Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing had his four-game suspension for taking a performance-enhancing drug upheld by the NFL on Thursday, which means he won't be eligible to play until October. The reigning Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year was suspended in May for testing positive for HCG, a fertility drug that is on the NFL's banned substances list.

Agreed... And, since he was pushing that "overtrained athlete" crap, and the NFL refused to accept that lie, shouldn't he be banned for more games for attempting to decieve the league twice?

If he paid someone for that excuse, he needs a refund.
