Joakim Noah was busted for dope possession the day before the French Open Grand Slam Tennis Tournament starts. I know, it's not that big of deal.  Super cop found a little bit of marijuana in his pocket. You'd think the law in Gainesville would throw the young man a bone after all he did for Gator basketball.  Let him just squash & kick it in the gutter, right? I mean they did win two straight NCAA basketball titles at Florida.  It's just when I think of Joakim's Father, Yannick Noah, the first thing that comes to mind is Roland Garros. Now when I think of Joakim Noah, the first thing that comes to mind is rolling joints.

Is anyone surprised Joakim smokes dope? Come on, are you kidding me?  The only thing that surprises me about this case is he got busted with pot before Bob Marley, Jr. did. Remember the kid that played RB at Miami, FL a few years ago.  I don't ever remember him getting popped with grass, do you? The cops must take better care of athletes in Coral Gables than Gainesville. But man, those Hurricane players sure get dropped in coffins alot, don't they? 

What a bummer Joakim. Expect to take a ton of heat for this mistake, especially from the Bull's top brass but luckily none from dear old Dad. Hell, he probably scored you the weed.

The lesson here young man: Never walk on the sidewalk with a beer in your hand at 2 in the fricking morning when you have any drugs in your pocket.  Come on dude.  If you must get high and walk with a traveler, at least have your buddy carry the baggie.  You know the saying " I buy, you fly" don't you? That stuff shouldn't be in your pocket, you're in the NBA.

Come on Joakim, snap out of it.
