As I said earlier, there are FEDERAL LAWS in place for things like this.. The company broke those FEDERAL LAWS causing players to violate regulations at their job.. I would feel the exact same way if it were Patriot players.. The same can not be said for you..

i'd feel the same if it was a patriot player.

the problem is you can't prove that was the only thing they took, that's what you can't seem to understand.

first, that's not even close to the same situation, you're arguing something different then we are. The issue is you can't prove that was all they took and that's where the false test came from.

but with your example.

hence why I carried a 4million dollar liability policy.

The customer if they sued would sue my restaurant, the make of the beer and probably even the server.

you forget we live in a fucked up sue happy country.

As I've asked you like 30 times,

-why would they take a banned substance to cover another banned substance??

Why does anyone have to prove that's all they took?? I mean, if the drug was what it advertised itself to be, it wouldn't have covered up any other drugs in their systems.. You are suggesting that they either A) took a drug on the banned substance list to cover up taking another drug on the banned substance list or B) were taking steroids (or something other than a diurectic, and then once getting popped, figured out that this other totally random drug had the banned substance yet didn't list it, which I really don't think they, as football players, had the mean to get that kind of information..

Bottom line is, if Star Caps hadn';t had the banned substance, then it wouldn't have masked the use of other banned substances any more than eating straight garlic and papaya.. You are saying they had prior knowledge that Star Caps had the banned substance which brings up the first question I asked..

Why would they knowingly take a banned substance to cover the use of another banned substance??

Also, how would they have inside information about this product?? It's not like they are chemists..
