Damn these players are idiots

Well, I guess I'll just draft Travis Kelce instead.

Hard to believe but at this point in his career, Antonio Gates just might benefit from a 12-game season.

On a serious note, this is REALLY not the guy you need to be suspended if you are a Chargers fan. The division is stiff, and so will a crowded AFC WC field. All hands on deck this year if your team isn't the Colts in the AFC.

I believe every word.

Chargers first four games if this suspension holds up:

Week 1 Lions
Week 2 Bengals
Week 3 Vikings
Week 4 Browns

3 pretty tough games from what I can see depending if the Vikings are all hype or not. Gates has always been a class act so very surprised to see his name pop up. I don't feel bad for these guys though as they have easy access to top of the line doctors that all they require is a phone call and the name of the product. If I were a pro I would call about everything I was about to take especially if it is not prescribed by a doctor. I'm sure they would find these ones without all the ingredients actually listed to be quite shady and would recommend taking some alternative.

Gates is a damn if i do damned if i dont kinda guy. I usually take him and leave him on the bench.

At first I was trying to figure out if "treme" was a drug or a supplement...

Yep, with his foot issues and age, I don't see him playing out a full season for the remainder of his career. He is a great route runner and possession TE, but age eventually catches up.

That's a good point. Also presents Ladarius Green an opportunity to step up.

Blah blah blah. The same thing every player says. Just like drunk driving with their free rides. There is no excuse. How many times do the players need to be told to have thier team doctors verify anything they are taking?:wacko:

Can you imagine if this was Gronk?? The outrage would blow the forum up.

That being said I actually do believe him.

By holistic medicines, he just means weed, right?

If it was Gronk, I bet Chargers fans wouldn't feel compelled to make it about Gates.

Thought I'd have to Google it there for a minute.

 

[broncosmitty]

Not at all tbh.

Not at all tbh.

Then again there is only 1 Chargers fan here so you are probably right

For the record, his production hasn't dropped.
