Your body cannot maintain it's weight with the vigors of the NFL season. Players who play and practice every week and finish the season at or bigger than they started, you can take to the bank they are on roids, ESPECIALLY RB'S.
All he's doing though is creating an even playing field, do you really believe at 30 Tiki all of a sudden started running people over, and breaking tackle, after tackle? Come on now. I really am not bashing him for it, whats a player to do when everyone else he runs into is twice the size they should be?

I don't recall our discussions of Boston but I do remember not being at all surprised that he was juicing, the guy's arms were the size of tree trunks.
I guess you're also assuming I don't lift weights, but that's really not the issue.
Players lift weights during the season you know. Portis didn't get any bigger as the season went on as you seem to be indicating. He didn't even look that much bigger in '05 compared to '04, it's not like he gained 50 pounds and was trucking people each week.
15 pounds of muscle in 6 months isn't really that hard if you're a professional athlete and you have the benefit of working with personal trainers, nutritionists, etc.
