Is HGH unhealthy over time or does it actually help you construct a healthy body as you use it with a sensible diet and a reasonable workout plan? I don't really fully understand how it works. I'm wondering if it should be on the banned list or not.

Way to step out on a limb, there.

Look at you. Making a bold prediction about an elite WR.

Yeah and at 53 years of age if can help me with no bad side effects then I want some.

If taken properly and not abused it is very safe. It does not build muscle like roids but does help your body recover and repair much quicker.

Either way, Welker needs to sit... I'm fine with him coming back for week 3, but given the defense, it's likely best that he sits his noggin out of that game too.

He has a four game suspension. I know it is possible Welker could be back sooner but that is only if the NFL was able to get the rule put him changed. That's also contingent on the NFL retroactively shortening his suspension.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- With the terms of a new drug policy now in place, wide receiver Wes Welker returned to the Denver Broncos Friday night and is eligible to play Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs if the team chooses to put him in the lineup, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

This is so stupid. I he wasn't on the Dung-keys, and they weren't trying to gift wrap him a SB he would have to serve his full suspension as he did it before the rule changed. I don't know how a Dung-keys fan can even be proud if they happen to win a SB this year. Oh wait yes I do.... Cuz they're Dung-keys fans!!

I just don't see how this should be retroactive.

Denver going to the super bowl depends on Welker being available from weeks 2-4?

If he gets suspended, the Broncos will lose market share among 14 to 17 year-old teen girls in the high-income suburban geek market segment. Given the spending power of that segment, a Broncos setback could put them behind Johnny Manziel given his domination of the Texas roofie-buying 21 to 24 male market.

So yes, losing Welker from Weeks 2 through 4 could cost Denver a Super Bowl.

It gives them the extra weapon earlier. And their schedule is as hard as ours. You think it's not an advantage?? Plus what Rainman said!!

It was part of what the NFLPA bargained for...
