-25% of the supplements tested had small amounts of steroids in them and 11% has banned substances...Maybe all those athletes who claim "it was something in their supplements" were onto something? (USA Today)

-Pats CB Asante Samuel won his right to become an unrestricted free agent after this season. He signed a one year tenure this season that states if the pats won 12games this season, he would earn that right. Could this mean Asante could join his old defensive backs coach/ defensive coordinator Mangini in Gotham? If they offer him Nate Clements money then why not. Pro Football Talk

-Nats have been making a lot of really bold moves so far this off season being very pro(?)active on the trade market. They traded for Mets lightning rod Lastings Milledge while getting rid of some ridiculous contracts and traded for possible 3-5 starter Tyler Clippard.

Considering they took on Lastings Questionable (although i thought entirely misinterpreted for intensity and excitement for the game) Attitude and were willing to bring on the notorious bad boy of the minor leagues, it appears the Nationals are willing to sacrifice character for skill and frankly with their attendance quickly dwindling before they even move to their new park, do they have any other choice?
