Lewan Fails Drug Test. Suspended Four Games

Its going to take Luck being suspended for us to beat him lolz

 

Nah, we were missing Casey, Ryan, MM and still had a chance to win at the end last year.

We can take the colts with a healthy team. They aren’t all that.

 

I do think it's hypocritical that they ban something for supposed health reasons when they are really concerned about performance advantages. Because when they do discover steroids that are healthy, then what are they going do.

They do give an advantage. It's obvious. Half of the MVP's and Cy Youngs in the 90's went to steroid users and the critics are like it doesn't help you hit a baseball. Really. Then why did over half of the awards and money go to award winners. In every sport it has been the same. The doped beat the clean handily. So to think it doesn't give you a significant advantage on the football field is being naïve in my opinion. Otherwise, they wouldn't be taking them. It helps with recovery and performance.

Think he did it. Lot's of excuses. The whole brain excuse seems all too convenient. We've heard all of this many times before like with Ryan Braun and the yellow jersey, and it's to save your image, your paycheck, and your legacy, but that's all gone because he did it and he got caught. If it were some kind of innocent oopsy then more players would be getting entrapped, and there simply aren't enough cases to prove that could be the case. He's in a small handful that got busted. All the signs and symptoms are there right down to the completely unexplainable acts of stupidity on the field.

 

Ok, now that is good logic.

 

So if Tannehill had been here last year we would have broken the Colts win streak.

 

can tannehill rush the passer? thats what we needed the most. tannehill > gabby for sure though

 

As long as he doesnt throw 2 ints in the 4th, then yeah we have a good chance

 

The real problem with the "brain excuse" is that most of these supplements aren't tested in a proper clinical trial for any kind of efficacy or safety. It really is the wild west out there for this kind of stuff. The worse thing Congress did in this market was its complete deregulation since these companies don't have to prove anything and can claim virtually everything until they slap a disclaimer on the end. Any of you who listen to sports talk in Nashville on any of the stations hear about these supplements all the time in ads.

Would some work? Maybe? But once you get to complex issues like joint or brain health, I think you are pretty much flushing your money down the drain. Or worse, you are putting something in your body that could ultimately be harmful long term and not know it now.

 

In yesterday's interviews Lewan made it seem like his b-sample will be tainted as well since that test was administered from the same batch as the first one.

Sounds like that 4 game suspension is a definite

 

Having thought about this for a couple days I'm kinda of on the side thinking maybe he didnt know. He seems to have the entire team convinced, and the drug that was flagged is for bone density. He claims hes taking supplements for the brains benefits... Anyone who's had concussions should probably be on something that helps with brain health.
