For all we know, this could be a minor blip like Peppers' suspension was. Yet, he's still a pretty good player last time I checked.
The article that originally broke this news specifically stated that it was for steroids, NOT some banned dietary supplement like the one that got Peppers suspended.

Will this thread be available 8 track (me), CD and IPOD versions?

THIS is the 1000th post? THIS? This is like waiting for a scantily clad Jessica Alba to walk through the door only to get a scantily clad Janet Reno instead!!! :bang2: I'm sure you won't mind me swiping your comparison Hos, ;).

Or he could go the way of David Boston.

Point is a huge factor in picking Ware over Merriman was character issues. And production or no, this is a big horkin red flag as to why Parcells went the direction he did.

Is a couple more gimme sacks a year against the Raiders worth the possiblity of missing half a season if he gets nailed again?

But there has been next to nothing that I have read that suggests more than word of mouth.

Case in point, if I read a Terrell Owens article within a day of the "incident", I am sure it would have been reported a "suicide attempt" by one outlet or another.

And honestly, if it was for steroids, that is besides the point I was attempting to make.

Fact is, some people believe his circumstance somehow makes Ware's lack of production acceptable. Sorry, but I want more.

In all honesty was it any worse than the rest of the drivel that fills out this thread?

This whole thread is a reaction to defend DeMarcus and denounce Merriman, otherwise there is no reason why it is so huge and keeps on going.
So what? Defend a Cowboys player who has done nothing wrong and denounce a rival who has gotten caught cheating? What's the problem with that? If we were defending the player who got busted, that's when there would be something to protest.

Is the fact that Mr. Superman got busted for breaking the rules and is now worse than useless to his team for the next month a trivial matter?

Just curious, what is a "horkin red flag"?:)

I see your point, but overall, this shouldn't be the primary topic of conversation were we not less than four hours away from a season-defining game.

This was news last night, this morning, but we should be talking about New York rather than this.

Because we have been caught on more than our own fair share of violations.

We cannot throw stones. Leon Lett was on his way to being NFL defensive player of the year before he was suspended for marijuana, no?

What's that got to do with anything?

You don't see a difference between pot and steroids?

The real question is, why are some defending Merriman even AFTER he's been busted?
