    Why do I get the feeling that Romar is basically Ward Cleaver regarding this kind of shit? Like Mt. Zion Baptist, be back before midnight kind of social conservatism.

    This sucks assburgers. Why was he booted from Fresno?

    Anyone have an edumacated, yet highly speculative opinion?

    Something about turning Romar's daughter into a roast beef shish kabob with his purple throbber.

    I think Romar is more serious about running a clean program than most, but we haven't seen many kids kicked out in his tenure, and it's not like he's recruiting cerebral, lunchpail, kind of guys you'd want to date your daughters. I don't think Romar's looking for reasons to toss great players off the team. I would guess he basically had no choice with Upshaw.

    I'm not attacking your lifestyle choices, if you're concerned about that.

    I highly doubt it was for weed. When I was in school, Bob and some of the other fellas would smoke weed before games. Had to have been something more.

    I'm not sure about that. Other drugs are out of the system pretty quickly. To fail multiple drug tests, it's gotta be weed. I don't think he would get multiple chances with harder drugs.

    I'm sure there are other guys on the team that smoke, but Upshaw probably has different rules which were put in place when he transferred.

    I guess the moral of the story is always carry a bag of clean piss. You really think it's for smokin' doobies down on Montlake Cut?

    I want the time I spent reading that argument back!

    You have to choose between that and the $15 Trillion that George Bush owes you.

    It seems like Romar has a pretty stable way to handle these situations. He gives the player multiple shots to succeed, and if the player doesn't not meed the standards he's booted. For me, I like how he structures it. It's totally up to the player to handle his own shit. If he chooses to drink/smoke/etc well that's his choice. Romar isn't going to be the guy running around and covering up players issues(this isn't oregon).

    Upshaw isn't a college guy. Just go to the dleague and see if you can hang. Once there, tweed is less of an issue.
