Sorry if this has been posted already. Mr. Norman seemed pretty upset.

Are those only for performance enhancing drugs?

What is the big deal a player being asked to take a drug test? I do not get why Norman was upset.

Think he was just pissed because it followed a loss. Had they won, I doubt we would have heard anything about this.

He's in the NFL. If he wants to be in the NFL, he should follow the rules. Random testing is part of the rules. No use whining about it to the media until they decide to try to renegotiate the CBA.

Is it against the rule to complain? Because he followed the rule and took the test

I understand Random testing, but right after a game?, and especially a loss, does seem ridiculous....Im sure somewhere out there, theres more than a few people on probation who have gotten random visits/tests not too long after a long day at work, and then complained about it on FB.....

And who knows, maybe he didnt have to pee at the time so he had to sit around somewhere bored until he could go.....I had to take a UA after a job interview once and couldnt go until about 20 minutes of chuggin water......

It makes perfect sense. Depending on what you're doing. That's when the dose could be at it's highest.

Suspension! Get'em!

I'm sure like adderall or the equivalent would be the only thing at the highest dosage around game time
