Reid, because he is in the NFL, gets contracts to play football worth millions. I don't think he's getting fuged even if he was chosen to get drug tested every week. The NFL is his benefactor.

I think those getting fuged are all the black people that believe they have to be a rapper or professional ball player to do something with their life. If you believe you have to be a rapper or athlete to be anything in life chances are you won't be anything in life.

This is the message the media sends to the blacks, which is the real racism.

When these things happen it does not lead to being racist. Everything that happens it is automatically racist which is really overdoing it and going way overboard with it.

Not going to rush on this one.

Fairly easy for Reid to slap the NFL pretty hard on this one.

It's not common to get popped a few times with a test, and I posted an article from James Harrison a few years ago bitching about it, but something isn't sitting right on this one.

If true he shouldn’t be offered a contract next season.  He even had other players coming to his defense by stating the number of times they’ve been tested.  If Reid exaggerated this numbers (like he exaggerated his level of play), then fug him.

Even Ron Rivera said if he was Reid he would buy a lotto ticket. I definitely do not trust the NFL but if true, it is not a very good look for Reid.

If my employer had a random drug testing policy and I did not do drugs (as is the case), and they tested me more than others following a grievance, I have a choice---take the tests or get a lawyer.  This is a job, not an entitlement.  The NFL has done nothing until a test shows up positive.

I am starting to think Reid could be a locker room cancer--no telling how many young minds (Gaulden, Jackson, for example) he could be corrupting with his conspiracy nonsense.  Take the test or refuse and lawyer up--he did neither.  He is trying to use PR tactics to retaliate.

There is a reason more than civil rights when a player of his talent and potential sits in free agency like he did.  We know nothing, but we are starting to see the tips of the iceburg.  Playing the victim--and I was on his side vs. the owners until I learned more.  I admit that I do not have the facts like some of you Aristotles,  but the signs are not great.

you think.   we'll see.  if he lied i don't like it either.   however the nfl is at a point where they need to prove it.  i don't trust  the nfl just because they said so.

And folks, look at the average roster in the NFL--this is really not about racism.  If I thought that were the case, I would be the first in line to protest. 

They ask Reid to take a drug test, and he complies but feels discriminated against.  Yet he complies.

Yet he does not stand for the National Anthem for the same reason?

I personally did not think he should have to stand, but I do not recall anyone telling him that he had to stand.  We just do not know all of the facts, but if I am a GM, I worry that he could piss in the drinking water--I look elsewhere for talent (safe move, not a racial move).

Every drug test I have done and I'm subject to random test at anytime.  You sign a piece of paper with a time and date on it  and get a copy. So if Reid was tested alot he would have receipts to prove it.  

The NFL is basically daring him to provide proof. They can’t because of HIPAA which is why they leaked that he has been tested less than he claimed via “sources.”

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
