    he will need PEDs to make a "miracle" recovery like peterson, suggs, and ray lewis. he should do it, take the 4game suspension but prolong your career..

    I know someone who works with rehabbing Texans. (S)he saw Posey a few weeks ago and said he was still really shaky on the ankle

    Wait, what? Isn't the second "he" referring to DeVier Posey? If not, then I'm incredibly confused, and a little intrigued....but mainly terrified.

    Yeah good catch. You must be Devier. Disregard the (s) for the second he.

    For a player as young and unproven as Posey, this could actually work. If it helped him heal better/quicker and he was able to get on the field and actually prove to be a playmaker, four games would be a very small price to play. Especially at the beginning of the second year of possibly 10+ year career. And that's on IF he gets caught.

    Unethical? Sure.

    Genius? Absolutely, as long as it works.

    Posey is on the Matt Thomas show right now on 790. For what it's worth.

    Says he's as far along as he can possibly be.

    It's the NFL. There's no long term impact from being a cheater. The media and fans only care when baseball players cheat.

    If his injury can be significantly helped by using a banned substance he should go ahead and do it.

    Oh yeah that's great, lets go ahead and teach our young players to be cheaters.
