PromoTheRobot Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 So when do they make lil' Tawmmy pee in a cup? A team of players pushing 40 getting caught for PEDs? Shocking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like he had low T. NFL should allow tx for that. Keeps the guys "aggressive", and newsworthy in the off season unfortunately. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He retired, started treatment outside Nfl rules and while retired got tested. A month later gets a call to come back and while negotiating finds out he failed said test. As guys go, Watson’s pretty standup and I tend to believe him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does so to avoid exactly this type of situation being a workaround. For a guy his age to end the season injured and retire, to start a treatment and then when feeling better to have the itch to play again doesn’t seem crazy to me. What part of that doesn’t seem plausible to you? The dudes on the NFLPA’s Executive Committee, so he knows the rule and very much that he’d still be tested this offseason. I wasn’t going to play and then I decided to play seems pretty feasible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 We play them week 4, so he should be suspended that game. Good for us, I guess. Them missing pieces is better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was thinking of coming back, of course he was taking something. 13 hours ago, MJS said: We play them week 4, so he should be suspended that game. Good for us, I guess. Them missing pieces is better than nothing. He'll appeal. That will delay his suspension. After, Watson smashes his phone and Krafty Bob makes a few calls.
