He was a beast coming out of high school in NJ. I think he was a top 5 linebacker recruit. Anyways, he's now a mutant, and I'm not surprised he liked needles in his butt.

Look at that gynecomastia!! That's what happens when you don't use estrogen blockers while juicing..

Nailed it

Sad thing is, if a young athlete is willing to do the work, he only needs a normal diet in order to excel. Sad because the enhancements can cause harm and actually change personalities into horrific fuckheads.

What I find disturbing is this:

"We were disappointed to learn that Brian has been suspended for the first four games of the 2010 season," Houston general manager Rick Smith said in a statement.

A simple "We are disappointed" statement would have left open the possibility that they were disappointed that Cushing was juicing, should the allegations be true.

Instead, it is clear that they are pissed off by the suspension more than the probable harm he has done to himself and the deleterious effect the "don't ask, don't tell," "don't worry, be happy" (with the wins) attitude that pervades professional sports and, by extension, college sports.

I have mixed feelings on this subject. Brian was stupid about his timing.

You guys have no idea how many people juice...

Of course I respect those natural guys. But how many Jedi do you really think exist, even with nowadays policies?

How many of you actually understand what I'm talking about collegiately, really?

Just seems so unnecessary.

I understand how that could be frustrating. Props to you guys pulling it off all naturale.

Chemistry, though, is the bottom line. See the Germany olympic titles during their silent reign for my first control group.

Look guys, I know I'm going to be blasted for being blunt on this and I know why and agree. But what of the 80% of other "cheaters" that will never get caught for intelligent scheming.

Like it or not, welcome to the 21st century. As times evolve, so will athletes, oh yeah, and warriors. See exhibit B: United States military.

as much as i would hate to admit it, i would assume their are more natural athletes than steroid filled ones. granted i know almost 90% or more use GNC type products but the ones that roid up are maybe 25-30% of pro's anyways. maybe more in college but roids just make u stronger not always a better decision maker and thats what makes you get into the pros. in my opinion

I would say work ethic, intelligence, and knowing when to retreat get you to the pros. When you are juicing, you'll never retreat.

Essentially, I agree.

Agree, 5 meals a day including steak in two of them with protien shakes on the side while hitting the gym hard you can gain 40lb in a year.

it wasnt steroids he tested positive for man. it was a PED. that can be anything. the book of NFL banned substances is like 200-300 pages long of what you cant have. coulda been a fat burner, coulda been too high of an amount of amino acids in his system. the rules are kinda ridiculous. just like in college, after workout the NCAA does not let the staff give out more than like 20-30 grams of protein, BUT if the student athlete has a jug in his locker he can take more.

could have been a masking agent for a steroid...

as previously mentioned, steroid rumors about Cushing are hardly a news flash. If the AP strips his defensive ROY award then it should probably go to Jarius Byrd who finished a distant second.

It's not Cushings fault guys, he has the intellect of a Trojan... someone at practice probably said "Go big or go Home!" So when his Viagra ran out he probably didn't know what else to do....... poor kid just didn't want to go home.
