Your employer has rules. There are also laws to follow.

If you abide by them you have your job and you stay out of legal trouble. If you ignore them because you think you're above them or they're rules you disagree with, prepare for the consequences.

Fred Davis has already gotten many more chances than many of us would have received in our own jobs...a company would probably fire someone who is on drugs, sleeps on the clock and misses as many days as he reports to work. He's blown his chance at having his dream job. I don't understand why so many people want to defend this slacker and screw-up. I guess they just want that type of behavior to be acceptable so they can do the same without being accountable for their actions.
I'm not sure anyone is defending him. I certainly wouldn't defend the bonehead, but I tend to feel like the sleeping on the job is the worse offense then smoking some pot on his own time. I think most others would agree that he is an idiot, but that the rules are useless, and that in some cases (not necessarily this one) it could lead to loosing out on some great talent for something really benign.

Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

Mike Shanahan should invite Fred Davis over, they both have plenty of free time now. And it's legal in Denver

We actually want rape, dog killing, and bringing guns to clubs to be acceptable as well - they're all rules so they should be treated the same.

The point is that all rules aren't created equally. He should be punished, but a ban from the game for smoking some pot is a bit much. Someone with the talent of a Fred Davis is a little bit harder to replace in his field of work than many of us are in ours.

Weed is legal in some places, just not the NFL but a player can have a beer but not a smoke ?

Fred is now submitting his application to work in one of the marijuana distribution centers in Colorado.
With Fred's cash stash he might be looking into opening one..

Here's how I imagine it would go:

Mike: "Would you like to smoke some legal marijuana Fred? It's becoming quite fashionable out here, you know. The wife picked up these his and hers crystal bongs when she went shopping in Aspen last weekend. You can use hers. She's out buying some more "shit" right now. Can you believe that people actually call it "shit"? Well, anyways I'm starting to like it a lot. My favorite brands are Mile High and Super Bowl. Go ahead Fred, take a "hit" and put on some tunes while I get us a couple of Coors.

Fred (to himself): What the **** was that? He must be trippin'. He knows I can't be smokin' that shit right now. I was just gonna ask him for some help findin' a job with another team. I got to get outta this place!
