It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The only substances that should allow for a year-long suspension are performance-enhancing stuff.This crap has got to stop. Getting suspended for a year of your career over something that has nothing to do with the game is ridiculous.
The NFLPA needs to make this one of the hills they're willing to die on in the next CBA negotiation.

I'm sympathetic to what you're saying, but most companies do have a substance policy. My company would outright fire me, for example, not just suspend me a year. Additionally, it's not like it's a surprise to the players; everyone knows what the rules are if they want to continue in this line of work.
Agree that the policy is absurd. Weed is legal in Denver, but not for the players. Same with Seattle.
The pressure on performers + the pain of playing NFL football make the players especially susceptible to it. More carrots, less sticks. it's a ridiculous policy.

Yep.Agreed with the points above, but if you are such a moron to be unable or unwilling to stop doing this ****, then my sympathy is somewhat lacking
losing a year over weed? lol
