There's a bigger bust than Vernon Butler from the 2016 draft

like, literally bigger

lots of people here (myself included) were hoping this guy fell. Turns out doing synthetic marijuana and diving out of your hotel window onto a pavilion below isn't the best predictive factor for NFL success. 

Yeah that synthetic weed poo is bad news.

I’ve seen people get very hyper on weed,.. and a few that got really psycho scared,.. like schizophrenic and almost had to be hospitalized for it.

another one has developed chronic pancreatitis and other issues, painful colic, night sweats etc,.. it’s a syndrome called Cannabinoid Hyperemesis syndrome.

drugs are drugs— don’t let a love of them control reality.

just defending them is addiction talking.

AA and DA can help,..

keep in mind that just 35 years ago people were defending Tobacco the same way,.. oh it’s natural,... God given,.. natural doesn’t hurt you,.. helps you breathe and live longer ha,..

Did you miss the multiple posts pointing out that it was synthetic "marijuana" meaning that it wasn't marijuana at all?

You must be the utmost authority on this then. How do you know what happens to some people Doctor Authority and not everybody reacts differently.

You are right, everyone reacts differently.

However, the odds of him knowing multiple people who became almost "schizophrenic" because of it and/or almost got hospitalized for it is maybe .01%.  

And how would weed cause pancreatitis lol?

This is relatively uninformed.  Hyperemesis is often associated with pregnancy, when women get uncontrollable morning sickness.  The same can happen in a miniscule number of chronic marijuana users.  Which is ironic because marijuana use is often used to curb nausea in chemotherapy patients.  It has nothing to do with the symptoms you listed. 

Marijuana being linked to acute pancreatitis is interesting. However extremely rare again. Only 13 incidences have ever been confirmed.  

Comparing chronic marijuana use to chronic alcohol use, give me the marijuana. Liver disease, pancreatitis, immune suppression, and a multitude of early onset dementias including Korsakoff's and Alzheimer's.

 

Moral of the story Huddlers, never be a chronic anything user. Everything in moderation.

Were you there?  I don’t hate weed, know a lot of people that, smoke, eat, and vape it, and love it.

just saying I’ve seen others who had their lives destroyed.  The Cannabinoid Hyperemesis is a very real syndrome.

modern medical marijuana is over 200 times as strong as what people smoked at woodstock. It’s almost the difference in comparing cocaine to a coco leaf,.. weaponized.

And maybe read more than defend something just because you love it. Try reading ALL of the medical side instead of just what supports your confirmation bias.

”bullshit” is just another term for “I don’t know, don’t want to know”

    • My general take on the state of the team not going too in depth is this: Either Morgan or Canales (hard to say whether it’s the players or the system/coaching, and that goes for any team) has been responsible for considerable strides forward on D and a bit more productive offense, but it’s been a small sample size and we collapsed at the end of the year. I lean towards it being more Canales growing as a coach and building a culture of buy-in and getting the most out of players in the locker room. My reasoning for leaning there is that Morgan was part of the Fitterer stink and it’ll take him a while of sustained success in roster management to overcome that in my mind. Next year is a big year to see if that was a fluke or not. These big signings this offseason are exciting and sometimes teams can have amazing FA classes but more often than not those who spend big and “win the offseason” don’t show the results in the regular season.    As far as QB goes, in a vacuum I’m completely fine with the Pickett signing, he’s ok value for a backup and a huge improvement over Dalton. If Bryce went down there isn’t a huge drop off there and if the rest of the team builds on last year they could win games with him under center. I’m not sure the ‘85 Bears could win games with current Dalton under center. But the O is just so damn limited with Bryce and Pickett does not push him at all, he’s purely a backup. So I agree we I’d love to see a QB with some upside drafted, a guy who could actually push Bryce if/when he struggles or doesn’t improve any further. He’s improved steadily the last 2 years but it has been from arguably worst in league history to still below average. I’m not convinced he can get any better than purely average at absolute best. I hope he can man but I just don’t see it happening. And the longer we keep penciling him as starter the less confidence I have in this staff. Even with our unexpected relative success as a team last year sometimes you do have to take another step back to take a step forward, and that could mean moving on from Bryce, and temporarily going with a slightly worse player like Pickett while aggressively trying to upgrade the position and taking dart throws in the draft/free agency on upside players. I know, there wasn’t much available this offseason outside of Willis, and this draft class seems to be poor at QB. But I’d have preferred we try something and if it didn’t work and we took a step back then just keep trying until something hits. Rolling with Bryce is just delaying the inevitable and living in purgatory.    just my 2 cents, hope I’m proved wrong
    • His market value is 15.7 million. Not worth it to bring him at his age, at that price. If we were to bring in a veteran, DeAndre Hopkins is available for 2 million market value. I've said this in other threads, get Keenan Allen to play the slot. He's as good as a pass catching tight end and is market is under 7 million.
