i will get a lot of heat for this, but it's more than just the money. That shit is always complicated, and i absolutely refuse to adhere to this notion that he should get punished more because it was a woman he hit.

He should get a longer suspension 'cause he knocked out a human.
I have to say, I'm not really all that excited about football season this year.
Don't know what it is. The 49ers are moving into a new stadium, they are arguably better than they were last year, especially at the WR position with Stevie Johnson and a healthy Crabtree, and a few of their draft picks from last year will be healthy enough to contribute on defense.
I think I'm just burnt out

And there it is.
It just seems to be very contradictory to everything that they have been trying to do about being a more "open" league and taking more of a harder look at the human interest side of the league, Michael Sam et al.....
And then this?
I mean even Donte Stallworth got to play in the NFL again after vehicular manslaughter, and I don't even think he was suspended.
This punishment system doesn't make any sense to me

The Josh Gordon situation is crazy. Batshit crazy. I read that the WADA limit is 150 nanograms for cannabis; the NFL's limit is 15. That is so fucking stupid, these fucking moronic ideologues and their outdated standards. You've got all of these beasts tearing each other apart, and one of the safest painkillers known to man should be used appropriately, instead of immediately getting all of these boys hooked on the hard and dangerous stuff. There's is a role for cannabis amongst the cadre of painkillers that should be explored further by the league.
Not to mention, if the technicians had labeled Gordon's A urine sample B, and his B urine sample A, he wouldn't have tested positive at all. The average of both samples from same piss is also under 15ng.
Seriously, suspension for codeine from cough syrup, pending suspension for bogus cannabis test, .09 DUI (while stressing about getting suspended for a year)... and labeled the ultimate problem child. The kid could use a fucking break, that's what I'm thinking. Not too many guys more exciting than Josh Gordon (and I could use him back on my fantasy team, too)
