I never said all of the player on Pittsburgh are juiced up. Let's say three of their top eight players used performance enhancers. That's still a big advantage.

As I already stated I think a ton of players have been cheating.

It's only a prediction anyways.
Well, what do you think he's supposed to take from this line?

"Pittsburgh Steelers - Don't believe that a team can sustain this level of physical freak dominance for such a sustained period of time. Solid players arrive on this team and in three years they are superior athletes. Over and over."

Yeah except I explained my thought process just a little more than that.

I didn't just say Harrison must be a cheater because he is a beast pass rusher now did I?

I said it's suspect for the guy to arrive in the NFL undrafted out of nowhere and the next thing you know he is one of the most gifted athletes in the league.

I didn't say all the Steelers cheat. I said average players show up on that team and over time their physical ability puts them on a whole different level. I find that very suspect.

Sure you can argue it's all hard work.

Barry Bonds can make that argument as well.

No not really.You might not have said "all Steelers cheat" but you implied it, as with saying the Giants and Ravens see above
I don't know what you call an average player but the pro game is differnt and has different work outs ,some players thrive in it .....some don't,doesn't mean it's pharmaceutically induced.

In no way did I imply that ALL players on a certain team cheat.
