Might want to get your facts straight before you throw out stuff like that.

So it wasn't technically "steroids", whatever, it was still something that got him suspended. They're all on something.

Do you sit there every week and watch the NFL and not think the majority of the NFL is on performance enhancing substances? Whether it be steroids or HGH or anything else? You're fooling yourself if you think that isn't the case.

You have nothing to apologize for. Based on his level of play to date, it was entirely reasonable to bemoan skipping him in the draft. People here tried to attribute his success to San Diego's scheme or the personnel surrounding him. Turns out he was simply outjuicing the competition.

Merriman is not a better pass-rusher than Ware. He has more sacks. There's a difference.

Peppers was still suspended, maybe not for roids but if Merriman was busted for a "dietary supplement" the reaction here would be the same.

Bob Dole would still take a roiding Merriman over Ware, most of the league is on something anyway.

I give you credit for manning up.

Remember when I said "character" is the reason why Ware is better along with being more complete? Now you know why. I even said we had a member here who predicted this. People in those debates predicted it. There is a reason why Dallas passed on him.

Now you know, but credit for manning up.

IMO the fact that he was so insulting and dismissive of every opinion that was in conflict to his is something to apologize for.
