    Since clenbuterol has been banned in domestic cattle for 25 or so years, I'm not sure where he got this "tainted beef".

    Hadn't heard about that, I knew it was banned there but I guess Mexican rules are Mexican rules.

    I hope everyone opts for the Mexican beef defense the next time they get busted for steroids.

    Scale of 1-10....

    Rank Brown's 1) peak 2) his level of play last season and 3) predict his '16.

    Supposedly, Brown had receipts.. a bunch of them.

    He was eating hella fajitas and hamburgers while there.

    yes there was like 7 out of 23 players that failed. but were cleared when they found out those 7 had the same meal when the team was concentrated at their training facility while the other players had a different meal. but it wasn't recently, it was like 4-5 years ago.

    Assuming 10 is like best in the game, generational talent, HOF good...

    1) Peak: 8
    2) Last season: 6 to 6.5
    3) 16: 6 (assuming health)

    If Brown is a 6 in '16, I'd jump all over that.

    Five means average, I'd take that too.

    I'm not saying he didn't eat the beef. I'm saying that I'm highly entertained by the fact.
