Goodell: No medical benefits from marijuana

Meanwhile, the opioid peddlers keep on successfully peddling, and addicting, and killing. Goodell's comments are idiotic, and I'm pretty sure he knows it. Music to my ears last night as the crowd in Philly repeatedly booed this clown with the relentlessness.
quote:
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell delivered a strong statement against marijuana use Friday, telling ESPN Radio that the league sees no medical benefits and adding that "it may not be healthy for the players long-term." Goodell's comments, made in an interview with ESPN's Mike & Mike in the Morning, were consistent with his previous statements. But they came amid a federal lawsuit filed by more than 1,800 former players who say they suffered long-term health problems because of improper and deceptive prescription drug-distribution practices by NFL teams.
quote:
"I think you still have to look at a lot of aspects of marijuana use," Goodell said. "Is it something that can be negative to the health of our players? "Listen, you're ingesting smoke, so that's not usually a very positive thing that people would say. It does have addictive nature. There are a lot of compounds in marijuana that may not be healthy for the players long-term. All of those things have to be considered.

What a disingenuous liar. He sounds exactly like a politician. Big pharma money will make this hypocritical arse clown say anything.

Goodell is exactly like a political business man. Not surprised he said all this shite to keep players from using the healthier option of medicine.

In fairness, after going in dry on the players in the last CBA by taking a shitload of their money and rights just so they could have a shorter OTA period and an easier training camp, you didn't think he was just going to give this away, right?
The players will get weed in the next CBA but they will pay through the nose for it.

What do you have against poppy, man? Both come from Mother Earth...?
Seriously, Goodell has the Reefer Madness schpiel down pat.

This a-hole is the worst guy in sports. He has spent his entire adult life sucking off NFL owners and past commissioners. This prick will say or lie about anything as long as 32 people get what they want. And honestly, I don't mind that but I just wish he would drop the everyman act and embrace the corporate a-hole that he is and run with it. At least I could respect that.

Best part about Patriots winning the Super Bowl was the retribution Brady got by sticking it to Goodell....Can't stand that dude!

And every day a thousand Americans are treated for opiate overdoses from a drug that can kill you.
While 0.0 are treated for Marijuana use
