[jterrell]

makes alot of sense.
he was an undersized guy who probably couldn't stay in the league without some type of supplements and illegal ones may be needed.

LOL, ya dont think any of the current cowboys use steroids ?

To play the game today, the way some of these guys are you cant tell me that a good bit of them have not used steroids in past to get the bodies they have. Some of them need to use to keep playing. There are ways to cycle the roids too, without becoming totally abusive.

All the pro bodybuilders use roids, its just the way it is. You dont really hear about roid rage with guys like schwarzenegger and franco columbo. I read that those guys use to go on for a short time than go off of the steroids, that must factor in some how.

But then you have a guy like schwarzenegger who is in great shape and he has heart problems, wonder if thats an after effect of the roids.

Anyway, i wouldnt be judgemental of someone who used steroids to perform in the nfl. not everyone has the benefit of incredible genes, if you want to play pro football thats a risk some have to take.

Oh, you know they always say ex or almost Cowboy, not their current team or another ex team. L. Taylor could have played only one play for Dallas, and they would spin all his off field troubles as ex Cowboy....

 

[Dat mans bro]

Just saw this, not sure if repost. Here ya go.

Matt Lehr - G - Falcons Oct. 17 - 5:26 pm et
NFL suspended starting LG Matt Lehr four games for violating the league's steroids policy. We'd hate to see what the Giants defensive line would have done to Atlanta last week if Lehr was clean. After a difficult test this week against Pittsburgh, the Falcons rushing attack faces three relatively soft defenses: Cincy, Detroit, and Cleveland.

 

[Tuna Helper]

I didn't know that he was still playing in the NFL.

 

[BLT]

i didnt know they tested for steroids in the NFL.

I am pretty sure some may use...
With 50 plus guys the odds are for a few of those to do it..
But if they are and I hope they are not I am at least glad they have not been suspened ala Lehr.

We dont need to loose anyone this year.

Is the part about Rogers being suspended true?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

after the 1st 2 games, what have the Falcons done on the ground rushing?

 

[AtlCB]

after the 1st 2 games, what have the Falcons done on the ground rushing?

They rank 1st in the NFL in rushing. They gained 233 yards on the ground against the Giants. They have two great running backs in Warrick Dunn and Michael Vick.

 

[superpunk]

Caught the end of an update on Fox Sports Radio, and they said Lehr was busted and suspended for steroid use. Has anyone else heard anything? It's possible I misheard, and I haven't seen anything yet, so I was wondering if anyone else did.

 

[JPM]

Yeah, he got caught on the sauce.

 

[MC KAos]

yup, i saw it on espn, him and someone else i cant remember right now
