Yeah, this is ridiculous! What else can go wrong with this season? At least they can still play Sunday. I want to see what Deuce can do being the primary back and all.

I could see this if they were actually winning games but damn they suck this year. Not to mention Deuce is on my fantasy team.

we need to get a little kid in a Deuce jersey to approach Deuce with a sad look and a hurt voice and just say, "Say it ain't so Deuce. Say it ain't so."



This season is turning into an absolute disaster. I still think Steck can carry the load though, especially with Pierre spelling him every now and then. Losing Reggie hurts this offense more at this stage of the game IMO.

naw, frick that, Deuce is the holy grail to me, I can understand him doing it, 2 major knee surgeries and wanting to get back to his team, but Will Smith I'm disappointed in.

If they get a suspension for this.. The NFL staff should be fired from the commisioner-down!

Well at least Payton has an excuse for the sorry team he's put on the field.

So here is my question on this issue. So water bills are considered a banned substance because it can help cover up drugs during a drug test. Shouldn't the team doctor be aware of this? If that is the case, if these players took this pill without informing their team doctor isn't that their fault? Just seems to me with how many people are on staff, with the physicals these players go through at the beginning of the year, the team doctor should be aware of anything that goes into a players body. Having that responsibility they should also know every drug that is not allowed in their body according to the NFL. If the doctor okayed the drug it should be on them, if the player did not inform the team doctor they should face the suspension.

Well good thing we had 4 running backs cuz now we got two for the immediate future...Thomas and Stecker...throw in the possibility of Shockey never shaking the lingering injury, the verdict still being out on whether Colston is healthy enough to make him an impact right now and you have a crappy offense....defend them all you want but they are very average to below average in every skill position but quarterback for the next few weeks.


Woah now big boy! Seems like we were above average even without Deuce. And half of the folks here think Reggie's not a Running Back anyway.

Deuce will likely be suspended after the appeal, if it is denied. That means he's good for this weekend.

However, this is a big hit to our running game...like last year. Stecker and Thomas will have to bear the brunt.

We were doing just fine without Colston and Shockey. Drew can hit 9 other guys and do just fine. Lance Moore was not star-quality, but damn if he didn't catch a load of balls. Devery, Patten, Moore, and Meachem...we'll be ok.

However, can we get a yard? Stecker can probably pound out a yard if we need it.

I lost Reggie for four weeks so I picked up Deuce late last night in a trade to carry over until Reggie could come back and was even consider starting them both together. 12 hours later and fricking Deuce is facing the same number of games for a water pill suspension. frick ME RUNNING, now the question is Stecker or Thomas gonna be the man. I jumped out and picked up Stecker but then I look at their numbers/upside and then promptly drop Stecker and pick up Thomas. These guys are freaking killing me. On a less selfish note Deuce is one of the few players that I thought a kid could truly look to as a role model along with Warrick Dunn. I think it should be illegal to suspend a player for a "masking agent" unless he has a track record of illegal substance abuse. The NFL fricked Hollis Thomas with his asthma inhaler last year when there was no way in hell it was being used to give him a competitive edge except for the ability to breathe air.

Bit of advice...DON'T BE A HOMER when it comes to fantasy football. It will kill ya! However, Reggie is a great pic for anyone to have; homer or not.

at least grant and smith both recognize they are fat and slow and need to lose weight...that's the silver lining we can take....they are both past the denial phase....

that's what happens when you sign contracts you don't deserve, production drops off and suddenly you don't feel the need to perform anymore.
