    From Wiki
    On December 18, 2013, the NFL erroneously reported Browner was facing another suspension for again violating the NFL's performance enhancing drug rules. The suspension was later changed to reflect a substance abuse issue related to missing drug tests during the time Browner was undrafted by an NFL team, while playing football in the CFL, and prior to the Seahawks contract.[4][5] On March 4, 2014, Browner announced via Twitter that he had been reinstated by the NFL and that he would drop a planned suit. However, a report indicates that he may have to sit out a few games.[


    This sounds weird to me if this is correct. He was suspended for missing NFL drug tests while he was playing in Canada?

    how can somebody understand you when you are literally using words that mean different things?

    homophones arent interchangeable in writing

    You can't talk about anything unless you speak correctly.

    It also should be "that's". You lend yourself more credibility if you know how to speak English, which is what we all use here.

    and clearly im not talking about every nuance of proper grammar here. i rarely ever use apostrophes on here for instance. but there is a line between informality and not using the correct words.

    Oh yeah? Prove it.

    http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/writer...e-curious-case-of-brandon-browners-suspension

    "Browner was tested roughly 200 times while back in the league, but did not have a positive result until very recently, when he had a small amount of marijuana in his system, according to a source. However, had he not been escalated to Stage 3 for his missed tests when out of the NFL -- if he was in Stage 2, for instance -- two years of clean tests would have be enough to get him out of the program entirely."

    He's not a roider.

    Summary:

    Drug test requests were sent to an address he was no longer living at and while he wasn't in the NFL. Because he missed drug tests, while playing in an entirely different league, the NFL moved him into Stage 3 of their drug program, quite unfairly.

    The league didn't tell him or the Seahawks he was even in the program until 8 months AFTER he rejoined the NFL (He played in the CFL from 2006 til 2010). He popped hot for a very small amount of marijuana and due to being in Stage 3, the league attempted to suspend him indefinitely, when it was actually his first offense.
