In another uncategorical failure of the NFL drug policy, Josh Gordon has been banned for at least the 2015 regular season.
The Cleveland Browns took a flier on this guy, and this should finish it off. He failed a league test for alcohol (the substance abuse policy allows for this -- ask Brett Favre after his Vicodin speech, as he couldn't even have champagne after his team won the Super Bowl 18 years ago), and that's the third time Gordon has been banned by the league.
Gordon is now effectively banned from the NFL. He is banned one year, and must apply for reinstatement.
And the question which has to be asked, but isn't: What's more "NFL" these days? Marijuana and alcohol, or dirty hits, brawls, and beating the shit out of your spouse?
Perhaps, and not in the conventional parlance of the term, Gordon doesn't belong in the NFL.
