    You have to inject hcg so this kinda makes me move further toward he was taking roids again.


    Hopefully he moves on and realizes he doesn't need them.

    If it was so cut and dry, why not just make the decision asap. The 8 month delay makes me more skepitcal about how certain they were before taking action, lawyers probably got involved and experts to back them up.

    I have jumped on the idea that taking away the ROY is fine because it provides a chip on Cush's shoulder which hopefully can make him work and play just that much better.

    The man already sleeps in an oxygen tent. I don't think he can really work that much harder.

    Hey guys I obviously don't do steroids because my agent and lawyers leaked out that I passed a lie detector. And we all know how legitimate those lie detectors are!!!

    That picture is not really much proof. His arms are the same size in both pics. the biggest thing is the puffy nips but you can have those without roids.

    We all know how legitimate posting two pictures (from completely different angles, poses and clothes, as well) are!!!! After all, people never increase their sizes by natural measures!!! What amazing, incredible scientific proof you have!!!

    :rolleyes:

    Who cares about the comparison. Look at that second pictures its a joke to think hes not on some kind of steroid or HGH. All of this is irrelevant the NFL has no test for HGH and everyone is looking through rose colored glasses if they think the majority of the NFL is not on HGH.

    Really? the whole purpose of the female fertility drug is restart the body's testosterone production and is typically used by steroid users. Why would he take it?

    At least in Brian's case, this wasnt something that was continually in his system. It was a one time thing where levels were so low that he wouldnt have tested positive last year for it.

    Also, definately is actually spelled definitely....check your dictionary before you talk out of your behind.

    Wow really? So why would cushing take it?? Your first argument is that manny ALSO tested positive for roids. You were talking out of your ass and now you come back with "Why else would he be taking it".

    I'm not saying he did or didn't do anything. I don't know. I'm saying that based on what we had at the time, this is what it looked like. At this point it doesn't matter to me whether he did or didn't juice. He's suspended 4 games.

    Dude...the baseball era...bonds, marky mark, giambi...all those guys did some sort of major performance enhancing drugs, whether it be HGH or roids. And I never once stated that Manny tested positive for roids. Go read again and learn to comprehend. Before I posted that, it was even noted what Manny tested positive for in this very thread. But, to think that Manny didnt do roids is ridiculous...specially given his performance since MLB has cracked down on the issue. Manny most definitely did do roids.

    And if Cushing comes back and is a normal LB, then Cushing most definitely did do roids or use some product that majorly enhanced his performance.

    Why, because he is flexing and making a weird face? He's really not that much bigger in the 2nd picture- he's flexing there and not in the first.

    From what we know now, the difference between Manny and Cushing is that Manny had a prescription for it, indicating that he was injecting it as a possible mask for steroid use. Cushing failed one out of many tests with a slightly high level of a hormone that the body does naturally produce- there is no indication as of yet that he injected it, and the more that comes out the more it seems like it could have been a mistake.

    Exactly everything is a mute point. Hes suspended his 4 games the rest of the nation has its opinion on him being a cheat and thats all that matters. Texans fans can argue it all day but it wont change the fact that the public, the union and the NFL view him as a cheat.

    I guess I'll play naive on this, if he hasn't tested positive for Steroids or any PED then in my book he is clean, simple as that. Whether people assume the HCG was a masking agent or not is truly irrelevant because no direct evidence exist that he used anything to improve his play or heel faster and even the substance he did use caused only "slightly" elevated levels.

    Last post on this subject because theres no changing minds here. But if it was such a mistake why did the NFL go public with this after 8 months of investigation. You act like they didn't know these facts when they were going through with the process.
