Secondly, plenty of players have made a mistake and gotten past it, it’s called LIFE.

Also, if you go to the drugstore and buy a bottle of aspirin ….. and you take 12 of them at once, it will be your last headache. When have you ever heard of someone overdosing on Marijuana????? I’ll tell you…Never! Cuz it doesn’t happen that’s why. Someone wicked high may look dead but in an hour they’ll just wake up and eat everything in the kitchen…..what a world we live in folks…..I’ll leave ya with this one.

Oh the ignorance. All Alcohol taste like crap. Only alchy’s like the taste of alcohol…Now let me ask you this, how red is your face(the alcoholic look) ?

By all means employ that policy. The more high draft picks you have that are too dumb to put down the pipe, the more stars you’ll have unavailable on game day due to suspensions. Brilliant policy there, Mayhew. Way to be a leader & teach the kids! Is it any wonder Detroit looks like it does? I guess if you’re high all the time you don’t care or don’t notice. Seriously though, if Mayhew really wants to make a statement, he’ll put the Lions’ money where his mouth is. There is no rule stating the Lions can’t reimburse players for money lost during league imposed suspensions for failed drug tests. Don’t hold your breath.

Yea I’ll take weed any day and anyone who does not agree with me is very very close minded. So with that said yes I will take Janoris if he is still there because he simply is the best cover corner in the draft and we need one BAAAAAD!!!!

Does that make it a legal pain killer? Wouldn’t it be the same as a doctor giving a player a prescription for a codeine based pain killer?

By that i mean c’mon….weed….a drug?….cmon….your gonna pass on a sure thing in Janoris Jenkins because he smaokes weed. Who doesn’t? He just got caught. Look at Ricky Williams. He was never a problem with the NFL or the law but we gotta judge him because of weed?? wow, i cant believe as a society we still view weed as evil. No one ever says anything regarding a real drug in Alchohol. I guess it’s ok to be an alchoholic with all the crap that comes with it(DEATH,DUI,POISONING,VIOLENCE,STUPIDITY,ECT>) But if you smoke one hit of weed (which will come out positivein a test)..you are a danger. O’h what a stupid society we can have at times….Lets Draft a drunk instead.

Legion rich people don’t live in Detroit period. They live in Birmingham, West Bloomfield, and Bloomfield Hills. Look up the google maps there and you’ll see mansions bigger than your Walmart and lakes that look like Oceans compared to the ponds you play in.
