We are losing some very entertaining players to marijauna use in the NFL. I understand the NFL has it listed on their banned substances list but so does the NBA to my knowledge and they have never suspended 1 player over it. The NFL to my knowledge is the only professional sport of the major 4 which bans the use of marijauna and suspends players over it or is testing for this substance.
The reason why so many folks have no mercy for players like Josh Gordon is because they themselves don't think smoking marijauna or testing positive for it in the first place is really that big of a deal. You don't and I'll prove it. The owner of the Colts, Jim Irsay, was caught doing far worse than anything Josh Gordon has but we treat him as a person who is sick and needs treatment for his illness.
And since the act of smoking pot is not that big of a deal and since it is being passed as legal in some states with many more lining up to put it on the ballot, shouldn't Goodell do the right thing and stop running players out of the league over this? If he really wants to protect the integrity of the shield he needs to stop allowing personal prejudice and biases keep him from doing his job.
