That drug is not only popular in sports but popular in the social scene as well. It’s meant to help with an illness but college kids use it to KEEP THE PARTY GOING. And now players use it to become the 6 million dollar man. Or in Sherman’s case the multi million dollar man. Google the drug and read the stories then tell me how innocent he is. Apparently the only people who believe him are Seahawks fans. Oh the irony!!!

You can’t taint a sample with an unsterilized cup. Who knows how many other samples they screwed up. Browner is tested all the time from his days in Canada, now all of a sudden he tested positive for something. SMH. I’m glad it’s over. Lets play football and kick some butt. Go Hawks!

He’s using some form of PED, if he wasn’t he wouldn’t have had a masking agent in his system.

If they are putting this stuff in their water bottles during games, and the other players on the team know it, it is logical to assume that its use on that team is wide spread.

If one is going to accuse someone of doing something, they have to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the accused was guilty. The repercussions are too great otherwise. Loss of pay is very substantial, especially for Sherman who is in the 2nd year of a rookie 5th round pick contract. That’s like $90,000 a game that would be lost. I think $360,000 is worth ensuring that all of the rules are followed.The rules for specimen sampling are there to ensure that there are as-close-to-100%-accurate results as possible to ensure the truth comes out. They weren’t, so the sample is compromised. If you say anything else you are just a biased perspective who either hates the Seahawks or is just envious that Sherman handled this awkward situation better than any other player ever.

Oh, and to the person who thinks that Garçon will embarrass Sherman in the playoffs… You have to get past Dallas first, and if you do, Garçon may just want to check himself onto the IR immediately after because he’s either going to blanketed by Sherman all day or laid the eff out by Bam-Bam-Kam Chancellor. Take your pick, Redskins. Go Hawks.

What if he would have lost the appeal had he chosen that route? Then they would be without him for 4 games starting now.

Now they will have both Sherman and Browner for the playoffs. No blunder in my view, a big win for the Seahawks.

Its just as easy for me to think maybe Browner did take Adderal, and somehow his sample tainted Shermans – thereby Browner knew he was guilty, and Sherman really wasn’t.

I guess we can play hypotheticals until we’re blue in the face – but only these guys know what happened, and the NFL suspended 1 of 2 players.

This is a dead story here-on-out.

First off, the idea that Browner knew he was guilty and was willing to take his punishment isn’t even floated out as a possibility. Secondly, why would any team reimburse a guy who got suspended? As a thank you for taking PEDs and getting caught?

You can tell that this guy was on something. Sitting on the sidelines in the game against the Cardinals, he could not sit still for one moment. Classic signs and symptoms of being speeded up by something other than “the 12th man.”

====================================

He could have just been excited because he totally shut Fitz down. Or because his team was dominating like no other pro team has dominated another in decades…

Let me guess, someone at the drug testing company was trying to frame him, right?

Right ;)
