 3.5 pounds of smelly weed in an un-registered flashy car, and a satchel of firearms, make sure your firearms are legal" Never drive said car in Florida Your points are excellent. Just one thing. A medical card (just the card) is about $75 in Florida. But you also have to see your med marijuana doctor twice a year. For me that's about $500/year BEFORE buying any product. Still a drop in the bucket for Nigel, one would think. 1 hour ago, Bill from NYC said: Agreed. I was also thinking that it's pretty cool not to drive around stoned out on thc and kill somebody.. He must not have read your post about driving around while doing thc. Funny thing, Bill. I basically don't use THC at all during the day. My pain is worse at night, so that's my usual time and I'm normally home at night. But my doctor wants me to use it all day! Low dose, of course, but still a bit of THC. For the record, my doctor used to be the head of anesthesiology for Shand's (University of Florida) in Gainesville for years. Before that he was a pharmacist. Very well respected as a doctor. Some clowns here just pass out licenses to whomever and do little else. An appointment with my guy is a real doctor appointment. And I never drive stoned or drunk anymore. I haven't in years. I may have a small bit of THC in my system, or have one or two drinks (over the course of an hour or two), but never near the legal limit. In fact, on Sunday I was supposed to go watch the game with friends, but I didn't feel like I should drive. I woke up feeling stoned after 8 hours of sleep. Turns out I mistakenly took a double dose before going to sleep and it was still in my system. So I stayed home. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has plenty of money ( I assume) and has multiple bags ready to go. Honestly I didn't know at first he had a bunch of bags like that.

At the risk of sounding preachy, one shouldn't get high or drunk while driving just because you can get away with it. Risk to others is pretty high. Also, if Bradham was using for medical conditions, do it in the comfort of your home or other location where he could get the intended benefit while staying within applicable laws. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally do not drive high and only drive after a few drinks occasionally. Luckily my wife barely drinks and is often my designated driver. I Uber if we both plan on drinking a bunch. my point was more the “don’t break 2 laws at the same time” concept. I certainly don’t condone impaired driving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car in good working order (no lights out and such), stay within the speed limit, full stop at stop signs, etc. Funny thing is, one of the only things I was ever super organized with was drugs and drug related paraphernalia. Always put the roach clip here, always put the pipe here, etc. That way you can get to it if you need to. Fortunately nothing ever went down. Don't have to worry about that any more. Can't even believe I used to drive that way. And like your friend, I was a damn good buzzed driver. Still, not something I care to do anymore.

From my first post I can see how you may have thought I was driving around stoned. Funny thing though, I have concentrates pushing 90% THC. I use that at night for pain or sometimes for sleep. At that level, it's great medically for me. But I rarely get "high" off it. At least, not nearly the same kind of high I get from smoking just a bit of pot that typically has a THC level in the high teens (sometimes breaks 20%). I never can understand that. Two hits off a joint or pipe and I'm flying. I like that sometime with a cocktail. But that's for home use. Edibles are an entirely different beast, for me. I like to take an edible before bed, since it releases over time, it helps keep me asleep and pain free. But I have to be careful to remember what I had before going to bed. Make a mistake and the next day could be tough for me to do anything but hang out and sleep. But lower dosed edibles or vapes are decent for the daytime. A good CBD with a tiny bit of THC which together do a pretty good job with my pain. Before a Bills game, I may take two! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
