All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing has won a revote and will keep The Associated Press NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year award he won in January.
that's too funny. all this and the sports writers just voted him DROY again. What a joke, but i'm not surprised. it's pretty much assumed in football circles (though the press would never publicly write about it, they certainly know about it) that every single player in the NFL is Roided up in some way.
Brian Cushing - 18
Jairus Byrd - 13
Clay Matthews III - 10
Brian Orakpo -3
James Laurinaitis -1
The biggest thing we learned from the Bills is that they are a resilient bunch and did what they had to do to win instead of past years where they fold like a cheap lawn chair.
For news, articles and other "stuff"... BillsZone.com
5 people, one of which being Chris Mortensen, abstained. Wow.
Cowardly.
"Talk is cheap, we all know that. It's like I've always said, don't tell me about the labor pains, just show me the baby. That's what we've got to do. We've got to show you the baby, and the baby is winning." ~Buddy Nix
I think its time for the rest of us to realize that honesty gets you know where in this world, and those who are crooks, dishonest, manipulate and cheat are the one who have been rewarded the most in life.
Should we revists the whole banking and financial melt down....
If anything, Byrd winning the award would spark a holdout from his agent to rework his contract and then we'd end up trading him for a mid round pick in 2012...all while Chris Brown says "it had to be done to avoid distraction in Chan's locker room"

Shafted once without public knowledge of Cushing cheating.
Shafted twice with public knowledge of Cushing cheating.
What a slap in the face! Add that to the fact everyone pronounces his name wrong (it Jair - us, it's not Jair - e - yus) He's gonna be angry this year!!

It's also continually spelled Jarius. Yeah, so the Jerry-us/Jye-rus debate would piss me off too. My name isn't spelled Tym or pronounced Time. GET IT RIGHT

I don't think that's true. If so, you'd see a lot more of these suspensions (or none at all if the NFL was turning a blind eye to it). It was true in baseball because there was no testing until a few years back.
That's not to say that some of these guys don't game the system and run a cycle immediately following a random test, and thus are never caught. But I knew a lot of D-1 football players in college, and steroids were far less endemic to football than they are/were to baseball.
