Every player get randomly tested several times each year. Morstead just like sharing it.

Not really. During the season these random requests come immediately after a game. He'll probably get tested several more times this season, as does every player. The chances that he has an outstanding game immediately prior is pretty high since he routinely has stellar games. He seems to enjoy sharing the notifications when they coincide with those good games or such. If he had one punt for a net 25 yards he would have still gotten the notification but wouldn't have shared the fact.

YEP. PEDs really help you to drop punts inside the 5 yard line.

You are the voice of reason again. However, we conspiracy theorists would appreciate it if you would stop confusing us with facts.

Drew was also tested after his record performance and he also pointed out that it was "random". I have no doubt that there were phone calls made.

For punters not named Morstead they actually do...

Friend of mine who's Dad was a former original Saint, says the guy (Morstead) works out like a beast...

Always laugh when he's told me that because he follows with ...punters never worked out like that when we were growing up...

And I always reply, ...punters didn't get paid like him when we were growing up either...

Know he mishandled some snap exchanges yesterday, but those punts were killer in the field position game early on in the game...

"Yes, our punter is clean, and he really is that good."

I mean shoot, I am cheering and hollering after half of his punts. Who does that?
