It looks like one of those buns you cant get a clean bite through. So you gotta like gnaw at it or it tears and while you're at it sauce goes everywhere.

quote:

Former Pittsburgh Steelers team physician Richard Rydze, MD, was charged for illegally distributing various drugs throughout his medical career, according to Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Here are six things to know:

1. The federal court jury deliberated for three days last week before ultimately convicting Dr. Rydze of all 180 counts charged against him.

2. Dr. Rydze formerly owned Pittsburgh-based Optimal Health Center and was found guilty of conspiring with other physicians to falsely diagnose patients with hormone imbalance and prescribe them steroids and human growth hormones.

3. Among his 180 counts, Dr. Rydze was also convicted of distributing oxycodone, Opana and other narcotics as well as obstructing justice by convincing his brother to lie to the FBI for him.

4. Dr. Rydze faces a second trial in U.S. District Court on healthcare fraud charges for false nerve stimulation machine prescriptions brought against him in 2015.

5. Dr. Rydze left the Steelers in 2007 after serving on the team's medical staff for over 20 years.

6. Judge Joy Flowers Conti will announce a sentencing at a later date.

After the Packers won 8 straight from letting Rodgers unleash the dragon I will be pretty drat disappointed if he isn't at least top 3. Granted, Brady will be 1. Von Miller may be 2.

I'm glad the Bengals lost.


I'm glad because I'm not sure I would be able to hold myself to this decision if they had won.


I had an amazing seat for the game, and was perfectly placed to see the hit made on Giovanni Bernard. This is a kid who has been every bit the upstanding citizen, and builds schools in Haiti with his wealth. What I realized when I was asked to watch a player lower his eyes to the grass and drive the crown of his helmet through Gio's head over and over is that the NFL doesn't care at all about these people. I guess I always knew that but it really drove the point home.

The NFL reviewed the play to see whether their idiotic notion of what is and isn't a catch was held to. They reviewed the play to see whether Gio's wrist touched the ground. They reviewed the play to see if he was able to hold on to a bit of leather as he lost consciousness. They forced us to watch Ryan Shazier do exactly what they claim to be trying to prevent over twenty times. I finally came to terms with the fact that the reason the NFL doesn't make a more serious effort to enforce these penalties is because they don't give a drat about Giovanni Bernard. As I watched fans throw cans and bottles at the officials I realized that had more to do with the colors on the uniforms than the fact that that one hit will almost certainly have a major impact on the kid's life. I like the team because I like the players.

Players don't give a poo poo about personal fouls because they're called arbitrarily, and until the NFL makes personal fouls reviewable I am not consuming another second of football. I should stop outright regardless, but I love the game. I will miss chatting with y'all but I can't justify following a sport that has such flagrant disregard for the welfare of its players. I'll see y'all in other subforums.

I'm glad to see you think that this kid who has been every bit the upstanding citizen, and builds schools in Haiti with his wealth doesn't deserve effective pain management

Good thing NFL players misuse opiods 4x as much as the general population post-career. Wouldn't want them to use something dangerous like the reefer.

The DEA and FBI investigation into NFL team doctors is nothing more than a witch hunt. Opioids are fantastic wonder drug that have been proven to be the only effective pain management through millennia of use. They would be made available OTC if it weren't for big pharma. Corporations have engaged in a propaganda campaign to con local governments into purchasing the over priced and dangerous drug narcan.

Josh Gordon is a cautionary tale in the use of cannabis.

Didn't use enough weed then, obviously. Five gallons of weed oil and a plunger will clear that right up

Anyway when I'm made commissioner, weed will be accepted and rehab will be covered by my League Wide Health Insurance Policy so that former players can get help for their playing-caused opioid or weed problems

Also Mike Brown will be put in full pads as an RB once a game and every yard he gains will save him $1 million in cap money so he actually tries
