Re: Mark Ingram is back and 'ready to work' with the Saints

I love Ingram. Don't get me wrong. Roll Tide! And don't get dinged up!
He was tested during the season and never tested positive for anything. It wasn't until after the final playoff game that he had a failed test. Cris Carter, a very close friend of the family, confirmed that it was a banned cold medicine that triggered the test. It absolutely was not steroids.
I get regular steroid injections for some cervical issues and they stay in your system for quite some time. To have any real "positive" physical impact from steroids you would have to really load up on them.
