Dumb kids. They never learn. The only thing we learn from history is that we don't learn from history.

A diluted sample isn't really a fail, that's bullshit. If I was that QB I'd have a lawyer on them for defamation of character if that hurt my draft spot.

I blame them. I also blame the inner circle of influence that did not guard the golden egg.

just goes to show you where this country is. I'm assuming that most were from weed and not peds. Shouldn't even be an issue, I don't even know why they test for that.

I dont think they should bother to test for weed...... but it seem pretty clear that anyone who fails one of these tests lacks the level of commitment required to succeed in the NFL.

Because it's illegal. Should they test for cocaine and heroin?

Like a poster above said, it's not a secret that they are going to test for it. If a person cannot stay clean for a month, then they probably lack the self discipline to make it in the NFL.

It may be more of a Litmus Test.

Its illegal in some places and not others. Does that make any sense? Its decriminalized in most states and medicinally approved by nearly half. Its not a PED, rather a pain reliever. These guys go through intense physical training and some are probably battling injuries. I rather have my player smoking weed than taking pain pills. Its 2014, cmon.

It's illegal in 96% of the country. Who are you or I to decide what drugs are OK to take illegally and what drugs it's not?

If these guys are that dumb and undisciplined, then maybe they shouldn't be given this once in a lifetime opportunity.

Thats not true at all. Either way its legal in two sates and medically approved in 21 with 8 states pending legislation. 17 states have decriminalized it and more are pending. It will be 100% legal in less than 10 years. For it to even be in the same class(1) as cocaine and heroin is a crime in itself.

i know right. drinking is terrible for you.

Actually, it isn't good for you, but since you don't seem like the brightest bulb around. Explain to me what drinking has to do with drug testing at the combine?
