News: Demarcus Lawrence To Be Suspended For Failed Drug Test

[coult44]

I'm getting so completely sick and tired of this. If this is true--and I suspect it's what we were hearing rumors about last week from JJT, it just sucks. Heads need to start rolling on that side of the ball.

We draft RKG's, and have a coach that creates a great environment of no accountability!!!! Heads should roll, starting at the top!!!

It's for amphetamines.

Amphetamines =/= THC. Not in the least bit.

So he tested positive 4 times for amphetamines? It takes four times to get suspended.

That's even worse.

Has this been confirmed anywhere besides.... I'm sorry chat sports? Who?

 

[TheFinisher]

Lets wait to hear a confirmation of this report from a real source not some 3rd rate sports blog

No but I have a bad feeling based on anecdotal evidence that has been around.

Unless it falls under PED

 

[StarHead69]

Par for the course. Isn't it also nice that 2 of the top 3 pass-rushers in the draft are druggies as well?
Time to call in the Kraken I guess

Isnt it suppose to be 2 games?

The other news from the PED policy is that positive tests for MDMA (and other stimulants) in the offseason will fall under substance abuse. In-season tests will continue to fall under the PED policy.

The new policy punishment breaks down as follows:

2 games: Use of a diuretic or masking agent
4 games: Use of steroid, stimulant, HGH, etc
6 games: Attempt to manipulate a test

Sorry, I thought it was weed...must have flown right over that part. However, my diatribe about weed still fits...everyone says they can quit whenever they want, but none of them do, even for significant reasons.

Anyone know if Charles Haley is looking to come out of retirement?

 

[Stash]

Looks like Bosa is the pick.

Whether we like it or not!

 

[GroundZero1970]

IF this is true, cut both Gregory and Lawrence and move on because they are just flat out stupid and put themselves above the team..

I'm glad you feel this way too. I was worried we'd be getting a "calm down" post.

 

[Stash]

Bringing Hardy back equates to.....

Well, look at all the mistakes we've made. May as well make some more.

At least he might see the field. We can't even fill out an 11-man defense at this point.

That would be my question. A few hours after this breaks, if true, wouldn't one of the locals pick it up? Someone in the front office would be talking.

Unless Dallas wants it quiet to hide the fact that they are now locked in on Bosa at 4.

Well, Stephen Jones did say yesterday pass rusher was the number one priority.
