I completely disagree. This isn't a "party" issue, this is a deep psychological issue. Ricky Williams dealt with Social Anxiety Disorder and smoked, too.

Personally, if weed does it for him, good! Who in the ****ing world wants to be on Lithium, opiates, Xanax, et al, every single day of their life?

Even if his addiction is caused by some other ongoing mental problem, dude is still an addict.

To think anything otherwise is nonsense.

He was suspended in college for failed drug tests.

He has exactly 1 season out of 5 in the NFL now where he hasn't failed a drug test.

This is the textbook definition of addiction.

I know it goes against your whole "there is absolutely nothing wrong with weed" personal theory but it is what it is.
