Yeah it was basically everyone. . Like i said, same rain i really don't look differently at Bonds, Big Mac, Sosa..etc.., there were two types, those that admit it, and those that didn't. .none that simply didn't do it.

Besides, with the alien material receiver gloves are made with today, they're stickier than stick um when they touch leather, so what's the difference?

I agree with you about the football aspect; it was common knowledge, even to at least some casual fans.

Don't agree about the baseball aspect; not only didn't they admit it, they lied to a degree that it was an insult to fans. And some, like that scumbag Braun, outright ruined innocent people in perpetuating those lies. Big difference.

Also a big difference between football and baseball. Baseball pretends to take the higher ground, while football says "Fuck you. You don't like it, beat me".

In that respect: as much as I love baseball, I prefer football's attitude.

I hated the Raiders back then, but goddam if they weren't the coolest team in the league by far. :nod::nod::nod:

He did, but never the less that dude had great hands. Loved him.

And imo, Jerry Rice should be loved the same.

Not to mention....

Well Perhaps i misspoke. .. those who admitted it, (basically only Andy Petite and Jose ) those who didn't, and those who got caught and we knew did it but still denied it

I thought they all used 'Stick-um' back in those days, no?

I remember reading a story about Belitnikoff back in the Raiders' heyday where Stabler threw a pass behind him and it stuck to the back of his helmet. :pound::pound::pound:

It wasn't against the rules when Belitnikoff was using it. It was banned the year before Rice entered the league.

Part I:

NFL suspended Vikings WR Michael Floyd four games for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

Floyd was arrested for DUI in December and tested positive for alcohol during his house arrest, violating the terms of his sentence. He claimed the positive test was triggered by Kombucha tea, an excuse met with plenty of skepticism. Floyd was awful last year, hauling in just 33-of-71 targets over 13 games for New England and Arizona. Already on thin ice with his new team, Floyd's four-game ban gives the Vikings a ready-made excuse to move on from the troubled 27-year-old.

Part Deux:

Vikings coach Mike Zimmer has informed Michael Floyd he will be released if the team determines he was lying about his Kombucha tea defense in his drinking case.

Sentenced to house arrest in his DUI case, Floyd promptly failed three "self-administered Breathalyzer tests" last month. He insisted the failure was the result of consuming too much Kombucha tea. It's a dubious defense, to put it mildly, but the matter has already been settled in the courts. Unless he fails another test, Floyd is probably home free with Zimmer and the Vikings.

That really is my bad on that one; I either totally forgot or never paid attention when that happened; kinda like when they forbade defensive backs from touching wide receivers, no?

Well, no...that one I have noticed. ;)

Also he's a big dude, does he really find it necessary to carry a gun? Apparently he was the only one with a gun of the group he was with.

The attorney for D'Onta Foreman released a statement regarding Foreman's arrest on Sunday afternoon disputing charges of an unlawful firearm and stating Foreman did not possess marijuana.

The attorney, Chip Lewis, claims Foreman broke no laws. "This legal handgun was recently purchased by D'Onta and registered in his name," Lewis' statement reads. "The handgun was properly secured inside his vehicle as required by Texas law. A passenger in D'Onta's vehicle was in possession of marijuana. D'Onta did not use or possess the marijuana." Lewis also said Foreman will take a urine test to prove that he wasn't smoking weed


Have a feeling this'll get more interesting before long
