Deer Antler Spray???

Holographic stickers???

I'd have thought this was something cooked up by The Onion, if there wasn't an actual link to go to. Weird.

But there's a banned substance, though. Big no no, Ray.

But, then, it's not the Patriots, so nothing to see here, right?

If you're recovering from an injury like Rodney Harrison I really have a hard time coming down on these guys. I find Lewis to be a fraud and awful human being but to remain consistent I can't kill him for this. I look at all the ACL tears and how quickly players are coming back. Do people think this isn't happening with the help of banned substances? I think they're using them almost for certain and that includes Wes and Tom. I have no issue with it in those cases. It's much different than Merriman stacking 8 different steroids and HGH to gain a competitive advantage.

I do agree that the national media needs to be consistent and kill Lewis like they did Rodney.
Dr Pain and I.M. Fletcher like this.

There's only two conclusions for Patriots fans on rookies. They are either a bust or being fitted for their bust in Canton.

Doesnt the same logic apply to taping signals. Did other teams do it? Please refer to my sig. The PATS are still treated by the media as if they were the only team doing it. The same should be done to Ray Lewis.

Its not at least for now. I heard this on the radio on the HUB when I was grabbing my lunch. On my way home HUB was on comercial so I switched to EEI and they were not talking about and were talking football. Then I expected to read about it on ESPN but nothing.

Personally, I think most or at least a large number of players do it. I am sure Lewis didn't just find this guy out of the blue. Personally, I don't even care.

My only beef is the hypocrisy of the media and fans on these things. Rodney was blasted because he is a Patriot and already labeled a dirty player. Ray Ray will likely get a free pass because the media love him and the fans seem to ignore the little murder thing and think he is wonderful guy.

Yahoo article with background info on deer antler spray, what it does, what is in it, and suggestions that it is widely used:

Nobody ignores the "murder thing"--some people just realize that a person's whole life is not defined by whether his friends decide to stab someone in the middle of a brawl. Ray seems to be a mixed bag, like all other people. Oh and by the way, almost everyone in the NFL is on something illegal at one time or another, it is just more accepted than it is in baseball.

The focus on the Pats is a COMPLIMENT. If the Lions did it, no one would care. The Pats are singled out because of their long running dominance that practically every fanbase envies, and thus tries to tear them down.
