OT - 10 to 15 NFL players tested positive for steroids

by Taylor on Oct 24, 2008 2:42 PM CDT

Including Deuce McAllister and Will Smith of the Saints, no word yet on whether any Cowboys tested positive. This should quiet the die-hard football fans who've been screaming that steroids was only a problem in baseball.

To fill in the 75 word limit, anyone want to place odds on how long before Goodell is called to testify in front of Congress?

I still need two more words...Screw Flanders!

they tested positive for water pills, which are often used as a masking agent.

No way!

I refuse to believe the NFL has a drug problem. All those guys have 375 lbs of pure muscle from just working out hard

working out

and drinking milk and eating wheaties!

I hate listening to all the NFL fans bashing MLB because of roids. Really?

Fuck 'em all!

Kick them out of the game, strip all their numbers out of the record books, make no mention of their names ever again! And, let’s throw those fuckers in jail for using steriods too!

I am so offended by this, I can’t even stand it. This cheating in the NFL could rip apart the fabric of America! What about the history of the game?

If Jerrah ever signs one of the steriod freaks I will boycott the Cowboys forever!

Who cares?

I say do everything we can to ensure that they are minimized (as best as possible) for the future of the game, but let’s stop ranting and realize that performance enhancers have been part of pro sports for as long as most of us can remember and some of the greatest players and records that we hold dear have been influenced by them.

Let’s get over it, learn how to better enforce it and move on.
