"To begin with, the NFL's threshold for THC levels is 15 nanograms per milliliter, compared to a 50 ng/ml level used by the U.S. Military and MLB, and a 150 ng/ml level used by the World Anti-Doping Agency, which oversees the Olympics. Although the NFL's level is too stringent to begin with, its testing policy is even worse."

For Gordon, the "A" bottle showed a concentration of 16 ng/ml, only one nanogram per milliliter above the limits of 15. The "B" bottle showed a concentration of 13.6 ng/ml — less than the threshold.

If the labels on his samples had been reversed he would have passed the test.


"The results, published this month in the Journal of Analytical Toxicology, gives nonsmokers with weed-using friends reason to breathe easy. The scientists found urine levels of this metabolite surpassed typically detectable levels (50 nanogram per milliliter) in only one experiment participant, and this happened during a brief window four to six hours after exposure.

Using a more sensitive test, however, which is not usually employed in the workplace, scientists could detect blood THC levels above the 20 nanogram per milliliter in several participants in the hours after exposure. But these concentrations dipped below this threshold for all participants within 24 hours, according to the study, conducted by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and elsewhere."

Ion wanna hear none of that breh. After ALL this dude has been through with drug tests and DUIs, I wouldn't even wanna see a blunt or a drink let alone consume one.


And I was wondering about this, since a lot of the Greg's on here ask "does this dude not like money?" :mindblown: But I don't even care about the money no more because if he gets his life on track he can still make a good bit of money.

But does this guy love the game? He's been taken off of the field for drugs every year since God knows when. Does he just like football or does he love football? If he loved the game and loved playing it and was fulfilling a life long dream of playing on Sundays, don't y'all think he would do whatever he had to do to stay on the field? Even if that included getting rid of life long friends that influence him to smoke or cause him to fail drug tests by letting him inhale secondhand smoke :mjlol:

But for real though, I can't imagine someone letting something as destructive and nonessential as drugs get in the way of them doing something they were overly passionate about. I don't think Earl Thomas would let something like this happen to him and we know how much he loves EVERYTHING about football.

So is there no way for these dudes to smoke weed and not get caught?
