He's got some tools which is why we took the chance on him but let's be honest he's not going to be with the team very long. It's only a matter of time before he tests positive a 3rd time. If he doesn't play well he'll be gone before he ever gets the chance to test positive a 3rd time. I doubt he'll be very effective when he comes back because he's missed too many games and has had too much going on outside of football plus he has little talent around him. Our DL looks about as weak as I can ever remember it. A young player like Gregory needs some help around them and with most eyes on him it's not going to be easy for him.

Yet again you show your character by always being negative. Regardless of if it turns out true or not.

No.

The NFL never announced a 10 game suspension, there was just rampant speculation about it following reports Randy Gregory failed another test.

Gregory evidently missed a test when he left the treatment center for a weekend, missing a test can count the same as failing a test, but not absolutely. If it appeared Gregory was avoiding being tested, that would be bad, but a valid excuse and/or appearing to do well in the treatment center could go in Randy's favor.

The Medical Director is given a lot of leeway in these cases.

Rehab where they let you out for the weekend? Sounds like a prescription for trouble.

The amount of rehab he does is dependent on his suspension? That's crazy. One should have nothing to do with the other.

I think it is because he didnt fail another test after the 4 game suspension, he missed the next test due to being in rehab? I wonder how close together they will test though and cant remember the time line but THC stays in your system somewhere around 6 weeks.

I would like to state for the record...that Mary Jane use does not constitute 'demons'....

It has never been implicated in causing one violent crime and has many health benefits.

Now....it does constitute 'stupidity' to keep doing it when your dictatorial company you work for restricts it's use but not pain meds.....which are addictive and kill thousands each year..

The OP puts this up and gets 31 likes, then circles back and adds "unconfirmed". I LOVE it, sheer genius.

I'm gonna start one "Tom Landry resurrected to coach Dallas Cowboys; Jerry Jones exchanges places with him".

Are there people here who pay much attention "Likes"?

I know I don't. Is there a reason to?

even if he only gets 4 games, what are the odds that he is in shape? or that he wont suffer some type of soft tissue injury like a hammy or groin? i agree with your overall analysis.

Just like that Von Miller guy.
