I believe that is for non performance enhancing substance abuse. Use of performance enhancers is now a 4 game automatic on first time positive and a one year on the second positive.

This Omissioner has already jeopardized the integrity of the entire league. And because he has, you were able to squeak past the Titans, instead of losing to the Browns.

I told him that he should be in the program and that it would be public which he stated the league doesnt want the PR.....Read it, laugh, discount it, delete the post, whatever. I just wanted to put it out there so that if he misses games at the beginning of the season.....my source has credence. If not, I am the same fool I was this morning.
in the media world we live in there is no way to hide anything. at some point everything comes out sooner or later. if he tested dirty again someone will report it.

Losing to the Browns? Last year, I would have taken the Browns over Tennessee anyday. You forgot to mention our win over Indy....in Indy. But I guess that was just a "squeaker" too. Back on point, the original post is illogical at best and even within its own description of details, is inplausable.

On the way he states *&(*& all over Boston, saying on the snow covered day "you guys got NOTHING in this town. No beach, no night life." So the cabbie says "We got RINGS". He got pretty quiet....


Jeff, you sure have a lot of "connections."
I think there's a position waiting for you at the Boston Herald.

There’s a position waiting for you: QB in San Diego, maybe you can take them to the bowl

Thanks, got one. He's no Brady, but he's good enough to get us there.

This might be a bombshell to some of you, but I heard through the grapevine that Merriman might be on... STEROIDS!

If Merriman was caught again, he'd be gone for the year. Not 4 games.

You don't get a start over with the league's drug policy.

Rivers? He's not that great at all.. Chargers fubared the situation by drafting him when they had Brees, who is a much better QB.
