Three of the possible top ten picks in the NFL draft admitted to smoking pot during scouting combine interviews, according to Pro Football Weekly.
Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson, Clemson DE Gaines Adams and Louisville DT Amobi Okoye, according to multiple sources who have watched the interviews, all admitted to using marijuana.
Wow this is a gigantic scandal. I'm totally shocked. Can you even believe that star college athletes would do an illegal drug that's available to everyone all over the country? I heard pot's a gateway drug to harder stuff, like cigarettes and alcohol. Surely these players have no moral character.
On the other hand, character schmaracter. If Calvin Johnson played for my favorite team, he could punch my mother in my face and I'd give him a high five and say "Bitch had it coming. By the way, nice TD catch last week." Then I'd invite him to my place for some old-fashioned hooker-killin'. I'd even take care of the bodies for him. I'm just that kind of guy.

if i’ve said it once, i’ve said it a thousand times…
much like cancer and rape, dead hooker jokes are ALWAYS funny
Yet another reason Mr. Johnson is just destined to be a Raider.
I’m surprised they admitted it!
PS, the only thing fair Brady smokes is fools like you on the fball field.
“Three of the possible top ten picks in the NFL draft admitted to smoking pot during scouting combine interviews…”
Wait, they smoked weed DURING their interviews? Or they admitted–during their interviews–that they had smoked weed in the past?
Because if the NFL allowed three guys to just light up blunts during combine interviews, that would be pretty sweet.
This means Johnson is going to slip right? Maybe all the way to the 12th pick?
And poles, jimmy. Don’t forget the poles.
Where’s Weed For Speed for this one? I expect a comment from him dammit. Just because he’s got commenting privileges at Deadspin doesn’t mean he should forget where he came from.
Calvin Johnson can jump really HIGH.
Get it?
Did someone call my name?
And the only thing weed is a gateway drug to is the munchies.
That can still have disastrous results.
Your lede should read, “Three of the possible top ten picks in the NFL draft told the truth.”
NFL Scout: “Calvin, I’m afraid I have some bad news… your stock is dropping”
C.Johnson: “that’s a bummer man – mind if I do a ‘j’?”
Reefer Madness is a hilarious movie
Ray Lewis would kill for some good weed.
Maybe if Mario Williams got high he wouldn’t drive so fast. (P.S. I know he gets high, but that didn’t work for my “joke.”
whats the big deal, it’s not like weed is illegal or anything……what?..oh right?…fuck you baby boomers, you failed, failed miserably..
I am sure there are some that are amazed NFL players smoke pot…and to that, I am very curious what they thought the whizzanator was actually for..
DeBerg…speaking of Whizzinator and football players smoking weed, I took bong rips with Onterrio Smith in college. We had the same pusher of the Oregon chron for a while and crossed paths once.
Is their weed insured against fire by Esurance?
I bet they realized something was up when Ricky Williams was at the combine and they realized it wasn’t 1998.
Drugs are bad, mmmkay? Drugs ruin lives. Like Calvin Johnson, who smoked weed once, and is now going to be drafted into the NFL, and will sign a multi-million-dollar contract. Drugs are bad.
That’s it! That’s the theme to “Funkytown”!
Off topic, but why is it that we never read stories about NFL players doing PCP and destroying an entire village in a drug fueled rampage? Just ONCE I’d like to read about something like that.
PCP is the funniest drug there is.
