Oh please. Trade one of the best receivers in the league because he might have smoked a joint and was at a party where people were doing cocaine? That's just silliness. Don't listen to dailynews for sports reporting. That article is one of the most idiotic things I've ever seen. Actually suggesting that his contract would go from 60 mil guaranteed to 20 mil guaranteed cause he was caught partying, lol. Beckham has crazy talent and is an electric player that puts butts in seats. If they want to trade him I'd take him on the saints in a heart beat.

He is doing illegal substances and correct me If I am wrong, but the Nfl still does drug tests. Right?

If he has never tested positive before then it would just be a fine. It takes multiple violations after counseling to be suspended and the fines and other punishments are even less severe with marijuana.

Then drug test him then. If you honestly think that only a few nfl players smoke weed your out of your mind. Tons of athletes smoke weed. For partying of course but also for inflamation.

If all he was doing was smoking pot...who ****ing cares?

Smoking pot again, correct me if I am wrong is still a federal crime and illegal. Given that OBJ is an employee, he is subject to a drug test.

I heard former HOF Cris Carter say OBJ is already in the system.

Pot will soon me legal in NY. And just because Trump's right hand thug wants to restart the war on drugs doesn't make him a criminal. Get over it. It's weed.

How'd the war on drugs work out the last time? Nancy Reagan screwed the pooch..
 
I can't help but think you'd like him to be traded to NE.

He's never made a first team all-pro team and his most famous catch came in a loss to the Cowboys.

He's not even that great.

Admit it...you want Odell.....admit it......

Trump called his "right hand thug" a disgrace so I'll agree with you there. The guy should just resign.

But let's keep pushing all of the 'legal' drugs on our society ...
 
Is it a must or directive that if people screw up, employers must fire them and society must abandon and shun them? If you get popped for a DUI, should you be fired for the DUI?

So assuming he was smoking a blunt AND doing coke. Why does that mean someone has to be fired?
 
I saw the video and it was too grainy and unclear to see exact details. I'll admit there aren't many other ways to use a credit card in such a way than cutting cocaine, but he wasn't the one cutting it or even having anything to do with it. And the "blunt" in his hand could've just been a B&M. Not very likely, but I think he has plenty of plausible deniability if the video alone is to be used against him.

But in any case, he should've smashed that camera like it was a placekicker's net. How stupid it was to let himself get filmed in such a way. And how ****ty it was for that slimy camera operator to post it online.

Because regular people get fired for the same thing.

Do they? I'll be honest...I know of plenty of people that manage to keep their jobs following a drug arrest or DUI, including military folks. So you are saying there is no room for helping people when they slip up?

Not for a utility worker or a teacher

Union member Lineman...I know for a fact they have kept their job in the face of arrests for drug use. Cant speak to the teacher side. The question is why should they be fired? The consequence will come from the law side. double penalize them?

Not if your required to have a class A license
 
Employers are not responsible for enforcing stupid laws. If there is no safety issue for others, or in the case of athletics, no unfair advantage obtained, then employers (and everyone else) need to turn loose of their pearls and mind their own ****in' business.
