David Irving: Snoop Dogg 'Ignorant' for Backing NFL's Marijuana Policies

Former Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle David Irving, who announced his retirement from the NFL after receiving an indefinite suspension for a violation of the league's substance-abuse policy, fired back at rapper Snoop Dogg for criticism of his decision on Saturday.

In an interview with TMZ Sports, Irving called the music superstar "ignorant" over Irving's desire for marijuana to be permitted by the leagye for pain relief.

"I'm pretty sure if I could've met with Snoop and let him know exactly what I'm doing, the businesses I've set up and the things I'm doing, I'm pretty sure he would say different," Irving said.
