(Bye week) Honest Opinion - Joe Bachie

At first, I was giddy.   Star MSU player getting in trouble.  You were all probably excited   

if it was a criminal case, screw him, screw MSU.  Totally expected. 

But seeing that it APPEARS TO BE on appeal (or even a mistake) for something that most big programs do anyway and MSU, B1G and the NCAA routinely take advantage of, amassing huge profit, from having a doped-up All American, I say screw the NCAA.  

And if they used the drugs to allow previous white middle linebacker to play in games, then screw the NCAA again.  

stupid NCAA rules... let the f@cking kids enhance their performance!

and also screw MSU

That's a non-sequitur, but you still came to the right conclusion.  If the NFL is perfectly happy to draft players that have been caught using PEDs, it absolutely makes sense to use PEDs.  This is especially true if you play for a school that isn't expected to compete for a playoff spot.  You get half the season to show the NFL that you're a good player, and then you avoid injury by missing the last few games of the season which don't matter anyway.

Is your stance peds should be able to be used in the ncaa? I’m not 100% sure what you are getting at. 
 

A lot of players use but the ncaa has rules and it’s not that hard to avoid getting popped.

The actual testing process for PEDs is part of the problem. With the money that is at stake getting drafted and signed in the NFL, as long as testing is random, and there is a shot to beat it, guys will take that chance. Bachie is one of those that was willing to take that chance and got nabbed but there are plenty more out there.

Typical spartan scum.  if the program had a clean history of steriods, they might get the benefit of the doubt.  But they don't, particularly w/ white line backers.
