Grasping for straws: Randy Gregory

He's being tested constantly now and other than trollboy Rynie trying to get us to talk about his board and making up nonsense, Gregory hasn't been had an issue at all this offseason. He failed his last test last season.

He's being tested weekly now and THC stays in the system for 4 weeks. He's doing the right thing now and the longer that persists the more likely it is to continue. Kids definitely instill additional feelings of responsibility but he was already doing better.

FWIW, hit the ". . ." under the tweet and click embed, then copy the string that pops up. Then go to your post and click on the film "media" icon two to the right of the smilies icon and paste it in the popup. Click accept and voila:

 
I have my doubts that he will ever be a productive player for us but I wish him the best with his baby.

Or you can just copy the time/date link on the tweet itself and paste that. The software here will do the rest for you on the original posting.
 
Dude could probly be a decent player and maybe get that second contract, but doesn't look like it. I'd be surprised if he doesn't test positive again soon.

Maybe becoming a parent will push him to change his act.

Grasping for straws....I know, but still.



Dude. He doesn't have an "act."

He has an illness that for most of his life he's treated with weed.

I'm sick of people on this board treating mental illness like it is some character flaw. Get educated.
 
If he thinks the stress of football is enough to drive him to drug use, wait until he has to be a parent, waking up every hour, having poop come at you from every conceivable angle, and having no clue how to stop the crying.
 
So the responsible thing to do is treat your mental illness with weed???

Obviously it's not the "responsible thing to do", but it's called "mental illness" for a reason. Realizing that professional help is needed is not the easiest, which is why self-medicating is so prevalent. I, myself, have general anxiety disorder, so I'm intimately familiar with the struggles that can arise.

Weed helps alot of my friends with PTSD. Its not for me, but if it helps them better then seroquel then so be it

You can only hope he gets it now.

I think Randy has intelligent and responsible parents who would be aware of any mental illness with regard to their son over these years, using since 2011 according to Randy.

Further, Randy has the intelligence to seek professional treatment and the following refutes your entire post on the matter:

"That's something I've definitely been working on and something I can definitely fix," Gregory told ESPN Radio last Friday (via The Dallas Morning News). "I'm 22 years old but I think I carry myself real well and I think I need to carry myself a little bit better as far as decision-making goes.

"I think a lot of people are getting tied up in the weed and think it's just a weed problem. I don't think it's a weed problem. I think it's decision making. I think I'm immature. I'm definitely working on that. I want to prove everyone wrong and I want to do it with this team. I think this is the best team I can do that with."

"We should be able to take it upon ourselves and to have enough character to not do it. At the time, I did not. I really didn't."

"At the end of the day, it was my fault. I was being selfish. I was being stubborn. I felt like I could do things my way and it would work. And it didn't work."

Time to grow up!
