Re: Kenny Vacarro Facing 4-Game Suspension

Did any of you read this story that WhoDat!656 posted? Vacarro isn't facing any suspension at this point. The NFL violated the confidentiality clauses of the testing policy. There is not supposed to be ANY reporting of violations until after both samples have been tested AND an appeal has been heard AND denied. None of this has happened. We also do not know when this sample was taken. It could have been at any period, even pre-season.

Once again, if you take the time and read the article it mentions that the NFLPA has been waiting for the opportunity to challenge the league office over the policy for some time. It says that this may be the perfect opportunity. That said, even IF Vacarro's second sample also fails it could be months before it ever reaches the point of a suspension.

This is exactly why the confidentiality clause is in place. People are condemning the player when he has not even been convicted.

Pump your brakes, people. Chill out.

Also, consider the initial source of the report ... Ian Rapoport. This clown has swung and missed more than any so-called insider ever.
