Then you go on it for a while and realize when you quit why people have so much trouble getting off of it.
After that experience I was like, I'll deal with the pain, doc.
I said the same thing about the only time I took some when I was in the ER. I was given an injection of Tramadol and later Percocet. It didn't take long for me to immediately understand why people get completely lost in opiates.
Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of winning drastically go down. So you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus my 25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning. But then you take my 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3 per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning. The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you this Sunday!
Imagine the league drug tests Mahomes because of this statement and he gets popped for something against the rules and misses the AFCCG.
Now obviously, we all know the NFL would never do this, but its funny to imagine.
While Joe Montana still Joe Montana'd that game, a lot of the Bengals said that it caused a pretty sizable rift in the locker room and you have to wonder what would have happened if they came into the game fully focused on said game and not on Stanley Wilson relapsing.
Also, it was sloppy field conditions and he was a bruiser fullback who thrived during the season when they played in bad weather games. Just a sad story all around.

I feel like that was pretty obvious when he miraculously recovered from whatever shoulder injury he had, then gave a nonsense answer of "deer antler spray (lmao)" when asked how he recovered so fast
Before his last season in the NFL there was an Al-Jazeera report that Peyton Manning used HGH and other drugs to rehab from his neck injury. He supposedly was having these drugs mailed to his wife. This is also when his kids were being born so there's no way his pregnant wife was taking these steroids.
Basically the NFL took the stance that since it was mailed to his wife she has a right to privacy and they'd ignore it. Easy to do this since Peyton was retiring at the end of the year anyway. Peyton then threatened to sue Al-Jazeera and hired private investigators. They were then deposed 3 years after the story broke and basically corroborated the original report. So Peyton's own PIs think Al-Jazeera was right. Peyton ended up not suing.
The collective public has in general I guess decided to not give a shit as it doesn't really get brought up. Also I guess the NFL has really never cared about the sanctity or anything but still.
The hilarious thing (iirc) was the documentary was planned to focus on track-and-field, then one of the doctors they talked to named NFL players. Wasn't it Clay Matthews that was named as well?
Edit: [Link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJRPxmTuxoI) for those interested.
Pretty much our entire defense (sans secondary so Woodson and Tramon arent included) was named in the report. So I wouldn't necessarily call them performance enhancing whatever drugs they took
I have a hard time caring about drug use in the NFL. Maybe it's because it's such a gladiatorial, violent sport, as opposed to say cycling.
It might also be due to the NFL's totally lax testing policy, which I assume is easy to get around, meaning half the league is juicing anyway.
You have no idea what the Tour de France is. It's a calvary. And what's more, the way to the cross only had 14 stations — we've got 15. We suffer on the road. But do you want to see how we keep going? Wait...'
*From his bag he takes a phial.*
"That, that's cocaine for our eyes and chloroform for our gums..."
"Here,"
*said Ville, tipping out the contents of his bag*
"horse liniment to keep my knees warm. And pills? You want to see the pills?"
*They got out three boxes apiece.*
"In short," said Francis, "we run on dynamite.'
*Henri takes up the story.*
"You ever seen the baths at the finish? It's worth buying a ticket. You go in plastered with mud and you come out as white as a sheet. We're drained all the time by diarrhoea. Have a look at the water. We can't sleep at night. We're twitching as if we've got St Vitus's Dance. You see my shoelaces? They're leather, as hard as nails, but they're always breaking. So imagine what happens to our skin. And our toenails. I've lost six. They fall off a bit at a time all through the stage. They wouldn't treat mules the way we're treated. We're not weaklings, but my God, they treat us so brutally. And if I so much as stick a newspaper under my jersey at the start, they check to see it's still there at the finish. **One day they'll start putting lumps of lead in our pocket because God made men too light.**”

