moron. And I just put him on my “next big thing, you just watch” list. Now he is off that, for being a dope.
how can these guys not expect to get caught, so that it is worth taking that risk at the point of his career he’s at now?

Perhaps that drug enabled the performance that caused you to place his name on your list. Screw him!

ditto to Peter’s reaction. He was having a really good season after a phenomenal start to his career in Brooklyn last year. This one hurt to hear.

Trying to find a silver lining, so they should load up Bay with the leftovers. That way, he will either get suspended or become productive. Either way it is a win!

Bay would laugh at you (not with you). Bay has his money so why jeopardize all that he has earned and/or that is coming to him. If he doesn’t hit you’re the one that’s anguished not Bay.

just tell him it is an inter-glute B12 shot. He’s a canuck, they’re pretty naive. might go for it.
though sometimes guys get so embarrassed, you never know what they will try to prove they don’t completely suck
