What the bloody hell are you talking about? First you say it didn't help that he had got caught before then it was pointed out that he hadn't and then you mention his past? what exactly are you talking about? What has be fine to warrant test after test after test and what the he'll makes it ok. It's targeting and it's absolutely not ok or ethical and the excuse that they are to the boss and they can do whatever they want ddoesnt make it right or excusable. So again, what has he done to warrant the need for test after test after test.

I think you know where RCSponser32 or whatever his name is is going with this. He is one of the posters we have had problems with before in controversial threads.

I’m sure that @bobcat91wouldn’t have a problem at all with a cop posting up outside of his apartment complex every other week, and pull him over to search his car every afternoon when he heads to work - just to search his vehicle to make sure he doesn’t have any drugs or is driving drunk. If he is clean he has nothing to worry about!

Idiot.   Noun.  Informal. an utterly foolish orsenseless person:

If I was him, every time they wanted some pee, I'd walk into the office, whip it out, and say "We wanna make sure it's fresh".

[LinvilleGorge]

I'd eat at least a pound of asparagus every single day.

So how often does a player normally get tested?

3-4 times a season.

How long before the NFL puts something in his urine to get him out of the league? Wouldn't surprised me. The NFL is dirty.

If this gets Reid fired up than more power to him.  It fires me up as well.

But the same accusations made last year lead to an investigation by both the League AND the Union that said Reid was not being accurate about the # of times he was being tested.  So there is that.

I am sympathetic if he is getting tested this much. 

However, devil's advocate, I have not seen proof that he has gotten tested. No photos of the requests or the results, you would think there would be a paper trail of all of that. 

If he posted proof of each request and or passed test it would go further in gaining sympathy from the public at large, and would even garner media attention/assistance. Granted, he might not legally be allowed to do that, but I would assume he could black out the information that would get him in trouble. 

Saying that, I don't necessarily believe the NFL is telling the truth either. I KNOW they won't provide any proof one way or the other. 

Either way, me personally, I would like more proof over he said she said stuff.

He is allowed to have his own tester along with the official guy.  If Reid is concerned about it, he should ensure that each time he gets tested, one sample goes to the league, and one to a private facility.

This is just pure and simple spite.

If not for Tepper he may still be on the couch instead of competing for a SuperBowl.

Tepper never colluded!

He complained about this last year and the NFL/NFLPA came out with a joint press release calling him a liar.