Henri Pélissier, Champion, Tour de France, 1923
I totally get it but will say the NFL isn't nearly as lax as the NBA. They basically stop testing after the all-star break so the players can take whatever they want to be fresh for the playoffs.
> I have a hard time caring about drug use in the NFL. Maybe it's because it's such a gladiatorial, violent sport, as opposed to say cycling.
I have a tough time caring about PED use in general in any sport.
I mean, I guess I care a little more in sports like boxing, football, MMA, etc….due to the violent nature, but it is what it is.
MLB seems to be the most unforgiving, but their players have been taking drugs and doing other stuff for an edge for so long. The only thing that really changes is the chemistry.
Much like the concussion issue, the problem for me isn't about what steroids do for/to the Tom Brady's and Patrick Mahomes' of the world. They made generational wealth, if they sacrificed their health, that's a sacrifice a lot of us would gladly make.
But if they're allowed to juice, eventually that forces the guys lower down who won't be able to retire off their NFL earnings to do the same. I would imagine by this point there is tremendous pressure on high school kids who are on the bubble of getting a scholarship to a D1 school or even to be accepted to an elite sports prep school to use PEDs to get an edge.
So I think we need to find a way to get a handle on it at the top because the unrealistic expectations PEDs create trickle down.
>as opposed to say cycling.
Keep in mind that the money talks. The nfl doesn't want to crack down on PEDs because steroids make for bigger, faster, stronger, players. We pay money to watch the best of the best. Cycling has had doping for ages, but when it moved on from meth to blood doping, they had to crack down severely. It wasn't because it helped people win, it was because the early blood dopers didn't know what they were doing. Cycling cracked down on blood doping because young riders in their early 20s were having heart attacks on the pro tour and that was bad for their image. This is why getting caught doping in the NFL is a few game suspension, but getting caught in cycling is a two year ban. If NFL players start killing themselves with steroids, you'll see more testing and harsher punishments.
Collective public also totally forgets that Peyton sexually assaulted one of his trainers in college and then spent decades making her life hell afterwards.
Like I just don’t get why Peyton gets a pass on everything.
Peyton is incredibly savvy at building and maintaining his "brand". Basically a much more successful version of the stuff that Russel Wilson tries to do. I've also never understood why he gets a pass for it, but people are into it.
If his name comes up on for the random test this week Goodell will swap the samples personally.
"Oh shit turns out he's on no drugs AND he's got great cholesterol"
Can you even take anything for an ankle sprain? I thought the ligaments stretch and you could screw yourself over long term if you don’t allow proper time to heal
Rest ice compression elevation. That's the recommended treatment. Lol Mahomes probably spent the last 4 days in and out of an ice bath every hour and getting his ankle rewrapped.
There's no competing with the star athlete with a professional athlete dad and personal trainer when you're a 5'6 135 pound 9th grader. Just gotta take that L.
Especially when it's a guy like Mahomes. I'm sure he had some stupid teenage moments, but everything I've heard was he was a stand up guy then. It would be no contest.
Seriously I used to work with a former D1 linebacker. He had pictures of him from his high school football years on his desk.
It's not normal for somebodies face to grow like 25% between when they're 17 and 22.
Extremely helpful after an injury but it isn’t fast acting enough to see that kind of improvement in a week. Even if he went nuts with like 20IU a day, the water retention would be too unmanageable
I think they are playing up his sprain to be worse than it actually is. Some sports medicine doc was in a thread saying if it was a true high ankle sprain he’d be in a walking boot at least or one of those scooter things for a week.
It could also be he sprained that area before. Whenever I get ankle sprains they aren't as painful after a day as the initial one that swelled like a balloon.
My guess is the injury is still there, but the Chiefs are downplaying it as a tactic to throw off the Bengals game planning. You don’t magically heal from a high ankle sprain.
Yep, had one in high school playing basketball and we heard it pop so we all thought it was broke. It immediately started swelling like a break (got real large and blue), but found out it was just a sprain. Then the doc gave me the bad news that I would have been better off with a break and he was right. It took over a year before it was truly healed.
Brady called Mahomes after he got injured to offer words of advice. Sorry, Bengals, we got the GOAT endorsement.
Edit: Now that I think about it maybe Brady gave Mahomes the secret (HGH)
Honestly Aaron Donald, DK, and AJ Brown are all clearly on gear. It’s not even the jacked thing it’s just the truth about it. DK said he eats tons of candy and looks like that… AJ Brown and DK are both too strong and too fast it makes no sense you should be a bad runner as your more jacked that’s how physics work. And tons of ppl have videos on Aaron Donald appearing to not be natural. But none of them have popped which is strange… MLB doesn’t let this stuff fly there testing is elite compared to the NBA and NFL. MLB makes combat sports testing look like a joke.
Why doesn’t anyone just say “Oh yeah Patrick’s ankle sprain was very minor. That’s how he was able to finish the game and have zero lingering effects the following week.”
The fact basketball and football players are able to recover from ACL injuries in a year (the whole process, surgery, recovery, reconditioning, etc.. in just 12 months)... well, if that is not a major proof these guys abuses PEDs, I don't know what else needs to be said. And honestly, I see no problem with that, PEDs improve the final product, it looks safer currently (who can really tell, Michael Jordan kinda looks healthy nowadays... maybe?)
Perc Mahomes
First of all, nobody touch my fuckin percosets! Second, does anybody have any fuckin percosets?
We gotta be fuckin’ biceps, triceps, arceps HARD!
Narc Bieniemy
Percs are the first drug I completely understood why people get addicted to them.
Had an injury and they gave me morphine and it was okay, transfer ER gave me iv dilaudid and I get why people get completely lost in it
Then you go on it for a while and realize when you quit why people have so much trouble getting off of it. After that experience I was like, I'll deal with the pain, doc.
Pretty universal experience I’ve heard from people who’ve tried it in that setting.
It's where I am. Them shits are heaven. You feel it becoming a priority quickly. I won't touch it unless they give it to me involuntarily.
I said the same thing about the only time I took some when I was in the ER. I was given an injection of Tramadol and later Percocet. It didn't take long for me to immediately understand why people get completely lost in opiates.
Perc Angle would like a word
Mahomes' ankle is in fact Kurt Angle's BROKEN FRICKIN NECK THAT HE WON AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL WITH. No wonder he's performing so well.
Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of winning drastically go down. So you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus my 25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning. But then you take my 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3 per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning. The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you this Sunday!

