Bump. Some theories have stated that Blackmon may be possible to apply for reinstatement 1 year from the anniversary date of his last "episode", which was 7/24/14. If they are right, and he is ready, we could hear about an application in the next couple days. There is the other issue of whether he is ready. But I still am intrigued to see if we learn that he is applying for reinstatement.

Well it would be cool to hear some rumors at least pop up on friday... if not something worth while.

Hmmmm, let me think. Play in the NFL and make millions of dollars doing something I'm really good at or try to scrape by the rest of my life working odd jobs. Life is full of tough decisions.

But there's drugs, booze and twinkies involved. Makes the decision that much harder..

@schadjoe: Mike Gundy on Justin Blackmon: “I think of him at least once a month. It’s just a heart-breaker for me. He’s trying to do better.”

Hopes he can play

Quote:I believe he's technically eligible to apply now, but a condition of reinstatement is a minimum one year in full compliance of the league's Substance Abuse Program. This includes arrests and/or convictions for any criminal activity.  The marijuana bust last July 24th essentially reset the time-clock and the plea bargain on November 20th may have done so again.


Then don't forget he will have game suspensions because he was suspended indefinitely(until he passed multiple undisclosed pee test without missing any) he will have to sit out games and it is my recollection he has already served 4 game suspension in 2012 before violating substance abuse policy again and suspended indefinately. Then after that he got pulled over and weed was found in his car.I do not know if the next level of a year suspension would be considered as time served for past 2 years even though he got caught again and violated substance abuse policy. Glad he at least lost weight. That is one step in right direction but somehow I don't think he will ever play again.

The guy is done. All for a little bit of weed and booze. All things considered, Blackmon seems like a decent guy. Funny how he will never play again but a sociopath like Pac Man Jones gets to have a career.

Its time to move on from the denial stage and onto the acceptance stage.

So when he IS back on the field, and succesful, i might add, what will all these nay sayers say then?


probably nothing

We won't say anything. But we will turn our alarm clock off because that means we've been dreaming.

 

Nay sayers? You mean people that don't think a guy who has played 4 games the last two seasons will be back? More like realists.

Honestly I've given up on him now. He's just wasting a spot for a perfectly good jersey # now.

Is this the most viewed and also most posted forum thread ever. Sad if it is but it does show wasted talent interest of Blackmon.

Not even close. There were some epic Tebow threads years ago.
