Former NFL QB: 40-50 percent of players use PEDs

So says Brady Quinn, while also attributing the rash of injuries to HGH use. Quinn noted that the four-game suspension is light compared to the reward of a huge deal.

It could be sunspots, too. Or it could be CBS' fall programming.

****, I just get the CBS site from that link. I guess I could use the Googles, but given that it's Brady Quinn as the source, I say meh.

There. That's why I prefer URL links, rather than a text block that might guide me to ****'s favorite skin site.

EDIT: ****. It keeps redirecting.

It is funny. CBS, thou suckest.

I did skim the article, though.

When Forte got hurt, I started thinking about how Walter Payton missed only one game. Would he have been knocked upward by the single defender the way Forte was?

The flexibility thing also is valid. Bell, oop's favorite player, got his knee bent. Would more flexibility have prevented an MCL tear? (I think there was a discussion about knee flexibility a few months ago, but it was derailed quickly by some with strong beliefs but not-so-strong reading skills.)

I'd bet that number is on the low side. And Quinn is right that a 4-game suspension is worth the risk for the paydays that are involved. Hell, most players probably consider it a cost of doing business.
