    Josh Gordon has been banned yet again, Jeremy Bergman of NFL.com reports.

    The Seattle Seahawks announced Monday that the wide receiver, whom they claimed off waivers in November, was suspended indefinitely for violating the NFL policies on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse.

    2 more threads and the site'll have a score of Josh Gordon threads. I lie, I only searched for ones with Gordon in the title so there are probably plenty more.

    Haha and people actually got mad when we didn't sign him . He would definitely have fit in with the SoJ thing. Probably would have got Robbie back on it too .. no thanks

    I honestly don't know what the suspension was actually for, but before this devolves into a non-sequitur discussion about pot legalization and the ridiculousness of penalizing recreational weed use in the NFL, in the here and the now, it's immaterial in the case of Josh Gordon.

    He was hanging by the only thread he was ever going to have - ever - and whatever the conditions of his employment were, as Draconian as any of us might feel they were, he blew it. No wiggle room. I'd say that makes him a Grade A jackass.

    It was for illegal sustances. Same as always. Can't quit the drugs even giving a ton of chances. I believe it was marijuana again. Guy just has so much talent but no brains.

    Uh, it was right in the first post on the thread.

    "The Seattle Seahawks announced Monday that the wide receiver, whom they claimed off waivers in November, was suspended indefinitely for violating the NFL policies on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse."

    That's the name of the policy though, doesn't specifically state what the substance he took was.

    I just find it ridiculous guys can cop 4 weeks for using PEDs and then get basically run out of the game for drinking or smoking weed.
