Lol! Seriously, 80% or more of pro football players use PEDs of some kind. They all know when they will be tested, so most of them fly under the radar.
Doesn’t it seem a little fishy when a player breaks his arm, then returns 2-3 weeks later! Lets all not be naive

“When Sherm and Browner failed their tests a lot of people were calling the Seahawks cheaters.

So… Redskins are all cheaters, including RGIII”

Right, because two starting corners who are a major strength of Seattle’s defense taking PEDs is the same as a 3rd string right tackle.

He was active every game but baked up Tyler Polumbus, every game. He came in last week after Polumbus got a concussion. He’s a backup RT. nothing to see here. Move along.

Why is it as soon as these guys as backups are needed, they get popped- Polumbus gets hurt & this guy’s gonna start next week ( in all likelihood) and Bam- he’s suspended… About 4 weeks ago same thing with Cedric Griffin, one good game, others are hurt & the Redskins need him, Bang-4 game suspension… On the eve of the regular season, Bang- Tanard Jackson suspended for the season… I suspect decision makers are involved in this process who are against the Redskins….

I know you’re mostly kidding, but either wayI don’t really see a conspiracy so much as some bad luck and some poor judgment.

The Bucs knew Tanard Jackson was going to be suspended this season, that’s why they cut him. Either someone in Washington didn’t do their homework, or the honus was on Tanard to let the staff know about his failed drug tests, and he didn’t come clean: bad luck/bad judgment.

Cedric Griffin: bad luck

Jordan Black: Polumbus had a minor concussion, and there’s no reason he shouldn’t be back next week, if not Compton will probably be ready to go: bad luck for the Redskins and bad judgment on Black’s part (now his career is over AND his nuts don’t work).

All I know is that losing this guy means absolutely nothing to the Redskins… The only time this guy even got a chance to play O-Line this year was when Trent Williams got injured in the Bengals game and this guy LITERALLY could not block ANYONE, which was part of why the Skins lost that game as well as why RG3 took some nasty hits that game… If anything, assuming Montgomery or one of the other starters cannot play, it might be a good chance to get one of the rookies (Gettis/Compton/LaRibeus) some experience in a big game against the injured and under-performing Eagles, and I bet they play better than he would have played anyway… Though it is crazy how this guy gained 50 pounds on PEDs – those things are serious! haha

I understand that many of you see sports a some noble profession that produces heroes for your children or the 9 year old version of yourself, but its time to grow up. Nearly everyone at the highest levels of any sport is using drugs.

These guys are clowns paid well to entertain us. Enjoy the entertainment and stop worrying what to tell your kid about Adderol, and enjoy it for what it is. Think I’m full of it? Listen to Joe Rogan’s podcast interview of Victor Conte. You’ll gain a good understanding of why the people who control big time sports don’t care a wit about any of this stuff.

Nothing suspicious about putting on 50 lbs of muscle quickly. I’m sure he just did P90x…

Pretty sure Jordan Black has not played in every game this year. Although maybe he should have in place of garbage Tyler Polumbus…the roids might of helped the blocking off the right side!

He’s probably on the punt protection unit or something.

Point being, while I by no means condone cheating of any form in professional sports, especially PEDs, one has to take some objection to the way this article was structured.

I was joking around before, but it is irksome that the article never makes clear that Black was next in line on the chopping block during the preseason, that he’s Washington’s third string tackle, or that he’s only taken 20-30 snaps on the actual offensive line all year, when their backup RT went down with a concussion.

Ohmigod! The Redskins’ third-string right tackle who has played 20 or 30 snaps all year was cheating!!? Quick, suspend the entire franchise for the rest of the season and take away all their draft picks for the next decade! The NFL needs to send a strong message to talentless 38-year-old journeymen cheating in order to earn a living for their families.

The Redskins don’t have any draft picks to take. …Cheaters!!!

If I got a job offer with a $500,000 plus salary I could put a little integrity aside to make it happen. I can’t really blame him.

Why bother with the illegal PED’s? You are going to get caught, they always do.
Why not actually try gaining weight the natural way? 10,000 calorie a day diet, massive amounts of peanut butter, eggs and pasta every day, it works. I know Its not super quick, but here’s the thing… you won’t be suspended. If you care not to go that route, how about creatine? Its expensive, but legal. And it works, quick.

No worries. The depth on this team is pretty good. Black was a turnstile anyways.
