Is Green Bay one of the NFL's drug dens?

[Rastak]

We should respond by acknowledging that we are sure that if there are eight Packers on such a list, then there are obviously three times that many on other teams, and that it's abundantly clear that every single player on the rosters of the Bears, Vikings, Seahawks, and Patriots is surely a severe drug addict, and probably a rapist, too.

That's how I say we should respond.

True, like Sharper....wait, we got him from you!

The Love Boat corrupted him.

The Love Boat corrupted him.

That's a theory worth exploring!

Was anybody else alarmed reading the quote from Tony Horton saying he gave "supplements" to Eddie Lacy when they were working out together? The alarm rang loud and clear and I felt a a sense of dread that this celebrity trainer with no previous experience with NFL players just screwed up Eddie's next piss test.

Yes. Though there is an approved list. So it should NOT be hard to parse that down.

If you avoid over the counter crap that promises the moon, it can probably be done safely by non-NFL trainers.

But I'd be lying if I said that fear hadn't crossed my mind.

He sells his own brand of supplements through his program. Been doing it for years. I'd be shocked if a fitness personality wasn't selling them.

I wonder how much a company pays to have their product on the approved list? Does the NFL still have the Supplement Hotline? Sure hope Horton doesn't endorse StarCaps.

Yes, the NFL has a list of approved supplements.

I remember when Ras and I were going back and forth during the Starcaps debate, I found a list published by the NFL.

The StarCaps thing was wacky. IIRC, it was ok and players had been taking it to make weight for a while. Formula got changed, but the new ingredient did not appear on the label. NFL knew about this, but didn't send out a warning. It then proceeded to collect a list of players who were using it (Deuce McAllister was one) and suspend them all! Cool sting operation guys!

Goofy deal, for sure.
