I really can't stand this guy..
I really can't stand this guy..
As long as he can back it up, he can say whatever he wants.
And he backs it up. Hes a stud CB.
Hold on a second. He violated drug testing by testing positive for adderall, then claimed the drug testing was ill-begotten, thus rendering him innocent of taking adderall. Yet, he goes and admits it. And we're suppose to say that's ok, he's a stud. Doesn't this beg the question, "How would he play without adderall, a performance enhancing drug?"!!!!
Adderall isnt a radioactive spider that grants super powers.
It helps with focus, it doesnt make you faster or stronger. With your argument, any of us could take some adderall and become NFL superstars.
With or without drugs, Sherman is an extremely talented CB. It doesnt matter.

My god you are so freaking clueless. It is a prescription drug that if not used for the right reason can have ill effects on the person and can become dangerous. That is why the NFL has put it on their list of banned substances. Stop acting like you know everything because some of the garbage you spew can be dangerous if someone actually listened.
By the way, you have now condoned smoking pot while driving and recreational use of Adderall. I think someone may have a problem.
Adderal isnt performance enhancing in the light of something like steroids. Would you be upset and call him using PED's if he was using nodoze before a game?
Banky, you site ******** government propaganda for your drug research so your one to talk.
Sure adderall can be dangerous for sherman, not sure how that is our business. Until you hurt others I dont care what drugs you take unless you are cheating - that is different IE steroids.
The actual concerns are whether it enhances his performance, which it doesnt. Next thing you know 5 hour energy will be banned for beind a PED. No more coffee, NFL players.
Adderall wont turn a mediocre player into a pro bowl CB was bodhas point and he was right.
Addiction. Observational studies suggest that one in nine people who smokes marijuana regularly becomes dependent on it. Research both in animals and in people provides evidence that marijuana is an addictive substance, especially when used for prolonged periods
Anxiety. Although many recreational users say that smoking marijuana calms them down, for others it has the opposite effect. In fact, the most commonly reported side effects of smoking marijuana are intense anxiety and panic attacks. Studies report that about 20% to 30% of recreational users experience such problems after smoking marijuana. The people most vulnerable are those who have never used marijuana before.
Psychosis. Marijuana exacerbates psychotic symptoms and worsens outcomes in patients already diagnosed with schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders. Several large observational studies also strongly suggest that using marijuana — particularly in the early teenage years — can increase risk of developing psychosis.
There's no question that recreational use of marijuana produces short-term problems with thinking, working memory, and executive function (the ability to focus and integrate different types of information). Although little research exists on medical marijuana, anecdotal reports indicate that some patients take the drug at night to avoid these types of problems.
Effects of Abuse
The consequences of Adderall abuse include irregular heartbeat, dangerously high blood pressure, and increased chances of cardiovascular failure or seizures. In some individuals, repeatedly taking high doses of Adderall can lead to feelings of hostility and paranoia
Considerations
More severe side effects that you should report to a doctor include: suicidal thoughts, confusion, chest pain or tightness, depression, more outgoing or aggressive behavior than normal, hallucinations, fainting, seizures, unexplained rash or hives, and uncontrolled movements.
Children who take Adderall also have a small risk of temporary slowing of growth and weight gain. Although this is usually slight (less than one inch or two pounds), a child's growth should still be monitored when he or she is taking Adderall.
So you don't like the source, so you attack me, classy. At least I had a source.

Hmm, same as what the other study I posted said.
More of the same.
I am not see much of a difference between my propaganda and the Havard Medical Journal
Man, I am not sure why the NFL does not want players taking this. They are just being big meanies.

More so just pointing out your childish attack calling bodha clueless. The marijuana reports you posted were a joke and your feverish attempts to strike it down as some horrible drug are comical along with the lines of adderall. The arguement isnt "is adderal bad for sherman" its "is adderall a PED?"
Bodha said nothing about the affects of adderall on shermans health, just stating it doesnt turn him into some super athlete and you attack the guy for a totally different reason than what he said.
for some reason that kind of behavior makes me want to chime in, that is all.
I'm very familiar with how marijuana works and what it does to the mind, im not claiming it to be good for you and perfectly harmless in any way. Some of those statements and studies are a joke though when looked at with a critical eye.
I guess you were unable to read all of my post about it since I feel pot should be legal. My post was to help with the misconceptions on both sides. The side made it appear harmless, while the other made it the worst thing ever. It is no more dangerous than drinking and what I posted was to point that out. I guess I should have been more clear.
But regardless, Bodha making posts that support people smoking and driving then saying that he has no problem taking a controlled substance while playing football, which had can have adverse side effects, is foolishness and irresponsible.
I guess if you want to defend that, that is your priority, I am done with this argument.
This!Hold on a second. He violated drug testing by testing positive for adderall, then claimed the drug testing was ill-begotten, thus rendering him innocent of taking adderall. Yet, he goes and admits it. And we're suppose to say that's ok, he's a stud. Doesn't this beg the question, "How would he play without adderall, a performance enhancing drug?"!!!!
I don't know where the NFL gets off needing to 'protect' its players from some pretty benign stuff. I mean really, poppy seeds on a sandwich? Some over the counter cold/flu medicine. So on and so forth.
Not this. Not this at all. He's denied the positive since the beginning and hadn't wavered in saying he didn't take it.
Didn't come remotely close to admitting anything in that interview ..... You can believe what you want, but he's done nothing but promote his innocence
