Ocity, it's an illegal drug if it's taken with no prescription.

That's why it's called a "controlled substance"

"possession of a controlled substance" is the same charge if you have Adderal with no prescription or bathtub meth.

No, you don't get a suspension for a first offense.

Then it must be because Hali is a decent human being and Miller is a thug that needs a Broncos payroll chaperone to try and keep him out of prison.

The real question is why isn't Von getting suspended for a whole year.

First offense is 4
Second offense is 8
Third is a whole year.

Von has tested positive for 3 banned substances and on top of that tried to cheat the system.

The guy should be thanking the league for not taking out the trash.

Maybe I missed it, but I don't remember him having previous issues. I'd happily eat crow if you can show me otherwise.

"Von should be suspended for a season."

"Why did Hali get a reduced suspension?"

"Yeah, but Von should be suspended for a season."

I'm just stating that the drug itself isn't illegal, it's the act of having the drug without proper paperwork. It's the same with codeine.

Obviously the guy is a real piece of work, and I for know what he was taking or got caught with.

I guess it's more of a legality issue I was arguing instead of specifically miller so sorry to interrupt the convo. Carry on

Failed drug tests that don't result in suspensions almost never get publicized. However, it is league policy that you don't get suspended for your first failed drug test. Therefore, Hali failed more than one drug test, yet missed only one game.

Hardly the same thing, but continue acting like the tool you are.

What have I missed?

Maybe MagicHef can move in to continue scrubbing his tainted balls.

Clearly none of us know all the details so are left to speculate.

What is your speculation as to why Hali got a break while Miller got treated like a career offender?

Hali failed 1 test and owned up to it and showed remorse.

Miller has failed AT LEAST 3 tests, tried to cheat the system, is involved with multiple murders, doesnt show up for court, said "he did nothing wrong" and has been in the NFL drug program since he was a rookie.

The two situations aren't even remotely similar.

And the good thing about illegal drugs is the customers are druggies and they can't tell the difference or go to the authorities when ripped off.

Other times, drugs are cut to combine effects. Meth is added to mdma to add an energy boost to the euphoria. Again, there's a financial incentive of adding cheap meth to expensive mdma. Think of it as watering down good whiskey with cheaper whiskey.

Thanks. Fascinating stuff.

It's an illegal drug, o.

The only way it's legal is if you have a prescription.

Why are you defending it?

It's no different than any other illegal drug.
