Now aren't you guys glad the Lions DIDN'T trade for Josh Gordon?

All I kept hearing from many of you guys here on POD is that the Lions should trade for Josh Gordon, The Lions should trade for Josh Gordon! The guy's a stud! He'd look good next to Calvin. Well all that's true, but what I kept saying was the Lions should stay far away from this guy because he's one strike away from a one year ban. Low and behold, look at what's happened this offseason. Whew! Martin Mayhew resisted the temptation of trading for this highly talented but highly troubled young man. He may never get another chance in the NFL. Teams won't be able to trust he won't weaken and get high again. Such a waste of talent. There are a lot of guys like Gordon who wasted all their God given talent and ability. He threw away millions of dollars as well by being stupid. Who do you guys think was the dumbest athlete of all time who threw his career away by doing something incredibly stupid be it using drugs or something else?
