Talk about wasted talent...

Former Redskin Fred Davis wanted for domestic violence assault - DC News FOX 5 DC WTTG

^^ I've heard Davis talk and read some of his comments. From what I can tell, he is, quite literally, dumber than dirt.

I really hadn't thought about that side of it, but if the NFLPA wouldn't agree to year-long or indefinite suspensions for a player like Rice who copped out of aggravated assault charges, why would they turn around and allow those long suspensions for something minor like smoking weed? I don't know... I think the NFL could have done more.

Because that's what they negotiated in the CBA. There is a set policy for drugs and PEDs, not so much one of behavior off the field. (assaults/DUIs/etc) That's why they can argue for a year long suspension for a player beating his girl, but they don't argue for a player caught 4 times smoking weed.

Either that or he just doesn't care. Or maybe both

Im not trying to disagree with you. Im in the legalize but regulate/tax it camp. Although I do believe it has to be age regulated as well, meaning a minimum of 21 to buy it just like alcohol.

As for the union, most of them have always said that the courts need to be the main body punishing for these things. And I cant say that I disagree with them. If Ray Rice shouldnt be playing football in game 3 this season, it absolutely does mean that the courts failed. If professional athletes are in jail for these offenses, then they arent playing professional sports.

What a tough, mature guy. This dude reaches into a planted flower box to grab dirt and throw at this chick at a resturant?....who does that? I dont think thats herbals, that might be drank in the dome or crack

CrustyRedskin · 07-24-2014, 04:15 PM

Ray Rice gets two game suspension for fist to head contact on his gf. Brandon Meriweather gets two game suspension for multiple helmet to helmets. Wth? ??

ArtMonkDrillz · 07-24-2014, 06:06 PM

Is there any chance the NFL goes back on this and actually hits Rice harder? So far I've seen articles about this suspension on ESPN, Yahoo, & Bleacher Report and all of them agree that this is a joke.

Andre Johnson shows up for Houston Texans camp - NFL.com

Just for the sake of this guy, I'm hoping the Texans make the playoffs. I think if Foster's back and the O-line is solid, especially at RT, they'll at least make a push.
