CBA or not players need to learn what ZERO tolerance is. Unless they come and admit a problem BEFORE the test a second pop should be a year's suspension and rehab and a 3rd pop automatic cut and banned from the game.
If I worked at a job that tested for drugs and I popped, I would be fired on the spot.
These players need to be welcomed to the real world and not babied and given passes. Tired of these million dollar pussies getting away with whatever they want. It only adds to their problems.
Look at Daryl Strawberry, Dwight Gooden, Steve Howe, and on and on and on. Keep getting passes and slaps on the wrist they have no real reason to quit and won't. You give out tough love and set examples people learn reral fast.
You do the crime you do the time.
Addiction is a problem, but sports teams have great resources to help, far better than anyone on the street can usually ever get.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
