So his argument is he hung around with enough people illegally smoking that it caused him to have a positive test.


Depending on where the people were smoking, it might not have been illegal.

wait whats the point of testing B if it doesn't matter?

this sounds like BS but i don't understand. Is there a lesser number for the B sample?

I think it just has to show up in the other sample.

Good point. If sample A was lower than the threshold but B was higher, do they just ignore the positive test?

do they take them at the same time? it doesn't make sense how one could come back to different than the other.

or he only had enough of a buddy's pee for one jar, and just crossed his fingers it was A

To test positive for marijuana based off of second hand smoke alone, Josh Gordon would have to be exposed in a hot box for at least 4 hours to obtain the threshold amount. When marijuana smoke is exhaled it loses 99% of its thc because thc gets absorbed in the lungs. THC is what shows up on drug tests.

THC is the most concentrated in the beginning and ending sections of the urine stream.

If he did A right away (rookie move) it would be slightly more concentrated, and if he took B from the middle it would be less. This could be the reason for the difference.

It sounds like there is no set A and B sample. There are two samples, and whichever one is sampled first is the A sample.

Right, but there was a 50/50 chance that the A sample was taken first aka at the beginning of the stream.

Everyone knows you're not supposed to start until mid-stream Josh!

If we all agree that it's a dumb rule why don't we get rid of the rule. Everyone boycott the NFL call the commissioner and make it happen.

So any chance, regardless of appeal, Big Brother Goodell just says frick it, only like a two-game suspension to make amends for fricking up Ray Rice situation?
