Sorry 5 posters who are watching Panthers @ Buccaneers.

I wonder why Columbus, GA and some of eastern Alabama get that but not Atlanta.

Its these kind of statements that I'm talking about. You are so willing to defend a dumbass who continually breaks the law and NFL's rules while putting other people's lives in jeopardy. But a white dude does a party drug and suddenly he's satan.

I don't care about Welker, and I don't hate the dude at all. I'm criticizing the NFL, blockhead. I don't hate players, baby, I hate the game. :whatup:

Schwack: Jan 31, 2003; Someone needs to stop this! Sherman has lost his mind! Peyton is completely unable to defend himself out there!

Rumor moving around that the Seahawks are looking at Champ Bailey. They waived WR Phil Bates, again, today and are almost certainly going to look for a guy to play the slot.

edit: Someone said they had a source for this at one point, but it seems to have vanished. Either way, they're adding someone.

Don't dare the NFL to institute a rule that helmets must remain on at all times including press conferences, you know they'd be all over that poo poo.

Maybe the rules start changing now because of how many star players are currently suspended, instead of changing because now it's the white player who's suspended?

I was trying to remember if the rule predated John Randle back when he started getting fined for his face paint and found this old newsgroup chat.

This has to be a god drat circus they run over at NFL HQ. Does Paul really
not have that much to do in his office other than look for people to fine.
Remember when Jimmy Mac was wearing headbands? Fined for each one. He made a
mockery out of the game didn't he. I mean c'mon it was only a headband with
a word written on it. The best was when he wore the one in the SB that said
Rozell(sp) on it.
This truely is the NFL, Thats NoFunLeague.
I think they should fine Deion for:
1 wearing his head cover that says JESUS on it, this is football not church.
2 That big gold chain - leave the jewlery at home
3 all that show boating he does when lining up to return a punt
4 Just for being Deion!
I too would like the League office address, maybe we all should write
letters on Randles' behalf, just
flood them with it. Maybe they will get the picture.

Yeah HGH testing kinda sucks. Is there even much evidence that it's very bad for you?

Edit: Short answer is not really, though there's also not much reason to be confident it's safe. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_hormone_treatment#Adverse_effects

This post is loving hilarious.

Also, it wasn't Welker's suspension that spurred the talks, it actually was Gordon's(especially how it contrasted to Rice's lenient sentence and subsequent backlash)suspension. I posted somewhere that the league and NFLPA were close to an agreement before Welker even happened.

Goodell has been using the league's draconian pot policy as a bargaining chip to get HGH testing in for years.

Also, I know the NFL season is back when I get stuck with a crappy Steelers game over a much better matchup. Week 1 baby!

Does anybody really think that HGH testing is about player health? This is the same league that is desperately trying to conceal that everybody is getting brain damage. They don't care about player safety.

The funny thing is that the HGH test is ridiculously terrible and has to be taken within hours of shooting up to detect anything. There was a reason everyone let out a collective "lol, what?" When Chael Sonnen got popped for it.

When I was in Rhode Island last year, I was gonna miss the Browns/Bears game, given that it is Pats country up there. So, I just looked up the local RI Browns Backers and made arrangements to meet up at their bar. Turns out, I went to high school with the head Backer guy.

So, look up the closest Backers group.
