I know. I was being sarcastic.


Probably couldn't drink enough water given his size.

that does not work if they tested positive for weed...mett did not test positive for anything

Come on man. The only logical explanation in all of this is that Mett has been smoking weed, blowing lines and popping various PED's like tic tacs.

But, by all means, continue to be an apologist.

they would know if he put water in there, the temperature of the urine tells whether or not it is actually urine or tap water from the bathroom sink

So if they take the temperature right away why dont they test for dilution right away? And I am not attacking you, but as a fellow poster who has taken alot of drug test as well, dont you think it is a little silly of the NFL?

Massive, please answer the following... of the 100+ players at the combine, excluding the 10 with failed and/or inconclusive tests, how many were drinking 1 - 1.5 gallons of water for months leading up to the combine?... Would it have been harmful to his body if Mett had scaled back on the consumption for the combine?.... Is it EVER a good idea to ignore a physician's orders?

they probably did...but my guess would be that you only get one chance, they aren't going to wait around for you to piss again. I can see why they would do that at lsu when you were an athlete but the nfl combine doesn't have time to mess with it. just my opinion on how they handle it though.

I don't believe this too much water BS. We were drug tested in the Marines all the time, and I guarantee that he drank no more water than many of us were drinking. I never heard of anyone's test being flagged for the sample being too diluted.

You are prolly right, just seems like they should at least take a hair sample. That way it doesnt even allow the possibility of the player to go with the "hydration" excuse

depends on what kind of drug test it was....or if the marines didn't flag for it being diluted.

and i will repeat, i do not know if mett was hiding anything...just trying to point out the opposite side of the arguments

Hold on, are y'all debating whether he added the water himself AFTER it was in the cup?

the way i have seen it work is if you have a diluted test result, then that person would be required to pay for his own hair test to prove he is clean. hair tests are expensive and most "companies" will not pay for a 2nd test, much less a hair test.

Did they fail or were they just flagged?

Yeh that is why at LSU we sat our happy little selves in the room for another 3 hours until we could pee a good sample

Failed. I was joking. Probably would take freak twice as much water unfortunately for him.

You wouldnt believe the things that went on in that room. Guys used to love the "Well I pissed when I woke up this morning so can I come back tommorrow", or the geniuses "Hey man, dont flush your extra down the toilet, just poor it in there and let it sit and i will scoop it out for my sample" Too bad the creepy cross eyed guy stood all of 1 inch right behind us in the bathroom
