Since Merriman gets so much talk around here I just wanna give you the heads up that on PTI in the next few minutes will be talking about if Merriman deserves to be a Pro Bowler.

So will it be coming up or not?

Actually I was reading PFT and while they do sling alot of crap, Florio made a good point that players who get suspended for 'roids or whatever should be excluded from postseason awards.

what'd they say?One said he deserves to be in because he has a lot of sacks. The other said he doesn't deserve it because of the steroids. That was it.

Good one.I thought so, succinct, topical, ironic, very hip with the sardonic tastes of contemporary humor.:D

Wilbon was speaking on behalf of Merriman and made a dumb comment like "there isnt a rule that suspended player cant get voted into the PB" but it seems like both guys were kind of against him getting in.

No clear answer of course.

Its easy to see what the NFL is about. Drink and drive and beat up your girlfriend, give alcohol to underage kids- no fine, no suspension. Question someone's sexuality or allegedly spit in someone's face which was never seen - fine. Hit someone too hard - fine. Hit someone too low - fine. Wear your socks too high - fine. Wear adidas shoes - fine. Kill a mother while drunk- no fine, get drunk again and drive after you've already killed someone- no fine, no suspension. Cheat by using steroids- suspension. Cheat good enough to get good stats -no fine, and congrats we will send you to hawaii.

Allegedly spit on a fellow jerk of a player without witness or camera footage in an age of hyper media and you get docked 35,000 grand because you are Terrell Owens and a member of the hated Dallas Cowboys.

(Only run-on sentences were capable of containing my disgust)

Sometimes thats the only kind that will fully let your feelings show. Since I'm not sure when mine become a run on or not let me just say I agree:bang2:

I think I am going to write a letter to the new commish and send it certified mail confirm reciept. Steroid uses gained an unfair advantage. No probowl honors allowed for cheaters!!!

Merriman making it after getting caught for using steroids its an even bigger joke than Newman not making it... Just horrible!!!

He also made a better point that just because he is "clean" now that the muscle mass he built up while on steroids would still be there.

If he crashes and burns next year when it is out of his system, we will have our answer.

So you guys think Merriman is going to stop cheating because he got caught? Juicers don't quit juicin', he'll just find another 'supplement' that is easier to conceal or not tested for.

Absolutely, that was rediculous. If I was ever going to get a noncowboys jersey I think it would be Pat Tillman.
