HGH, amphetamines, toradol, and steroids... given that the NFL testing procedure is pre-announced and basically an intelligence test.. and given the absolutely shoddy medical and regulatory practices of the league regarding its medical staffs.. and given some of these substances produce long term performance gains..…

What the article DID make clear is that it relieves pain so you can get out on the field and put your body through more pain on top of the deeply masked pain from last week, which your team doctor can encourage you to mask next week with another powerful pain killer injection (complemented by uppers) so the…

Plus coaches and staff (and asshole teammates) greatly stigmatize injured players (assuming they’re not powerful stars or super young studs)

Lots of people including beloved Prince get taken in by cult like groups or conspiracy nuts.

Maybe his ideal world is one in which the most successful start up of all time wasn’t a total scam led by a smooth talking disruptor CEO looking to re-monopolize transportation using Silicon Valley billions to erode critical publicly regulated services

“Threatening the country with war if they refuse to back off the settlement issue? Seems needlessly and dangerously bellicose.”

“I guess a better question is why anyone bothers to apologize if no apologies are good enough.”

Amazing Anthony Davis manages to be a decently happy human being and a star.. Angry Russ just gonna Angry Russ
