Tuesday marked the beginning of Graham's system arbritation to determine whether the franchise tag he received from the Saints should pay him as a tight end or wide receiver for the 2014 season.

Biden on Saturday said he would refuse to legalize marijuana nationwide until research sheds further light on the substance during a town hall in Las Vegas. “The truth of the matter is, there’s not nearly been enough evidence that has been acquired as to whether or not it is a gateway drug,” the 2020 frontrunner said, according to Business Insider. “It’s a debate, and I want a lot more before I legalize it nationally....
