"For the record, right now, I think someone needed to come out and say it: I think smoking pot is good for mixed martial artists. It’s a new day and age, this is, uh, the year … Fuck year is it? I don’t know, because I’ve been training and smoking pot like I should, instead of paying attention to other bullshit, which I don’t do."

Pot logic always makes me chuckle :D

Nick Diaz is one of my favorite all time.

Too busy training and smoking pot to pay attention to stupid shit like what year it is. Thats pure gold.

It’s great that knowing what year it is falls under other bullshit not worth knowing.

Worth noting that this quote is 2-3 years old.

thegarv.com has a nick diaz greatest quotes article up right now, that’s where fightlinker picked it up at. There are several of these, like:

Reporter: So Nick, would you agree your marijuana smoking has got in the way of your fight career?

Nick Diaz: "Actually, on the contrary, my fight career has gotten in the way of my marijuana smoking."

and

"See if people are gonna hate just cause I say the word motherfucker, then fuck them, I don’t have time to worry about marketing and shit, in my last fight my hair looked like shit cause all I did was train… I have other letters but i’m not that good of a reader."

To all the haters, Nick is right. Marijuana is the safest pain killer for athletes to take. As a doctor, biologist, or pharmacist. The top one’s all agree

"Because you get high all the time, you can’t find people that train all the time. But if you get high and train, you will get high and train all the time together and it will be fucking massive-takeover-smoke-weed-and-kill-people shit."
