Datone needs to prove himself, and I think specializing in pass rush will help that. Quarless is the main one who I thought would be in jeopardy, but we're pretty thin at his position.

Bush probably screwed his chances though.

I've never tried pot, never will, not in favor of legalizing it, thus am annoyed at all the players who were busted for it this off season.

That said, Murphy is right. How do you come down on people when geography determines the legality?

Knuckleheads are knuckleheads. I would prefer we "weed" out dope heads. Yes, I know Randy Moss, Warren Sapp and people like that smoked weed and were HOF players... I just don't care for those kind of characters.

Well, why? You're comfortable getting your ratings from an ecology major from East Anglia University who graduated and went directly to work as PFF's main analyst. BTW, do you know where that university is located? Google it for a good laugh.

I'm not going to spend the time watching a play over and over. I think I'm reasonably intelligent and have a good feel for how someone is performing over the course of a season. I mean, I'm not an ecology major or anything like that, though, so be careful with what I say.

It's pretty clear their ratings aren't gospel and come to very wrong conclusions especially when you consider how they viewed EDS. It's a travesty they spent all that time and came to the completely wrong conclusion on the former Packers center.

A hearty laugh. Thank you, Kevin!

Oh, and I COMPLETELY disagree...Quarless will be a goner during cutdowns.

Drugs and alcohol are involved one way or another it seems in most crimes and accidents.
Mankind can't be trusted to regulate themselves as far as the use of either.
The world would be better off if both were done away with.
Of course I know it will never happen.

No.. so why punish those that want to have a beer, a chew, a cigarette? Do you think a law is going to stop people from obtaining and consuming either? We all know how effective drug laws are and how much money we pour into it. That doesn't even address the prison population which would explode if tobacco and Alcohol was outlawed.

Still trying to figure out the tobacco being tied to the crime study?

I have never tried weed.. but know a few that do it often. I don't notice much of a difference between the effects verses alcohol.. other than the smell.
