So Prater gets suspended 4 games for drinking a beer but Ray Rice......



Laughable part is it was supposed to be a full year since he's had multiple offenses. Prater got it reduced to 4 games. Meanwhile, Gordon is about to get popped for a full year.

First my bro Josh Gordon for weed and now this bs...also Von Miller for molly last year.

None of these are performance enhancers. Screw Goodell.

I have been getting the ESPN texts about his suspension for the last few days and was trying to figure out WTF it was for.

So they were going to give him a year for drinking fricking beer?

Granted he was being watched because of a DUI, but good lord.

After reading some more it's possible that the story prater's side is putting out misconstrues what happened and he could've been hammered or might have not been cooperating with the drug program

Regardless, rice's suspension is a complete joke. Especially relative to this

Since "Slap your Mama" got axed by the NFL for promoting domestic violence, can we assume that Budweiser is about to get axed for promoting alcohol consumption?

I don't see how that's any different than minor traces of mary jane in a players system on a drug test.

Why the NFL does everything assbacks is beyond my understanding

I'm a little confused about what specifically happened. Did he have a couple of beers the day before a urine test? I thought that alcohol would clear out of your system pretty fast.

Apparently if you get a DUI, they ban you from drinking alcohol. Idk how they get away with it but it said so in a USA today article that I can't find now for some reason
