Florida’s Harvin & 2 USC linebackers fail drug test

are we all aware that this story was actually made up?

 

I was not, but if so, I guess I fell for the AJC April fool sports article of the week.
:rolleye33:

 

It wasnt confirmed until after you posted that so youre good.


The AJC was quoting NFL Draft Bible, who obviously made all of that up.

 

If I were Percy Harvin, I'd probably think that joke borders on defamation of character.

nothing, you can take steroids and have agents pay your players at USC. no wonder everyone wants to go to school there.

 

me too, hatch.

thing is, i thought april fool's jokes were supposed to be far fetched, not what everyone expects. :grin:

 

Shhhhhh......... V - ball's hibernating !!

 

Not sure about that but Vontae Davis probably isn't too happy either.

Good for them. It's not a joke when someone starts false rumors that potentially or actually affect someone's careeer. It doesn't take the president of the bar association to prove damages that are so easily quantifiable.

I wonder what the owners of that website were smoking when they came up with such a "cool" idea for a story.

Now if you want to read some good spoof and sarcasm... try the "New Orleans Levee"... they don't hold anything back !
