OT: Bills get hit with another Suspended player

[DaBruinz]

These failed drug tests are pretty interesting. Usually they only say suspended for using PEDs (4 games) or weed (1, 4, 8 or 16 games). I just wonder what guys like Ninkovich took. I would be willing to bet everything I have, that he took something for his injury. Makes you wonder how Ray Lewis got away with that Deer Antler spray or whatever crap he was taking for the same injury Nink had. Not a conspiracy theorist, but I'm surprised Lewis wasn't suspended.

You'd be wrong. Nink's failed test came before his injury happened. He already stated that it was an OTC supplement that was tainted.. Been very forthcoming about it. Took responsibility.. That's why he's not challenging it.

If I were the NFL I wouldn't care if these guys were crackheads as long as they don't make the news.

Think about what you just said

All I'm saying is the NFL doesn't need to be looking for trouble. Test only for PEDs because they give an actual advantage to the game. Anything else, leave that up to the authorities because it'll look bad on the NFL if they don't do something (or could look bad).

Apparently he uses weed to self-medicate his Crohn's disease.

If that is true, he should get a pass. But, eff the Bills.

I understand. I haven't touched the stuff in 20 years. If it was legal I still wouldn't smoke it.

Keep in mind 50% of NFL players smoke weed for pain(and other reasons for sure)

You don't have to smoke it these days.

Who needs weed when you can just step in tropical poo and beat your Crohn's?

Immunotherapy for Crohn's disease called helminthic therapy. Scientific papers and personal accounts providing evidence for the efficacy of immunotherapy, via hookworm therapy or whipworm therapy, for the treatment of Crohn's disease. Autoimmune Therapies was founded by Jasper Lawrence.

You said you wouldn't care if they were crackheads if they didn't make the news but the point of having a drug policy is exactly so they don't make the news.

So, I went looking and the other 2 players that were suspended were Manny Lawson and Karlos Williams.. Both of whom the Bills have since cut..

Pretty sure that the Bills are supposed to be fined at the very minimum due to the policy changes the NFL made..

Apparently he uses weed to self-medicate his Crohn's disease. I think it's pretty dumb that the NFL tests for marijuana at all, but given that they do I dunno how he failed to foresee this becoming an issue.

thats pretty awful of the NFL. wow. ruthless

 

[STLRAMBRINGER]

what a ****ing league and ******** war has been waged on people who use that plant. Disgusting.

NFL players should take a knee for this. As if getting treatment for a disease is somehow wrong because of some stupid taboo about a plant.
