I included Josh Gordon. Ricky Williams did many years ago, and it arguably ruined his career. He was a massive bust, and a large part of his criticism is work ethic and passion for the game.Not the argument.
And you're wrong again. Every player on my list and more have admitted to playing high. Ricky Williams never played high? Josh Gordon never played high? That's two right there. There are NBA players on record saying the majority of the league plays high.
These are all examples of players who excelled while playing high.
It damages your theory that Aaron Rodgers would suck playing high - I mean - maybe he would but it didn't hurt any of those other players.
I never once said any of them took it as a performance enhancer. I simply proved your "this is flat out incorrect" comment wrong with a long list of players who excelled in pro sports while playing high. If you still don't believe me, look it up yourself. It's not hard to find.
Do I think marijuana will be deemed a performance enhancer one day? Sure. It takes away pain and heals you and allows you to perform at a higher level than without it when your hurt, injured and tired.
I've seen it used to heal people coming off life threatening surgery. It certainly enhanced their recovery and performance during physical therapy.
My opinion based on my experience. Don't let it bother you so much.
Again, you never provided a list of players who played while high. Maybe 1-2 of the people you mention did, and they didn't play high because it enhanced their performance. You said you "know it is a performance enhancer" yet you can't prove it whatsoever.
Prove that it's a performance enhancer. Simple as that. Your statement saying this is what brought us to where we are. Either prove that pot is a performance enhancer or pipe down (no pun intended), because you're just wasting time at this point.
