    Oh I don't sympathize with him, but I don't think he should be banned for a year for smoking weed, either.

    It's because he's had multiple offenses, and the NFL punishes repeat offenders more.

    I agree he should be suspended, just not for a year. That said,
    ESPN wrote:
    The legal team for Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon will argue in a hearing Friday that its client has disputed test results that were caused from secondhand marijuana smoke, according to sources.

    Gordon is appealing the NFL's imposition of a yearlong suspension for a positive test for marijuana.

    Gordon's legal team will argue that the positive tests are so marginal that they show uncertainty as to whether the test results were truly positive, and even if so, were the result of exposure to secondhand smoke, according to sources familiar with the case.

    if his best defense is "it totally wasn't me who was smoking weed, my friends did, I just breathed it and thus I'm the victim"...see you in 2015, Gordon. And please be smarter.

    Did you read the rest of the article? Two test samples with one below and one above the threshold makes his story plausible and certainly worth appealing.

    I prefer the deadspin link, as deadspin doesn't make nearly a billion dollars as a direct result of a partnership with the NFL.

    I imagine it's definitely possible too. I know I've gotten pretty fucking stoned from just hanging out with people who were smoking.

    Of course, if I knew I had to worry about random drug testing at my job I wouldn't hang out with those people but you know...

    I was going to call my team "Blake Carrington" but figured nobody actually watched Dynasty and the joke would be completely lost.

    So now I'm sitting at the team edit screen trying to think of something.

    I bet only half of it is guaranteed

    a Pro-Bowl LT at 23 is probably worth some kind of payoff

    hopefully he won't be blocking for Tony "4th Quarter INT" Romo much longer

    maybe it's an "anywhere but here" thing

    From what I've seen over the last few days, it's pretty much this. The situation they're having with sharing the stadium with the Athletics is a clusterfuck that neither team likes dealing with anymore, and the Raiders clause with the place ends after this season. Wherever they go would be temporary at best until they get their own stadium, but so far the only real options posed for the temporary stay are San Antonio (the most open in terms of both sides being fine with it if [big if] it happens) and San Francisco (the most likely, but a clusterfuck in itself). And the alternative is staying at a shitty stadium where the plumbing keeps backing up, making the stadium literally shitty.

    Mark Davis is basically doing a Kim Jong-un and following his father's pattern. He's threatening to leave Oakland so that they can steal more taxpayer money.

    That's really the long and short of it.

    The NFL just uses LA as a threat to get what they want and need out of a given city or fan base

    If they ever do put a team there they will lose a big negotiating chip

    i personally feel like the most likely thing to happen would be for the raiders to move to santa clara and share a stadium with the niners. would it be a pain in the ass? yes. would it be WAY LESS of a pain in the ass than dealing with oakland coliseum and scheduling around the a's games? yes.

    besides, FUCK texas. i'd still be a raiders fan if they moved, but texas? come on man, you're the raiders! you're so california you shit raybans and medical marijuana prescriptions!

    the city of oakland sure as SHIT aint gonna build a new stadium, on that we can all agree, but PLEASE don't move to san antonio

    They aren't moving to Santa Clara. They had their chance on that and they blew it.
