envirojeff Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I was listening to the radio this AM that Wayne H. is asking the NFL to cut Ricky's suspension from 4 games to two games? I would love to rear the reasoning behind this one. I've been searching for a link, but can't find one that I don't have to subscribe to.

He was out all last year right? Therefore he was actually suspended for a whole year, that is 16 games. Makes perfect sense. Just ask Gary Bettman...

MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 He should have been banned for life for admitting to using a masking agent, thereby failing hundreds of drug tests over the years. A 4-game suspension was enough of a joke, but cutting it in half to 2 would just prove to me that the NFL is fixed, or more precisely, needs to be.

Jeff 403847[/snapback] the reason is simple. it was a marijuana offense and he should have never been suspended to start with. Personally I don't think anyone should lose a job or be suspended for a mj usage. but the actual reason would be because they have not yet signed there 1st rd (#2 overall) draft pick R. brown.

Personal belief really has nothing to do with it if he broke the agreed-upon drug policy. Does anyone know if the commissioner has the power to shorten a drug suspension under the CBA? I don't think he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 The key word is "asking" I would find more fault in an owner NOT asking. Ya gotta try! Now if it said Wayne H was demanding, then yeah there would be a gripe, but that does not appear to be the case.
