    He flunked a drug teat at the Combine for pot.A test he HAD to know was coming! I think he has more "priority, immaturity, stupidity" issues than drug issues. While I haven't smoked pot in many, many years, I wouldn't pretend that someone who does had "drug issues". IF your very livelihood depends on NOT smoking (and his does), then I would NOT hesitate to say you have "priority, immaturity, stupidity" issues...........

    poor decision making skills...... not good for a DB..... especially for one who's numbers dropped significantly from the previous season. He played with a better cast in 2010 and had to be The Man in 2011, and failed in that role.

    What a terrible/weak leap in logic. One of the most asinine posts I've ever read.

    Randy Moss, Michael Irvin, Ricky Williams and millions of other Americans that are enourmously succesful and make good decisions have smoked weed before. Maybe you r be ing sarcastic. If so, nicely done. If not...(walks away from keyboard slowly and quietly)...

    The post was not asinine and your reply was wholly illogical. You rebutted a statement that JH has poor decisionmaking by stating that successful people have overcome bad decisionmaking. That's illogical. Your point does not rebut anything.

    Now, if you think that failing a drug test that you know is coming is not evidence of poor decisionmaking, I'll just shake my head and smile.

    However, I would add that if you are going to insult a poster's intelligence, at least do them the courtesy of reading and understanding their post, and then responding to the post in a logical manner. Adding the tired "walks away from keyboard..." only makes it look worse for you.

    I suspect the Giants just didn't walk away from the keyboard with Hosley. Probably a pretty intense "listen up, young man" talk. During an ESPN interview, Mike Tomlin gave a pretty good description of the talk the Steelers gave to Vontaze Burfict when he came off their board.

    Off topic, but if there is a better football coach in the world than Mike Tomlin, I don't know his name.

    How many of them flunked the combine drug test? None of those guys did. It was asinine on Hosley's part. He was very lucky to not have dropped too badly.

    Are you saying that Randy Moss, Michael Irvin, and Ricky Williams are among the millions of Americans that smoke weed and are enormously successful and make good decisions?

    If you were making a "bad decision" hall of fame, those guys would be first ballot guys.
    More than 80% of the Lounge sorts by Last Post. You should, too.
