See Red Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Schefter is reporting a decision has been made regarding Josh Gordon's suspension. Lack of an announcement could be a result of any number of things. I'd like to think the NFL lost and they're trying to hang his DWI over his head and negotiate a 2-4 game suspension but they could very well be waiting to make an announcement with their usual late-Friday news dumps for stuff they want to fly under the radar. If he's a free agent in your fantasy league, he's worth taking a chance on before an announcement is made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 There is a call for Medical Marijuana to be legalized in the NFL, some doctors are saying it may alleviate concussion symptoms. So a Marijuana suspension could come back to haunt the league in a few years. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicageaux Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not just the football year but he's suspended all the way until this date next year. Apparently the NFL's reasoning is Gordon has enough strikes against him to warrant this. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 A six-game suspension would be without pay and the length of the penalty could increase in these cases: an employee was involved in a prior incident before joining the NFL; violence involving a weapon; choking, repeated striking, or when the act is committed against a pregnant woman; or in the presence of a child. A second-time offender may petition for reinstatement after one year but there is no assurance the petition would be granted, the letter said.I realize the need to be explicit when making rules that could be challenged in court, but something about this doesn't seem right. While a 6 game ban is certainly a serious punishment, explicitly stating that there's a finite set of actions that are worse kind of implies that a single knock out blow isn't that bad. I totally understand why they gave themselves room to increase the initial suspension and the need to spell these things out, but like I said something about it is just off.How do you prove if a child was there? Is Roger Goodell going to ask little Bobby if he saw daddy pistol whip mommy? What if the woman is freshly pregnant and doesn't know, or is just one of his side pieces and hasn't told him about it? Does he only get 6 if he can prove that he didn't know she was pregnant? Seems like a lot of things that could be challenged and lead to lenghty appeals.

sportstar1212 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I was looking at the schedule and I noticed that San Diego and Arizona play each other both tonight and next week. I know one is just preseason, but have two teams ever played each other in back-to-back weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
