you should watch the play where he got hurt first, he was blocked below the knee from behind, don't be shocked if there is a fine, it was pretty dirty block.

That does not change the fact that steroids make it FAR more likely for muscle tears after years of steroid use. For all we know, it could have been purely bad luck, but the side-effects of steroids make injuries like this far more frequent. I am not debating the legality and cleanliness of the hit.

Didn't they comment on the play after it happened last night basically saying it was fringe dirty, but not exactly saying it was dirty?

what evidence do you have to back up the claim that proper steroid use would lead to muscle tears?

I would imagine that a guy like Cushing would take it responsibly.

maybe so, but it is retarded to apply it here after seeing the hit

you are still assuming that he took steroids for years. He got caught taking them but that doesn't necessarily mean he took them for years

You're better than this. I don't care if someone used steroids or not, if a player rolls on his knee the wrong way its going to tear. Steroids have as much to do with that injury as the color his underwear.

what you are doing is looking for an excuse to blame steroids or bash a guy who took them. He was hurt because he got hit from behind on the knee.
