Doc Brown Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Just now, Matt_In_NH said: This is SOP right? Random testing? Correct. If anything it gives me more confidence in the league's drug testing policy if they're randomly selecting a long snapper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boater Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 When I was in the service, they rolled a random number and called you in by the last digit of your SSN. One year, I was called 5 times. They were called a "whiz quiz" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's not clear is what the penalty would be if he tested positive. It's not like the Bills would forfeit the Chargers game. Would he be suspended? That would be very bad.

I think it is spelled out clearly in the CBA, no games ever get forfeited, that is not a thing. I think for PED's, it is kind of a standard suspension. This happens randomly to players every week on every team, it is simply not common to see an image of the letter on the locker. The title of the thread is kind of unnecessarily inflammatory.

I refuse to believe "technological advancements" are the sole reason why 290-lb guys now run 4.4 forty times or why the recovery period for knee ligament tears has been reduced by 40%. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow, someway, I’d get selected for a “random” drug test twice a year during the busy season when they were running extra shifts. Oddly it never happened during the slow times of year when they had one skeleton shift and the odds of an office person being selected were much great. Only during the time of year they couldn’t afford to lose anyone in the shop. Hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong I don't really keep up with the policy, I just figured it was understood that most players in the league were on it. HGH is the best medicine available for quickly healing muscle tears, and most nfl players regularly suffer muscle tears of some degree due to the brutal nature of the game. Ban HGH and half the league can’t play on any given week either due to suspension or abstention from taking the medicine (out of fear of suspension). There is a reason the NFL doesn’t test for it and penalize players for usage. It would regularly destroy game-day rosters. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cured a partial tear in my Achilles with it without having surgery. So I'm a believer.
