He was taking a different suppliment.

Along those line i totaly disagree with the govt stepping on this. Players have access to a complete list of safe products and their manufacturers, 24 hour hotline for suppliment questions, and their trainers are supposed to be an official source also. They chose to take a supliment not on the list. Granted the label did not list the ingredient that is the cause of this, but it could have been avoided none the less.

It is also the governments fault because of the crappy FDA regulations which do not require the companies to list all ingredients on the bottle or supply a list with the product on the shelf.

The players known better and now they are throwing a hissy fit. I am going to laugh my but off if the league gets this cleared up and tells the players their suspensions will take effect immediatly through the post season, if applicable, and into the next regular season.