Imagine the league drug tests Mahomes because of this statement and he gets popped for something against the rules and misses the AFCCG. Now obviously, we all know the NFL would never do this, but its funny to imagine.
The league doesn't drug test during the playoffs. It's bad publicity to have someone suspended during the time when everyone is watching.
Come to think of it, you legit don’t hear about that happening. I buy it.
A bengals player got busted with coke a day or two before the Super Bowl in the 80s, and that’s the closest I can think of to match this.
To be the only one singled out using coke in the 80s means bro must’ve really been sloppy.
Must've been a damn blizzard where he was lmao
They caught him when he called teeners for the coin flip
They called it the Freezer Bowl for a reason.
That man must've been motorboating a pile of cocaine Scarface style in public.
Something something only in Ohio
It was in Miami. And it wasn't an arrest.
Didn’t realize the Dolphins had been using a Line coach for so long…
There were lines on the field, linebackers in his face. He was looking for an outlet, but he couldn't find a space! 🎶🎶🎶
Getting found with drugs in your possession is different from getting tested tho
Oh absolutely, that’s why I couldn’t cite an example of someone facing repercussions for it.
Stanley Wilson. He was coked out in his hotel room and Sam Wyche suspended him.
Stanley Wilson was Josh Gordon before Gordon’s parents even met. Banned from the league for substance abuse.
While Joe Montana still Joe Montana'd that game, a lot of the Bengals said that it caused a pretty sizable rift in the locker room and you have to wonder what would have happened if they came into the game fully focused on said game and not on Stanley Wilson relapsing. Also, it was sloppy field conditions and he was a bruiser fullback who thrived during the season when they played in bad weather games. Just a sad story all around.
They can keep it in a bag and quietly drop it in the middle of draft season and it'll disappear
"With the first pick in the 2023 NFL draft, Patrick mahomes is suspended btw, the bears select"
😂 “With the second pick in the 2023 NFL draft, he’s suspended 4 games fyi, the Texans select”
"With the third pick in the draft, we're also suspending Tom Brady four games, the Arizona Cardinals select..."
Tom Brady
"With the fifth pick in the NFL Draft ^(Tua Tagovialoa has announced his retirement from football at the age of 25) The Seattle Seahawks select..."
The most shocking part about this would be the Bears actually picking at 1.
Same reason that magically no players tested positive for covid in the playoffs during the pandemic.
Yes, they don't want ppl writing up headlines, 'Mahomes sneezed and tested positive for covid' so he missed the Championship Game. Oh well.
> The league doesn’t drug test during the playoffs https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2023/01/25/kansas-city-chiefs-jaylen-watson-afc-divisional-round-ped-test/
Idk if it became known because of testing, but we found out Ray Lewis’ PED use during the 2012 playoffs
I feel like that was pretty obvious when he miraculously recovered from whatever shoulder injury he had, then gave a nonsense answer of "deer antler spray (lmao)" when asked how he recovered so fast
Deer antler spray is the excuse Alabama used when their dynasty was first growing too!
Also, they really don't want to do it either.
Yeah they do apparently because Jaylon Watson got tested for making the 1 handed interception against Trevor Lawrence
He’s not a rookie DB he won’t catch a drug test
Rookie DBs can't catch much anyways.
Though some do it one handed!
Ya I mean we saw this when the NFL swept the Peyton's "wife" taking HGH under the rug.
Wait remind me of this story again?
Before his last season in the NFL there was an Al-Jazeera report that Peyton Manning used HGH and other drugs to rehab from his neck injury. He supposedly was having these drugs mailed to his wife. This is also when his kids were being born so there's no way his pregnant wife was taking these steroids.

