weed stay with you a long time, 5-6 weeks can still lead to testing over the limit

SMOKING WEED IS NOT A BIG DEAL.

Chalmers and Arthur made a VERY STUPID mistake by smoking at an NBA function. Really dumb and irresponsible. In the long run, this incident will not matter unless they become repeat offenders. So as if now, situation not a big deal, just a silly mistake.

50 games was an exaggeration by wilbon to emphasize the point that the league should be firm with these violations. c'mon now.

I can understand laughing at their stupidity (might as well have smoked right in front of the organizers), but to wish Kansas would have lossed to Memphis and so on is silly. I think Arthur must have shot some of you guys in the testis.


Erm I already said in that post, that I wanted Memphis to win anyways. The fact that a bunch of morons instead won it, just adds to it. Hardly what I call "pissed off". I think you should learn to read.

The stupidest thing about this is that they decided to smoke weed at the program where they specifically tell you to take care of your body and to avoid drugs and all that. I mean come on, of all the places in the world to do it.

I do everything better high. It really helps my hand eye coordination and I always take a hit while I drive. It really makes me think clearly and makes me more aware of my surroundings. Im also typing this high. And if anything How High proves that weed makes you smarter and can help you get into Harvard.

I wanted Memphis to win it too. If CDR and Rose hit their FTs in the closing minutes I would have been $200 richer today.

My bad. You weren't pissed off. You were pissed off MORE. I bet the entire Memphis team plus Cal smoked up. Sleazy coach and an entire team seemingly pulled out of the ghetto. Not high my ass. lol

Plus Memphis was a bunch of cocky bastards. Joey Dorsey bumping into Cole Aldrich after making a play makes me sick every time I think about it. Talk about lack of sportsmanship.

Then again this has noting to do with the original topic.

No matter how much or how often you smoke, I haven't heard of anyone needing more than 30 days of staying clean to pass a piss test. Hair tests are a totally different story, but hardly anyone ever uses those since they're so expensive and much less convenient.

You read wanting Memphis to have won being "pissed off"? Interesting. And I'm not talking about the smoking weed itself. I'm talking about how much of a moron they were; As in doing it in a league-organized event. Again learn to read, it would do wonders for you

You wish they would have lossed MORE because they smoked at a league-organized event while NOT attending Kansas...Got ya.

I personally think Kansas should forfeit a scholarship or two. lol

You can continue harping on my reading comprehension. You're simply childish.

I see you still have trouble understanding.. Here is the quote you're referring to that I said in a half-joking manner:

Also makes me more sad that Memphis didn't beat Kansas


You read the words "pissed off" out of that? Great reading comprehension..I should definitely say nothing about it, despite the fact that you called me out over nothing..

Ok, by constantly repeating "you said pissed off" it's pretty obvious you have nothing left to say. You cried because dudes smoked at a business function and stated that as a reason why you wish Kansas didn't win the NCAA tournament. Childish.
