Refs and Roids

I don't mean to start a controversy, but in the face of the Mitchell report doesn't it seem strange that no one has yet addressed potential steroid abuse among NFL referees. I mean we've had at least one living example for many years, arguably the most popular ref in the NFL, Ed Hochuli.

Image:Ed Hochuli.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ya can't tell me he's all natural. The man is 57 years old, a trial attorney and has six kids! Where did he find the strength for that? And now we also have a 61 year old referee, Jim Quirk, putting Green Bay linebacker, Nick Barnett, in a rear naked choke that Chuck Liddell would envy. Even more stunning is the fact that the player threatened to file a grievance because he was subdued by a man twice his age!

YouTube - Nick Barnett taken out by Umpire Jim Quirk

I just wanted to assure everyone that I am absolutely serious about my concern for this issue and this is not some feeble attempt at comic relief for us before a monumental game against our archrival. Honest.

Re: Refs and Roids

What does it matter if refs re actually using steroids?? I mean, they ren't playing or anything like that.. In fact, I would not blame them if they use it, they do get hurt while reffing a game - gets hit by a huge guy with football pads, it gotta hurts..

Re: Refs and Roids

Can we discuss refs and Hemorrhoids?


I don't care if the refs are roiding out daily... as long as they don't interfere with the games any more than usual.

I DO think there are still ways NFL players are juicing. I think there's no way TO came back from that broken leg in like 4 weeks to play in the superbowl without some HGH or something...

I am astounded by your naivete! Next thing you'll tell me is that Jack LaLane was all natural and that the "Juicer" really leads to a healthier life style. Maybe you even think that education is the key to success in life. Me no think so. Me know better.
