edjr 5,564 Posted July 22, 2016 crassic, http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/07/22/report-leveon-bell-faces-four-game-suspension-currently-appealing/ The Steelers may have to start the season without running back Le’Veon Bell. Bell is facing a four-game suspension for a missed drug test, Dan Graziano of ESPN reports. Under the NFL’s substance-abuse policy, players can be disciplined not only if they test positive, but also if they do not make themselves available for a test. Bell has had limited success appealing a suspension once before: He was initially suspended for the first three games of last season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy after he was arrested for marijuana possession and DUI, but he appealed and got that suspension reduced to two games. If Bell doesn’t win this appeal, he’ll miss the first four games of this season, against Washington, Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Kansas City. With Bell out, the Steelers would rely on backup running backs DeAngelo Williams and Fitzgerald Toussaint. The Steelers have already lost one important offensive player to the substance-abuse policy, as receiver Martavis Bryant is suspended for the entire season.

From what I understand these guys know darn well when they are likely to be tested, they can EASILY prepare for it, the fact that he could not contain himself (an assumption) is indicative of a larger problem. Now we are all presuming he actively missed this, there may well be a good reason for it.....maybe he was destroying Tom Brady's cell phone in a bathroom by bashing it to pieces with a bag full of under inflated footballs while Bellicheat filmed it.....

Speaking from my own experiences. When you're high, you don't give a fock, you just don't. You think you can beat the system, you won't get caught, you're impervious.

GobbleDog 816 Posted July 22, 2016 Pot doesn't enhance performance... so what's the bloody point in the NFL testing for it? How does the NFL benefit... helps their image.?. Seems pointless. The Player's Union should get that removed. As for Bell... what an idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTSkiBum 1,594 Posted July 23, 2016 is the test simply for marijuana or performance enhancing drugs? The test is for all drugs, but bell is a pot head. The reason Blount was cut from the steelers is because him and bell were caught smoking seed together. The steelers tried to remove him as an influence.
