Randy Gregory to Apply for Reinstatement

That is a big pile of hogwash. Players get tested during OTA's and and then randomly during the season. If the majority of players used weed even for pain mamangement there would be a very large number of suspensions for the use of weed and as we all know there is usually only about 2 to 4 a year. Whether they use it for pain management or not right now it's still a banned substance. Besides any active player that needs something for pain can get it from the team doctors at any time during the year including the off season. You just want it to be the majority of players use weed for whatever reason but that's the furthest from the truth.

Yes whatever is done needs to be done for all not just those that smoke weed but there's not a lot the NFL can do without drastically changing the game and if they do they they may lose fans which will lose sponsors and then network TV deals and then it's lights out for good.
.

Recreational random drug testing is between 4/20-8/9 for players not in the drug program. They do not get tested during the season unless they are in the program.

SMH...you guys really need to get with the times. Weed is less harmful the cigarettes and liquor yet, the NFL allows it. Players have come out and said weed helps them during the rehabilitating process.

blah, blah , blah

Is he here yet?

Good luck in life.

I dont need to "get with" anything ........ I know the benefits "weed" has in recovery from workouts to health benefits ala Cancer and seizures.

But to sit here and claim these young athletes are smoking weed for pain management is disingenuous ....... 99% of them are getting high for recreational use.

So if you know the benefits of it then why are you dismissing it? 99% please. You have no idea what the percentage is. You pulled that out of your arse.

 

[zrinkill]

99% please.

See this is why no head way can be made on legalizing it ......... because people like you try to convince people that most guys are using pot for medical reasons ......... which is just ********.

So go try to make someone else believe that story ......... not gonna work with me.

Point out where I said MOST GUYS are using pot for medical reasons? You pulled that out of your arse just like you did that 99% number you threw out there.

I have a great life, 51 years old and never needed any mind numbing drug to help me through it!

Recreational random drug testing is between 4/20-8/9 for players not in the drug program. They do not get tested during the season unless they are in the program.

Players in the drug program get tested up to 10 times a month and I didn't realize that the current CBA has all players checked between 4/20 and 8/9 and if they clear that test are exempt from any further testing that season. The last CBA the NFL could test any player not in the drug program randomly any time during the season but not to exceed twice during the same season.

They say that time estimation is harder when you're high. I've heard....

Is the start date seriously 4/20...

Happy for you. Did you get your body tore up and is your brain full of holes like these NFL players?

If you fail the once yearly test you can still exit the program in 3 months if you stay clean ...... gets reset back to zero and you can smoke away for the rest of the year

If marijuana isn't addictive and failing another test comes with such great cost, how can you fail the second test?????? It is a complete lack of discipline and restraint and deserves to be punished

Just go 90 days and it is as if it never happened
