Yeah heard it on the way home from the park. I saw on twitter by Chris Russell I believe, that skins were warned he could be stupid like this. Not a big deal with me but hopeful he learns

12 game suspension!!!!! NAO!!!! Wait did he hit a woman? 4.....minute suspension and $5 fine, he will also be punished with a medal of accommodation ceremony.

Edit: Crap I forgot he was a relatively early draft pick

Honestly, just make the shit legal. So many of the players do it and can you blame them? After 3 weeks of getting you body beaten to death I really can't blame these guys. Non issue but he needs to be smarter.

Yeah you can blame them since they are well aware that it's illegal. The law sucks but it is what it is. Until it changes guys gotta be smart about it.

i partake but ....


even if it was legal, i wouldnt allow my players to do it during football season.

it shows a lack of discipline and commitment. it will make your brain foggy in the morning, it will make you eat munchies and play madden until 4 am, it will effect your short term memory to a small degree.

being 22-23 does not excuse a professional athlete from not being 100% committed to being the very best player he can be.

in the offseason or only the night after a game could i understand and justify it ... but in training camp? when you havent proven yourself to be a contributing player or teammate others can rely upon?

certainly not the end of the world but i want 52 players with a drive to excel, to eat sleep and shit football when it is football season .... and guess what?

its football season. time to put your hard hat on and earn that money and fame.

show your commitment or i will show you the GD door.

give me 52 RG3s and London Fletchers and I will show you an over-achieving team with limitless potential.

I'd change the wills to cans.

Same can be said of alcohol use which players also engage in.

It's all about responsible use in the end.

I was about to say the same thing. Alcohol use has far more hangover issues, foggy, headaches, stomach issues and not to mention way more motor skill issues while under the effects (DUI or worse...death). Interesting how society perceives things.

You're never ever going to have 52 RG3's and London Fletcher's on any roster. You're always going to have few guys that party. Come Sunday night after a game, win or a loss, guys are going to let their hair down. Hell The Hogs would pound beers after practice in a shed.
