Pot coming "in five years" to a team near you?


top dawg

Recommended Posts

An anonymous NFL GM is estimating that somewhere within five years, the league will allow weed.

I am somewhat skeptical, as the league seems hypersensitive to public pressure, and I could also see goody two-shoes congressmen trying to be a hindrance. But, I am all for it, not just for the NFL, but for everyone.

Free weed!

Now I don't smoke, but I don't see how you booze can be legal, and pot can't. I am sure that Goodell would earn some brownie points (maybe even the kind that Bacarri Rambo ate) if he gets the NFL to allow pot.

As of now, I guess teams will continue feigning public disappointment and/or outrage.

It's so stupid that guys careers get ruined over this. So many players do it and nobody in the NFL really cares.

 

The current policy isn't "don't smoke weed", it's "don't get caught" which is just retarded.

 

Not to mention them giving out codeine like candy and injecting pain killers like it's nothing.  The Lynch story was very telling.

I agree.

It's incredibly stupid that morons are throwing away millions just to get high.

    • Also, just for clarity, is this thread meant for general discussion of Bryce Young, or discussion of General Bryce Young?  
    • The word I feel most comfortable using as a descriptor is "inconsistent". Haven't really seen anyone disagree with that. Consistency being one of the things I value most in a player, that makes me lean toward moving on. But he does still have both time and opportunity to prove otherwise. Mind you, having a streaky quarterback isn't exactly a new thing in Charlotte (you could argue it's been the norm). Delhomme was notorious for starting slow but finishing strong. He could sadly also find hos way into ruts that were difficult to crawl out of. Newton, on the other hand, was often known to start hot but fade late (the vast majority of the 2015 season followed that pattern) though it could be argued that was a team pattern as much as it was Cam's.  There are definitely some fans for whom this is always going to be a bridge too far. (or too short) Realistically, it's not impossible that he could still have a good career even with those issues. It's a damn sight more difficult, though. And arguably, less likely.
    • Oh, I did, and they weren't based in emotions either. Granted, characterizing them that way gives you an easy out to avoid responding to them. Similar tactic to dismissing the other guy's points with "nah, you didn't really watch the games" which saves you having to debate what he said. Strikes me as a kinda lazy way to go, but hey both elements are still back there if you feel up to trying later.
