Alright...I was told on the CBMB that we weren't allowed to speculate or some such crap. I hope we can do that here without issue.

I just find it very odd that BOTH Marion Barber and Roy Williams are out of the league. Roy was at or near the end, but Barber shouldn't have wanted to go out with that Bronco game debacle. I thought he had some left in the tank, but he WAS injury prone.

Anyway, eventually you would expect the "client list" will get leaked. Its possible there are so many influential players and/or coaches or who knows on that list that it got successfully buried, but it was reported that he had a group of NFL player clients for marijuana and cocaine.

It only makes sense that those players are more likely to come from the Bears and the Cowboys. Since Roy and Marion played for both of those teams, and they disappeared from the league, and were his friends... I mean ok.

But who else? Did Urlacher ever do cocaine with Paris Hilton? Or Jenny McCarthy? Will he be on the list? (not the first linebacker in history)
Briggs for both? Tillman for weed? (that guy plays in the zone) Webb for weed. (from texas and slow) hahaha.

Personally I think players should be allowed to smoke weed, for pain management, as a positive alternative to alcohol, and in general the war on drugs should be let go and give way to personal choice and responsibility. Cocaine is a borderline drug I wouldn't do, but I also don't want to judge people who like it or find it beneficial. Different minds have different strengths, and other than being highly highly addictive and needing more to do less and being expensive, I mean to each his own. Sam Hurd was a nice guy and shouldn't go to prison, but people are dieing in mexico and south america because of our war on drugs. and Mexican nationals who come into this country illegally and grow billions in profit in weed in our national forests are not taxed.

Americans clearly like weed. The war is stupid!! So....FREE SAM HURD!! but I cringe when I think about this list coming out mid season.

The OP
Roy has some type of trucking business that he runs. He is out of football because he sucks.. idk trucking company, maybe it's a secret shipping business.

Marian had legitimate reasons to retire... I mean both if they signed anywhere would be for vet minimum? For Roy I could see doing that but idk if any team would even want him at that level. Barber had already battled plenty of injuries and always has had some issues with media, I doubt he wanted to keep going for it especially if he is going to put his body in more harms way for less than a mil.

hmmmm....you changed your response. But...while Hurd tried to move a large ammount of cocaine, he was trying to go downright GODFATHER with the weed industry. Some quick calculations led me to believe he was trying to move 25% of the weed in the city of chicago, and that was just getting started. Anyway, it was enough for hundreds of thousands of people.

Weed kills because the laws in this country make it worth killing for. But that is like saying money kills. Humans kill for resources.

If the big tobacco companies are the ones holding this up, similar to Native Americans blocking the legalization of sports betting within the u.s., I think they are making a mistake. They aren't competing markets, and the clients who smoke will still smoke or smoke more after legalization. They should be getting ready to sell spliffs, (which I am against but another story), or be in both markets. idk, its complicated but we should be taxing such a highly traded commodity.


Abolition? What are the benefits of having weed illegal? Name one?!

I too believe some names could come out that would hurt some other players, unless a plea deal gets done. He won't have to drag anybody down with him.

I do have to question the idea of bringing weed to Chicago from the south (TexMex), from coke guys no less...wtf? That seems Special person.

Seriously. He should have gotten his weed from Canada. Better product and don't have to deal with the psychotic Mexican cartels.

Something about a Canadian cartel sounds less than terrifying. Sorry RTB ;)

Drugs should be legal. As long as there is a surgeon general warning on the box. No worse than having alcohol legal. Plus it would be a huge boost to the economy.

I'm getting the sneaky suspicion that this thread really isn't about Sam Hurd.

Moved this to The Bar since it's more about drugs than football. That being said if this goes to hell I'm gonna close it.

I don't believe it s so much big tobacco as it is pharmaceutical companys... and pharmaceutical company's are know to have their hands in a lot of politicians pockets... Therefore the rich get richer and on and on..

We could virtually make our national debt disappear over night by taxing a great cash crop, stop the mexican mafia's choke hold on the mexican people and the profits gained and lives lost, and tell our youth the truth about weed- it is far less dangerous than alcohol and tobacco and is less addictive than nicotine or caffiene.
