Nevermind the massive O and D lines, look at today's typical D-back or WR even, they are all more diesel than any linebacker from the 1980's. Then, look at retired LB Dahanni Jones who is doing TV for travel channel these days and see how much homie has shrunk and come back to earth.Terry B. wrote: I have a friend who played in the NFL a few years, mostly on special teams and he said that the percent of players who weren't hooked/using/abusing something or the other was around 0.

Dhani Jones is good example an even better one is Ray Lewis this year...20 pounds down and it's completely obvious he made a calculation to switch up the cocktail and the bill came due last week.High Velocity Lie-Nap! wrote:We just need to get over ourselves and let people use PED's and weed without penalty.

Re: Lance concedes, likely to lose titles...
I would have sworn Lewis said he was done 40 pounds and he attributed it to all of the cycling he did. But yes, of course his course correction was chemical in nature. That bill coming due is of course another obvious sign of the times but I don't know that the NFL loving public will ever come to see that all of these season ending tendon and ligament tears that are now so common are a by-product of chemicals, at least some of the time and more so than the turf changes, IMO.Blaidd Drwg wrote:Dhani Jones is good example an even better one is Ray Lewis this year...20 pounds down and it's completely obvious he made a calculation to switch up the cocktail and the bill came due last week.High Velocity Lie-Nap! wrote:We just need to get over ourselves and let people use PED's and weed without penalty.

You're probably correct, 40 is too big a number for my brain to allow.
What kind of sleeping pills?

Re: Lance concedes, likely to lose titles...
Greg Lemond should get a free swing at Armstrong's head with a baseball bat. Even though he's a bitter old bastard, he's a bitter old bastard who's been proven right. Armstrong went to huge lengths to ruin his life after Lemond said that either Armstrong was the greatest sports story of all time or the biggest fraud of all time. Time for some retribution.

Re: Lance concedes, likely to lose titles...
Oh, it can be both. Coming back from your death bed to win one of the toughest sporting events in the world 7 straight times is an amazing story. And the fact that he took the same drugs to do it that every other rider in the peloton was taking is a moot point, other than being an indictment of the organization behind the sport and the culture of the sport itself.Blaidd Drwg wrote:Why can't it be both?Alfred_E._Neuman wrote: Lemond said that either Armstrong was the greatest sports story of all time or the biggest fraud of all time.
But LeMond should still get his crack at Armstrong's skull.

Hmmmm...If it's a contest of pure talent, I actually think Jan may have won a couple of them....but I basically am warm to the the sentiment. Under the actual ROE, Lance and his team were the best.
