  Actually, a well sourced rumor would be better...then I would be the only one who knows. So, if you got info, POST IT! lol

  I took Gordon in the 12th round in my draft. I figure, 8-13 games of Gordon is worth much more than I would've otherwise found in the 12th round lol

  Took him in the 8th. I was set everywhere but TE by then, and knew I could wait on one at that point as the top ones were gone.

  Browns sources are baffled as to why Josh Gordon ruling has taken so long and frustrated over where it could leave them and Gordon. If a year-long suspension is announced now, Gordon would miss all of next summer's training camp under the policy. Browns sources said there would be an extreme amount of frustration in the organization over that ruling and why it has taken so long to hand down.

  It is getting rediculous.
  That is why I think it is a severly reduced sentence from the 1 year he could get. No way the NFL drags it out this long to fuck the browns that bad.

  Dustin Fox is hearing rumblings it isn't going to be good for the Browns and they rightfully so are going to be extremely pissed.

  or the league could be sending a message with his appeal and fucking the browns in the process. A year suspension means a year and dont you dare, especially with your track record, try and appeal it.

  Josh Gordon - WR - Browns
  
  Josh Gordon's one-year suspension for violations of the NFL's substance abuse policy has been upheld on appeal.

  Un fucking real.
  
  FUck the NFL

  I'd like to hear the NFL answer questions about this. But they won't... They do what they want.

  This fucking long for that bullshit? WTF?
• raiderbuck

  Got an alert on my phone that he's gone for the year
• Dr. KnOiTaLL

  

  This screws the Browns for next year as well because they took so long. Gordon can't go to camp next year.
• IggyPride00

  

  Way to go Farmer. Fucking Piece of shit was too cool to address the receiver position because you don't alter the draft plan.
  
  I feel bad for Johnny right now.

  Not necessarily. He is being permitted to apply for reinstatement after the 2014 season ends.
• Heretic

  

  As someone who's been on the "Roger GODell is a piece of shit" wagon for a few years, all I can say is that I hope someone just fucking blasts him for taking forever to make a decision. It basically just comes off as a power play, like "If I pass judgment on you and you try to fight it, I'll both fuck you and your team over because I fucking can!"

  This is what will happen, unless he goes full Justin Blackmon in the meantime.

  But it's not like he's going to listen regardless of how loud it's said. He does what he wants because he's a power tripping shitbag
  
  That being said, the players fucked themselves to end the last lockout, as they basically dropped all of the issues they had with the Commissioner having too much power out of desperation to make a deal

  Time to sue the nfl

  Ridiculous. Guy punches his wife on camera, suspended 2 games. Gordon barely fails a test for WEED and is suspended the whole season.
  
  The NFL deserves what it gets for the backlash.
• IggyPride00

  

  Adam Schefter was just rubbing it in that not only was Rice only given 2 games, but he will be back in time for week 3 when the Ravens face the Browns who have to play the whole year without Gordon.
• IggyPride00

  

  Is the DUI Gordon was picked up on going to have any further impact on his suspension? Could he get more time added on to the year once that works its way through the system?
• vball10set

  Unbelievable...it's a good thing I drafted Andrew Hawkins to complete my team last night instead of going with Gordon (calling it "wishful drafting")...sucks big time though.

  Chances this gets taken to court?

  But for real, such bullshit, I'd be livid. I thought for sure it would get reduced after they waited so long. Been saying it since he took over....Fuck Goodell!!!
