NFLPA Again Blames League For Lack Of HGH Testing Agreement

The NFLPA in an e-mail to players sent Friday "once again blamed the league" for the fact that there is not a "comprehensive drug policy" that includes HGH testing. The NFLPA noted that the NFL is "refusing to give up Commissioner Roger Goodell's authority over appeals not related to positive drug tests." The e-mail states, "We are on the verge of another year without a safer and cleaner game because the NFL refuses to commit to fair due process for players who choose to appeal NFL discipline for alleged drug policies violations" (USATODAY.com, 7/25).
