I am sorry, but we are just not going to agree on this. I should not have to go any further than the label to determine what I am getting, and honestly, I would not. These two men did a heck of a lot more research than I would have done on those supplements and did not receive any information that would lead them to believe that the substance was 1 in the product or 2 banned by the league.

If you want to get real nit picky then you might have an argument that they should have waited for a definite answer from the league before taking the supplement. If that is the case though, then the league needs to provide a timely response.

If I were to make a ruling on this, then the Williams's would be innocent...this time. The league would be responsible for notifying players of a banned substance in a more timely fashion. Players would be obligated to wait for a definitive answer from the league before "assuming" that a supplement does not have a banned substance. Any company that is found not to list all substances contained in the product on its label would be fined.

If I were the Williams's I would sue the supplement company if they have not already done so.
