keggerz Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_18740447 ...According to the union official, the NFL and the players association would distinguish the offenses in the new policy and implement a two-tiered system of discipline - two-game suspensions for testing positive for diuretics, six games for testing positive for steroids.

Savage Beatings Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 They've had plenty of time to figure this crap out... why aren't they telling the respective teams what to expect for these suspensions?
