@Los216 should have taken my bet.

If you ask the question "why hasn't Josh Gordon applied for reinstatement", it is difficult to construct an explanation that doesn't make him look bad.

He doesn't have an agent.

He doesn't have an agent.

Psh, i know a guy looking for employment.

 

[The Human Q-Tip]

He doesn't have an agent.

Then that begs the question of why he doesn't have an agent if he wants to get reinstated.

Because not having an agent makes him look...bad.

Judging by his actions the last few years, are we sure he "really" wants to play football?

No, we are not.

You'd think that if he was so eager to get back to playing, there'd be someone out there willing to play agent.

It's not that simple. If it were any other player finding an agent wouldn't be as tricky. Since he is technically under contract with the team he would probably want to know his status upon return. If he gets cut he can get a new deal for different money.

That excuse doesn't make a lick of sense. That's the exact same situation as when he got the boot last year, and it's the exact same situation he was in when he applied in March 2017 for reinstatement, but was rejected.

Why was someone willing to submit Gordon's reinstatement application in March, but not in September? What changed?

Gordon either 1) has not put sufficient effort into getting a new agent, or 2) he cannot find any agent willing to representing him. Those are the only two alternatives.

And both alternatives make him look bad.

But if you ask the question "Why is Josh Gordon in Cleveland this week?" it's difficult to come up with an answer that doesn't include he and his team actively working towards his impending reinstatement.

Maybe Cleveland is where his most reliable weed dealer is located?

No, we are not.

There's someone banking on his return. Someone is floating his private workouts & his flights & all that. I'm not sure Josh Gordon wants to play football, but I know for certain that he's in need of money & is in debt with people helping him get back into the league.

EDIT: Difficult but not impossible. Sounds like he might be in town for court regarding a paternity situation.

I was going to guess that he was visiting @Los216 .

Hey, look, noted drug user used drugs!

Dude was using coke, codeine and marijuana.

Hopefully he turns his life around. It wont be in the NFL though.

 

[Soda]

Someone has to be floating him. Appears to be Bron's people..
