Sorry everyone. He just buys too damn much, I can't afford lose him as a customer, so I hound him about all the good deals I have. This time it was a bottle of single-malt, aged scotch.

Was it LaPhroaig or Lagavulin?

How many that are still holding onto him are going to try and make a trade to all owners in your league to find out which one hasn't heard the news yet?

At the same time it is clear that troubled players like Gordon should be downgraded we should also give a slight bump to high integrity players like Larry Fitz.

If you send out trade offers to try and get someone to accept before they know the news......that such a douche move. Be prepared to watch your league dissolve. I'd prefer not to have people like that in my league. Classless.

I only ask because I saw a guy on twitter earlier ask if trading Allen Robinson for Josh Gordon was a good deal. We were all like "haven't you heard the news?" We saved him, but wonder how many wont be saved. Yes it is douchy, I agree.

Love the talent, hate the headache his off the field issues bring. I got out when the getting was good.

Traded him before last years draft in my league for Kenny Stills, the 1.08, 3.04 and 2015 1st (which turned into 1.05)... and when he was due to come back from his suspension this last year I actually had sellers remorse.. Glad I listened to my gut and dealt him, it was only a matter of time

Aboslute moron. I have to imagine guys like Beckham-Green, Blackmon, Lyerla, etc. are watching their stock plummet around the real league and fantasy leagues. Just wow on this though.

Yeah, I had that gut feeling this offseason, has a bunch of trade feelers out but was too late. Now it's a hold till 2016, because not

Ugh! I turned down TY Hilton for him right before his suspension was lifted. I feel awful now and I own him in two leagues....

Some numb nut just offered Reggie Wayne for Josh Gordon. I know his value isn't what it once was, but he's young and possible moving on to a much better situation.

EDIT: And just saw the news re his latest drug failure. Guess the offer wasn't that bad actually.

Yeah, it's called rehab. :lol: I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays another down in the league. I wouldn't have traded for him before today, because I knew today would happen. It blows my mind that people didn't see this coming. Lost in the romance of upside. I've never been high on Gordon. He had an amazing year, once, but he doesn't have the head to be consistently great. He doesn't have the passion or dedication to the game. I don't believe in chasing points, and I believe that is what everybody who traded for him post 2013 was doing. I'd try and get some sort of pick for the guy. Honestly, I think he's done. You can go down with the ship, and hope that he pulls it together, but honestly, I think if he were going to, he would have by now. He's just a grade A moron, who happens to be able to run and catch.

How do think I feel.....I turned down OBJ/late 2nd for Gordon a few weeks before his suspension was lifted. Granted OBJ had yet to really do anything at the time, but it makes me sick to my stomach looking back at it.

The main reason I didn't take it is because it was the only share of Gordon that I owned, and I bought him for a late 2nd after the DUI last summer. Felt I was playing with house money with him, so I was in a no lose situation. Well guess what? I lost anyways. lol
