Thank God for Charles Barkeley.
A few games before his first NFL
pre-season game, Dallas Cowboys running back-- first round draft choice and future Emmitt Smith-- Ezekiel Elliot was caught visiting a marijuana dispensary in Seattle.
Need we say that Jerry Jones,
owner of the team, was incensed. But, Charles Barkeley said it all in an
interview on a Philadelphia radio station. When asked to comment on the Elliot
situation, Barkeley said:
"That's just stupid, man. He's [Ezekiel
Elliot] got to be smarter than that. I mean, that's just stupid. It's like Ryan
Lochte, that's just stupid. Just tell the truth and apologize ?
"I'm like, c'mon man, you gotta be smarter
than that. I'm not a marijuana guy, I think I've told you, I smoked pot like
five times in my life. All it did was [make] me want to eat potato chips. It
was a waste of my time. I didn't feel no euphoria, it didn't take me to no
special place, I just said, 'Do we have any more potato chips in the state of
Alabama or Pennsylvania?'
"This guy thinks he can just walk into a
marijuana store, legal or not, it's just a bad look. Sometimes I watch sports
today, I'm like, you've got to have some common sense."
There you have it, the ultimate
purpose of marijuana: it makes you want to eat more potato chips. And while you're at it, Zeke, grow a brain.

Ig, are you channeling your inner Ares, though in a highly edited mode?

Humans do nearly unlimited stupid things that are a waste lots of time (and money). And perhaps spending $40k/year locking people up for victimless crimes stands near the very top?