If his name comes up on for the random test this week Goodell will swap the samples personally. "Oh shit turns out he's on no drugs AND he's got great cholesterol"
I feel like Mahomes could take almost literally anything (bedsides maybe tren or any anabolic steroids) and the NFL wouldn't bust him for it
“Fentanyl really gives me that pre-game lift I need”
Patrick Mahomes is great because he eats clen, trens hard, anavar gives up.
He doesn’t need to take anything banned. Injured players can take superhuman amounts of TRT without being busted for PEDs.
Someone check mrs mahomes' amazon orders
Agreed. Probably loading up on formula because Pat's using all the breast milk to heal.
Top post on r/nfl next week "Brittany Mahomes solely responsible for US formula shortage"
"She was filmed spraying fans with formula after the Bengals/Cheifs game"
Well at least it's formula, because if it wasn't, that'd definitely end up on... some very niche confusing subreddits
That’d be terrible! Where are these subreddit so I know which ones to stay away from?
Probably on a sub with lactating or lactation followed by porn or GW in its name
So you’re telling me Mitch Trubisky isn’t even the best titty kisser in his draft class?
Nah, Mitch knows how to drain a good titty, that’s why his ankles are fine while Mahomes is getting hurt.
Mitch was kissing titties before kids his age thought kissing titties was cool

Can you even take anything for an ankle sprain? I thought the ligaments stretch and you could screw yourself over long term if you don’t allow proper time to heal
High ankle sprain is usually microtears. Should you rest it? Yes. Yes you should. But ya know uh… playoffs.
Rest ice compression elevation. That's the recommended treatment. Lol Mahomes probably spent the last 4 days in and out of an ice bath every hour and getting his ankle rewrapped.
Foot rubs from Rex Ryan. He has a way with his hands.
Andy Reid smothered BBQ sauce on Mahomes toes....
Oh my god.
PICTURE IT!!
I was ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
well ive had enough internet for the day
Plus sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber + cocktail of peptides/sarms/GH
Stem cell injections
Everyone throws this off as a joke but I kinda low-key believe it.
Why doesn't he just spend a day in the hyperbolic chamber? Could heal up fully and even spend the better part of a year getting shredded

None of that matters. He’s healing so quickly solely because he’s been taking jazz baths with bath bombs.

