After much deliberation the judge has nominated Josh Gordon for the ice bucket challenge:

And still we wait for the NFL. Some think the longer we wait, the better it is for Josh Gordon.

The 22 day delay could make it easier for Josh Gordon to get an injunction:

More discussion:

"I'd like to apologize to my teammates, coaches, the Cleveland Browns organization and our fans," Gordon said in the statement. "I am very disappointed that the NFL and its hearing office didn't exercise better discretion and judgment in my case. I would like to sincerely thank the people who have been incredibly supportive of me during this challenging time, including my family, my agent, my union, my legal team, and the Cleveland Browns staff."

Andrew Brandt:

While technically a year suspension, NFL will usually grant reinstatement before training camp if it sees progress/rehab/etc.

There were lawyers. RT @ChrisMarvel Why the hesitancy on the decision? What was being discussed?

Schefter:

Browns WR Josh Gordon can ask for reinstatement after 2014 season. Determination made then about training camp 2015.

Albert Breer:

... Gordon's legal team will evaluate the full decision and decide how to proceed on that front.

Ian Rapoport:

Browns argued to be able to keep Josh Gordon around the facility while he’s suspended. They’ve wanted to help him. No word if it’ll happen

Breer:

Having talked to people who know Josh Gordon, there's a feeling his self-esteem issues are the overriding problem, moreso than the drugs.

Rapoport:

No settlement talks too place for a potentially shortened suspension for Josh Gordon, I’m told. So it was always a year or nothing.

Josh Gordon COULD sue the NFL, but should he?

Let us take a moment.

Our Gord, who aren't on the field
Joshua be thy name
Thy playing time has come
Thy agreement shall be done
On the field as it is in fantasy heaven
Give us this week our weekly PPRs
and forgive us our duds
as we forgive those who started studs against us
and lead us not into the Sacko
but into the Championship
For thine is the speed, and the route running,
and hands of our Gordon.
Amen.

Thank you soccerperson for this, source is link above:

|--------------------------We called upon a prophet----------------------------|
|-------------------One necessary for these trying times---------------------|
|---------------The holy one was unable to answer our cries---------------|
|-----------------for he was exiled by the ruling overlords------------------|
|-----------He lay in a dormant state waiting out his sentence------------|
|--------------------For twelve long weeks we stood by----------------------|
|---------------as a season of war broke out across the land---------------|
|---------------Amongst the turmoil whole armies crumbled---------------|
|-------------------------Others rose up in defiance----------------------------|
|---------------creating a stir amidst those in the federation---------------|
|----------Some sought refuge, calling out the redeemer's name---------|
|--------------But the prophet remained silent, biding his time------------|
|-----------Our patience was tried yet we knew it would pay off----------|
|----------------And now more than ever we need our savior---------------|
|------On the seventeenth day of the eleventh month, he awakens------|
|----------as banishment lifts against the wishes of the council-----------|
|---------------For the time of Gordon's reckoning is upon us---------------|
|---------------------------The prophet has risen--------------------------------|

Josh Gordon has risen.

Q: Over the course of a calendar year, Aldon Smith got a DUI, was charged with three felony counts of owning illegal assault weapons, was accused of firing a shotgun AT guests at his own party, and made a bomb threat directly to a TSA agent at an airport. His suspension was one less game than Josh Gordon’s suspension for smoking pot. God Bless America.—Corry, South Portland, ME
