Stupid post. regardless of anyone's feelings on pot you are A) defending an athlete breaking the law, period. B) well aware of Bubba's standards. 2 Quote
UNDBIZ Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Right or not, pot is illegal right now. As such, the players have to be smarter about it. 2 Quote

I rather have players tossing a few brews back because it is socially acceptable and when someone is 21, it's legal. I was poking the pro pot guys that argued with me. Sorry Cratter....... 2 Quote

Not disagreeing, It's illegal, but the laws are changing and if it was across the river in Minnesota basically a "speeding ticket" iirc. Just pointing what likely happened wouldn't have been "illegal" in some states (or possibly a few years from now in ND) and they wouldn't have been arrested. Interesting times ahead. I don't think the punishment should be severe, but what that may be Idk. Doesn't mean I agree with them breaking the law or team rules. 1 Quote

I hope it's just a small issue that we can get past. 1 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Did this just happen? Or could this be the reason Meindel is no longer on the team? Quote

Hawkster Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 I hope Bubba doesn't just let this slide by with a one game suspension A slap on the wrist will just mean more of the same. Guys that can't follow the rules need to be booted or the infection just continues to spread. 1 Quote

Happens again, well then there is a decision to make. 7 Quote

UND-FB-FAN Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Suspend them both for 1 or 2 games. Very unfortunate but necessary. If it happens again, they're done. Quote