But it *is* your Grandpa’s Jazz.
Dude has been with the same personal trainer since 4th grade. Bobby probably knows Mahomes body better than Brittany does.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Imagine going through elementary school and having a crush on a girl & finding out the other guy has a personal trainer.
There's no competing with the star athlete with a professional athlete dad and personal trainer when you're a 5'6 135 pound 9th grader. Just gotta take that L.
I was 5'4 in 9th grade now I'm like 6'1 life is unfair sometimes but I'm all for it
5'4 in 9th grade isn't terrible. I was 5'3 as a senior
Especially when it's a guy like Mahomes. I'm sure he had some stupid teenage moments, but everything I've heard was he was a stand up guy then. It would be no contest.
That’s hot
Collinsworth thought he was 2nd.
I don't think personal testicle licker qualifies as a trainer position.
Yeah but does he know it better than Travis?
Dude c'mon. We all know they're drugged to the moon with PEDs. It's not nutrition or personal trainers
he on that deer antler spray
Seriously I used to work with a former D1 linebacker. He had pictures of him from his high school football years on his desk. It's not normal for somebodies face to grow like 25% between when they're 17 and 22.

I know there's a solid chance it's pseudoscience but epsom salt baths really do feel great.
Oh my god he admit it! Paul... You have no... Good... Car... Ideas.
Going to be watching for Mahomes to flinch religiously now.
A good ankle that doesn't fly off your leg while you're scrambling. I think it's a good idea and I stand by

It’s called HGH.

[удалено]
I had never noticed 22 standing next to the unit
He’s retaining.
It's for his wife.
Could it be that it's simply not that bad of a sprain? Not a doctor so I haven't a clue.
It could be, but the nfl is notorious for prescription drugs just being used like candy
It’s wild though because a high ankle isn’t something you manage the pain of, it’ll severely impact your mobility and body movements.
I think they are playing up his sprain to be worse than it actually is. Some sports medicine doc was in a thread saying if it was a true high ankle sprain he’d be in a walking boot at least or one of those scooter things for a week.
Very true lol
It could also be he sprained that area before. Whenever I get ankle sprains they aren't as painful after a day as the initial one that swelled like a balloon.
The lede that continues to get buried.
My guess is the injury is still there, but the Chiefs are downplaying it as a tactic to throw off the Bengals game planning. You don’t magically heal from a high ankle sprain.
Depending on the severity of the sprain it’s sometimes better to literally break a bone than sprain
Yep, had one in high school playing basketball and we heard it pop so we all thought it was broke. It immediately started swelling like a break (got real large and blue), but found out it was just a sprain. Then the doc gave me the bad news that I would have been better off with a break and he was right. It took over a year before it was truly healed.
It’s ketchup
The secret to recovering is he doesn't actually have a high ankle sprain.
Brady called Mahomes after he got injured to offer words of advice. Sorry, Bengals, we got the GOAT endorsement. Edit: Now that I think about it maybe Brady gave Mahomes the secret (HGH)
The secret... *the spice melange...*
They know about the spice.
Random drug test incoming.
Nah, Goodell is probably prescribing them.
“Patrick you failed the test. Why the fuck aren’t you taking those drugs to make sure you’re healthy for Sunday. We need those ratings ffs”.
Prescribing, delivering and giving the shot in the butt.
They’d never drug test mahomes. Hes not some punter who kicked it 5 yards more than usual.
The league doesn't drug test in the playoffs. Nor does it drug test the faces of the league.
Honestly Aaron Donald, DK, and AJ Brown are all clearly on gear. It’s not even the jacked thing it’s just the truth about it. DK said he eats tons of candy and looks like that… AJ Brown and DK are both too strong and too fast it makes no sense you should be a bad runner as your more jacked that’s how physics work. And tons of ppl have videos on Aaron Donald appearing to not be natural. But none of them have popped which is strange… MLB doesn’t let this stuff fly there testing is elite compared to the NBA and NFL. MLB makes combat sports testing look like a joke.
