Default Cushing = juicer

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/...t/6995505.html

4 game suspension.

Guess that explains why he was so good last year.

This sucks.

Ben Roethlisberger only got 2 more games for raping women. No big deal.

If we know Cushing, this will only drive him to be even better. Watch out offensive players.

What did he test positive for? Steroids? For all we know, he could have taken a banned allergy medicine. Bad title of thread.

This does not surprise me. I have been reading/hearing rumor about Cushing and steroids since the first time I ever heard his name. Where there is smoke, there is fire.

I don't like this for the Texans. They need to start off strong with that rough schedule, and Cushing is not the player they need to lose.

hate they are losing him for 4 games- dont care if he is 'on'. honestly I think this could happen to any elite player in the NFL. Doesn't effect my opinion of him at all.

I'm not saying he did not test positive for steroids. I just brought up the fact it could be numerous other things.

I agree 100%, I could care less what they are on as long as they play their asses off and put on a good game. I have a buddy that plays for the Texans and he went from a scrawny high school kid to a massive dude in the time of a few years, I suspected him of using at times, but hell who knows...

Every report I've seen so far said steroids. Weed does not count as a PED.

I was just joking. I'm well aware of that. LOL

Cushing claims it was a "non-steroidal" substance.

well, he tested positive in April 09, about a week after the combine tryouts, but the Texans still drafted him.

From what I heard, he tested positive for a substance before the draft that the league has put a ban on. Cushing tried to appeal his case or something like that.
