Bell and the rapper

[sandfan]

I've read a number of articles stating that Bell is hanging around a recording studio set up by a rapper.  I'm not stating this will lead to drug use and a suspension but the possibility seems all too real to ignore.  If he fails a drug test he won't be much help this season.  Perhaps that possibility was the best reason, along with his salary demands, to not franchise him and let him set his value in the league and enjoy the draft choices he would bring.

He's a great player but not worth the drama or money in my view.
